The Best IPTV app?

by GusGus317

So I keep going back and fourth on what hardware device to buy next for my IPTV needs. I boil it down to Formuler z7+ or Buzz TV with the Nvidia shield being on the radar aswell..

After all of the research and reviews, I've come to the realization that I stear towards the Formuler and Buzz due to one reason.. Their IPTV app.

So leads me to my question... Besides perfect player and stbemu what other IPTV apk's are out there (paid or not) that would get me to as close to what Buzz and Formula give me in terms of user experience ?

Also, with most providers now developing their own apk's is it a matter of time before the providers apk is just as good as the Buzz/Formuler experience?

Thanks for the read and any suggestions is appreciated!

I just got tired of dicking around with all the other . Apks and ordered a Formuler z7+. Everyone says it's the best no dicking around cable TV like setup that just seems to work. We shall see.

Nothing, because Formuler at least has a forum where you can discuss things with other users, and they put out updates, and fixes, sometimes weekly. The apps in the google play store, not so much. You are left at the whim of the single developer who might have just coded the app for fun. The providers apk's are nothing more than modded versions of kodi.

the only app I've found that is close to Dreamlink (ie Formuler) is IPTV Smarters Pro from the playstore. It's free and works with most XC based providers.

Nice, simple interface that supports catchup too.

Other than that STBEmu which is ok but has a horrible UI

The problem isn't that other programs can't mimic the design of the Formuler or Buzz GUI. The problem is that android boxes have garbage 5 button remotes with no functionality and the apps designed for those boxes are designed to work with those shitty remotes.

What makes the Formuler and Buzz boxes great isn't just the software, its the fact you have a proper remote that works like a cable box.

Just bite the bullet and buy the Z7+. You won't regret it. Its a great box for basic IPTV and android. Its not perfect, but its as good as you can get in this game in my opinion...except for Enigma2, but nobody wants to work that hard! haha
