IBO XPlayer Subscription Expired: What It Means
There are two different “expired” messages, and they have different fixes:
- The app stops after the trial (After your trial period a license is needed to purchase): this is the IBO XPlayer license. Check Application Expiry at the bottom left of the home screen. Ask your IPTV provider to activate it (free with most 6- or 12-month plans), or buy it yourself.
- “Your playlist will expire” or the channels stop: this is your IPTV subscription, shown as Playlist Expiry at the bottom right. The app says it itself: the playlist expiry date is unrelated to your application license. Renew with your IPTV provider.
How to Renew Your IBO XPlayer Subscription
- Renew your IPTV subscription with your provider before the Playlist Expiry date. Choose 6 or 12 months and ask them to (re)activate IBO XPlayer for free at the same time.
- Your Xtream Codes or M3U URL usually stay the same, so you don’t need to add the playlist again. If they change, update it on the IBO XPlayer website.
- On the home screen, select the refresh icon to load the renewed playlist.
Is There a Free IBO XPlayer Subscription?
