Internet Protocol Television ( IPTV ) offers a convenient way to access a wide range of television channels through the internet. SMART STB is a popular app that allows users to emulate a set-top box on various devices, providing an efficient and cost-effective way to enjoy IPTV services . This guide will walk you through the process of installing and configuring your IPTV subscription on SMART STB, ensuring a smooth and enjoyable viewing experience.
When you first install SMART STB, a digital TV service, you get a 7-day free trial period. This period allows you to test the features and decide whether you want to continue using the service.
However, if you decide to continue using SMART STB after the trial period, you must activate it permanently by paying an amount of 12 euros. If you do not activate within 7 days after the end of the trial period, you will need to obtain a new activation code.
Please note that if you get a new activation code, it will not give you a new free 7-day usage period. You will have to pay the amount of 12 euros directly to activate the service permanently.
Activation of SMART STB will be done in the App Developer Portal, where you can follow the necessary steps to activate the service. We hope this information will be useful for you to take full advantage of SMART STB.
