Smarters Player Lite is what IPTV Smarters is called on Apple hardware, and it costs nothing in the App Store.

Why will a channel not play on my iPhone when it works on the TV?
Some streams use formats Apple handles differently. Try switching the stream format in settings, or use GSE Smart IPTV for that channel.
Can I use it on a Mac?
Apple silicon Macs can run some iPad apps from the Mac App Store. If it is not listed there, use VLC or a desktop player.
