Installation, step by step

  1. Google Play

    Search for “Nipo Player” on Google Play and install it like any other app.

  2. Or the APK file

    An APK file is offered on this page for manual install.

  3. First launch

    Open Nipo Player: the home screen appears, ready for you to add a playlist.

Android

First setup: your phone as a remote

From Settings, or by scanning the QR code Nipo shows on a TV, the phone becomes a remote: arrows, OK, Back, typing into fields and voice search, no retyping the playlist. The paired TV is remembered, for a one-tap reconnect.

Phone pairing page: entering the playlist

Touch controls

On phone and tablet, everything is touch-driven; some gestures echo the TV experience.

Long-press

On a channel or a poster, holding it opens a quick menu (favourite, hide, move).

Télécommande

From Home, the “Télécommande” pill opens the touch remote for the paired TV: scan its QR code or type its code to connect.

Remembered TV

Once paired, one tap reconnects as long as Nipo stays open on the TV.

TV guide

The guide shows as a simple list on phones, easier to read than a grid on a small screen.

When something goes wrong

  • The phone remote doesn’t drive the native player

    It works for navigation and menus, but not for the native Android player’s controls on the TV.

  • Nothing happens when opening a channel

    Nipo shows a step-by-step diagnosis (connection, account, channel) and a report you can copy for support.

  • The list takes time to open

    On very large playlists (tens of thousands of entries), loading happens in the background; the list shows as soon as it’s ready, without blocking.

Does Nipo provide channels?

How do I install an M3U player on Android?

Search for “Nipo Player” on Google Play and install it like any other app.

Can I watch directly on my phone?

Yes, Nipo plays your playlists on phone and tablet, not only as a remote.
