LaLiga accused IPTV Smarters Pro of enabling access to unauthorized streams of its football matches and other premium TV content. A police unit specializing in copyright crimes provided evidence of infringement.
Prior to this, in early 2022, LaLiga had submitted a list of allegedly infringing IPTV services, streaming sites and video player apps to the European Commission, which included IPTV Smarters Pro.
As of January 2023, only the “Smarters Player Lite” version of the app can be found on the Google Play Store, while IPTV Smarters Pro has been removed.
However, you can still download and install IPTV Smarters Pro on your Android TV and phone devices by side-loading the APK file:
