Samsung and LG smart TVs don’t have Shamel TV Pro in their app stores, but you can still use it on both. The app has a TV version that runs in the built-in web browser, and it is designed to be controlled with a remote. This guide shows you how to open it, sign in without typing on the remote, and keep it one click away. If you’d rather use a separate IPTV player on your TV, see our guide to IPTV players on Samsung and LG TVs. This article is about the Shamel TV Pro app itself.
Why Samsung and LG Use the Browser
Samsung TVs run Tizen and LG TVs run webOS. Each has its own app store with its own rules, and Tizen and webOS do not run Android apps. That’s why there is no APK to install. Instead, Shamel TV Pro is available as a web app, and the TV version at shamel-tv.com/app/tv has a layout built for a big screen and a remote control.
What You Need
- A Samsung or LG smart TV connected to the internet.
- Your TV remote.
- A phone, for the quickest sign-in (optional but recommended).
- A Shamel TV subscription or a free trial.
How to Open Shamel TV Pro on a Samsung TV
- Press the Home button on your Samsung remote.
- Open the built-in Internet app.
- Go to shamel-tv.com/app/tv using the address bar.
- Wait for the Shamel TV Pro home screen to load.
- Bookmark the page so you can return to it in one step.
How to Open Shamel TV Pro on an LG TV
- Press the Home button on your LG remote.
- Open the built-in Web Browser app.
- Go to shamel-tv.com/app/tv.
- Wait for the Shamel TV Pro home screen to load.
- Bookmark the page for quick access.
Menu names and the position of the bookmark option vary between model years and software versions, so look for the star or bookmark icon in the browser’s menu.
What You’ll See on the TV Screen
The TV version of the app uses a simple top menu: Live TV, Movies, Series, Account and Help. Live TV opens first, so you can start with your channels right away. Use the arrow keys on your remote to move between items and press OK to open one. The BACK button returns you to the previous screen.
Sign In or Start a Free Trial Without Typing
Entering email addresses and passwords with a TV remote is slow. Use your phone instead:
- On the TV, open Account.
- Scan the QR code with your phone’s camera.
- On your phone, sign in, start a free trial, or renew.
- Return to the TV, which signs in automatically.
New users can start a trial from the same screen. Existing customers can sign in with their account email. You can also request a trial on the trial page, or compare plans on the subscription page. To judge the service properly during the trial, our guide on what to test in an IPTV free trial helps.
Change the Language on Your TV
Shamel TV Pro is available in six languages. On the TV, open Help, choose Language, and select yours with the arrow keys and OK. Our article on the six languages in Shamel TV Pro explains how the language settings work.
Tips for Smoother Playback
Update the TV. Open the TV’s settings and install any pending software update. A current browser version handles web apps better.
Use a wired connection if possible. A LAN cable is more stable than Wi-Fi, especially for live sports. If you must use Wi-Fi, stay close to the router. Our buffering troubleshooting guide explains how to find the cause of lag.
Close other apps. TV processors are weaker than phones, and background apps use memory.
Clear the browser cache from the browser’s settings if the page loads slowly or looks outdated.
When a Streaming Device Is the Better Choice
A TV browser works, but it is not as fast as a dedicated streaming device. If you notice slow menus or choppy video, plug a Fire TV Stick or Google TV box into an HDMI port and install the full app. Our guides explain how to do it on a Firestick and on Android TV. You can also read the Shamel TV Pro app guide for an overview.
Troubleshooting
The page doesn’t load. Check the spelling of the address and make sure the TV is online. Try opening another website in the same browser.
The QR code won’t scan. Move your phone back a little and make sure the code is fully on screen. You can also open the Account page on a phone or computer and sign in there.
The video stutters. Use a wired connection, close other apps, or switch to a Fire TV Stick or Google TV device.
Some remote buttons don’t respond. Browsers on TVs handle some buttons differently from the app. Use the arrow keys, OK and BACK, which work on the TV version.
For other problems, use our IPTV troubleshooting checklist. Support is also available 24/7 through the Telegram link on our website.
Keep Your Account Safe
Open the app only through the official address, use a strong, unique password, and never share your login. If you share a TV with others, sign out when you finish. See our IPTV account security guide.
