Installation of Simply Exciting S-TV has been completed successfully,
Make sure that you have your App login credentials with you and follow the next steps:
- When the app is launched you will be asked to choose a Device Type, you can always switch back and forth in the app settings to your preference but choose TV.
- On the Next Screen, you will be asked to put in a Name, Username and Password, Connect VPN, List Users.
Note: Do not use the Connect VPN option from the App.
- Type in “Simply Exciting” in the Any Name box, then the App Username and Password and hit the Add User button.
Ignore the Connect VPN & List Users button at this time, but as you get familiar with using the S-TV app you will understand what these buttons are for.
- Now the Playlist (tv guide also referred to as EPG) will be added. Each section (Live TV, Movies, Series) is done manually. Once done you are ready to view any section. Updating the TV Guide is done whenever you need to by just clicking on it.
- Once the Content is Downloaded you will be able to access each section, so go to Live TV, Movies, or Series. IF THE S-TV APP IS SLOW OR DOES NOT RESPOND ACCORDINGLY --- READ BELOW.
The services provided have thousands of channels & movies all categorized into what are referred to as Bouquets. The more Bouquets enabled the slower the app will respond. Disabling Bouquets / Categories will make the S-TV app run better.
SLOW APP RESPONSE FIX
THE KEY TO HAVING A GREAT EXPERIENCE IS DONE BY ONLY ENABLING THE BOUQUETS THAT YOU NEED TO WATCH OR VIEW.
ENABLING / DISABLING BOUQUETS OR CATEGORIES
You can customize your viewing of Bouquets or Categories by enabling or disabling them under “Parental Controls” within the S-TV app settings. Simply click on the “Settings” gear in the upper right corner of the main screen, then select “Parental Control”.
- You will have to create a password for Parental Control and enter it twice, then click save. (remember this if you want to enable/disable categories)
- Notice each Bouquet / Category has an open lock on the right. Go through the entire list and click on each that you want to disable (block from viewing), or click again to re-enable. You can also come back and re-enable. Reducing the amount of Bouquets/Categories will make the app run faster and more responsive.
Additional Note: You may request to have Bouquets/Categories permanantly removed from your account simplifying your S-TV app. Currently we offer to remove International Bouquets/Categories and Adult Bouquets/Categories. If you would like either of these removed please use the chat icon on the website homepage.
Additional Note: Username and Passwords are case sensitive please ensure that you are using the credentials as they are given in the email without making changes on your end.
