This tutorial explains how to configure a VPN on IPTV Smarters app or IPTV Smarters Pro app using the OpenVPN protocol for Android TV, TV boxes, or FireStick devices.
This approach is somewhat technical and generally unnecessary for casual users. It enables VPN integration directly inside the IPTV Smarters application. (Not advised for novices or those unfamiliar with technology)
Simpler options exist, such as installing dedicated VPN applications like NordVPN or ExpressVPN, which are more user-friendly and widely adopted. However, if you specifically want to utilize the built-in VPN feature within IPTV Smarters, proceed with the instructions below.
Step 1: Download VPN Configuration Files

- Acquire the OpenVPN server configuration files from your preferred VPN service.
