How it works
Install, scan the QR code, watch
No typing addresses and passwords with the remote: your phone does the boring part.
-
Step 1: Install the app on your TV
Open AshyTV. The first time, the TV shows a QR code and an activation code.
-
Step 2: Scan the QR code with your phone
Sign in or create your account in the panel, confirm it's your TV and choose the licence.
-
Step 3: Watch
The list reaches the TV on its own. Changed something in the panel? The TV updates without you touching anything.
One licence per TV — pick yours:
- Partner code. Your service provider already takes care of the licence: enter the code they gave you and you're done.
- Personal licence. For people who use their own list (M3U or Xtream Codes) without a partner.
For viewers
Everything you expect from a great player
Made for the remote control, designed not to freeze and to make the TV yours.

FAQ
Questions and answers
Does AshyTV sell or provide channels and lists?
No. AshyTV is only the player, like any video player. It does not sell, host or provide channels, movies, series or lists. You use the lists you are entitled to use, from your own service provider. The only exception is Free TV, which points only to channels that broadcasters themselves make available for free and to openly licensed or public-domain works.
Which TVs and devices are supported?
Samsung Smart TVs with Tizen 4 or newer and LG with webOS 4 or newer (usually 2018 models onwards, Samsung projectors included), Android TV or Google TV devices (Android 6 or newer: TVs, boxes and sticks) and Linux computers.
How do I activate my TV?
Open the app on the TV, scan the QR code with your phone (or go to painel.ashytv.com/ativar and type the code on screen), sign in, confirm the TV and choose the licence. Within seconds the list reaches the TV.
What happens if the server goes down?
If a channel stalls, AshyTV reconnects by itself. If the server (DNS) stops responding, the TV automatically moves to the next server registered by your provider, in priority order, and keeps playing — without you doing anything.
What are multiple DNS for?
Partners can register up to 5 servers (DNS) with priority. The panel tests each one every 5 minutes, shows whether it's online, slow or offline, notifies when it goes down or comes back, and every customer's TV uses the next one on the list when one fails. Changing them all at once takes one click.
What if the internet or the panel goes down?
Video needs the internet, of course. But if only the panel is unreachable, the TV keeps working normally for up to 72 hours after its last check.
What's the difference between a partner code and a personal licence?
With a partner code, the TV licence belongs to your service provider: they give you the code and the settings come ready. A personal licence is for people who want to use their own M3U or Xtream Codes list on their own.
I got a new TV. Do I need another licence?
No. When activating the new TV, choose “replaces a TV I already have”: the licence moves to the new TV without taking another slot. You can also unlink a TV from the app itself, in Settings.
Is my data safe?
Activation is bound to the TV's hardware (copied, it won't work on another device), your list's password is encrypted and TV identifiers are stored only as hashes. What you watch never goes through our servers, there are no ads or trackers, and on Android TV and Linux you can turn on secure DNS (DNS-over-HTTPS). Details in the Privacy Policy.
I'm a partner. Do you manage my customers' IPTV accounts?
No. You keep your own account system. AshyTV provides the player, the licence panel, your servers (DNS) and the TVs' settings.
Does the Linux version need activation too?
No. AshyTV for Linux is free and open source: you add your lists right in the app. The code is at github.com/big-comm/ashytv.
