How to Install Sapphire Secure IPTV on FireStick / Android 2020
In this guide, you will learn to install Sapphire Secure IPTV on FireStick and other Fire TV devices, such as Fire Stick 4K and Fire TV Cube. The guide also briefly covers the installation process for Android TV Boxes, Smart Android TVs, Android Mobiles & Tablets, and iOS Devices.
Sapphire Secure is an IPTV service that offers you access to more than 4000 live satellite channels. It is one of the most cost-effective IPTV services for FireStick starting at $5 every month.
This IPTV service has its own Android app. Since it is a third-party service, you will not find it in the official stores like Amazon Store, Google Play Store, or Apple Store.
This guide will help you through the manual installation process of Sapphire Secure on FireStick and other devices using the sideloading technique.
I have also provided the steps to recover/reset passwords related to Sapphire Secure. In addition, you will also find the instructions to find the M3U and EPG playlists, which can be used with IPTV applications like IPTV Smarters.
Sapphire Secure does not have an iOS app. However, with IPTV Smarters, you can use this service on your iOS device as well.
How to install Sapphire Secure IPTV on FireStick
There will be two parts of this process as follows:
- Part 1: Sign up for Sapphire Secure service

Part 1: Sign up for Sapphire Secure IPTV Service
In this part of the process, you will need to choose a subscription plan and register an account with Sapphire Secure.
On a computer or mobile go to the Sapphire Secure signup website www.husham.com/sapphireiptv
Choose the plan you want to buy and click Order Now
Here is what you would want to know about the plans:
- There are three types of plans: Silver, Gold, and Platinum
- Each plan has a Plus+ variant, which also includes adult or mature content
- For instance, Silver and Silver Plus+ plans are essentially the same with the exception that the Plus+ plan also includes adult content
- The website count in the plan description indicates the number of allowed simultaneous connections. For example, the Silver plan allows only 1 connection, Gold allows up to 3 connections, and Platinum offers up to 5 connections
- So, if you need to share Sapphire Secure with your family or friends, choose the Gold or Platinum plan
- If you have an older Mag box, click Classic Server under Categories section to view the compatible plans
I have chosen the Silver plan for the demonstration purposes in this guide
Click Continue on the next page
On the following webpage, select Create a New Account if you are registering for the first time
If you are an existing customer, select Existing Customer Login
Fill out the form with your email address and other details
New customers also need to create a Sapphire Secure online account password
This password is ONLY for your online account and NOT for APK login. You will receive the APK or streaming password in your registered email
On the same page as above, scroll down to the Payment Details section and choose your payment method.
Note: Sapphire Secure is currently accepting only BitCoin/LiteCoin cryptocurrency payments
Click the checkbox I have read and agree to the Terms of Service
Click Checkout to proceed
Once the transaction is successful, you will receive an ‘Order Placed’ confirmation on the next page.
Now, you just need to wait for the email from Sapphire Secure IPTV with your APK service login details. The email is usually sent within minutes after the completion of the transaction.
If you haven’t received the email, make sure you check the spam folder of your email. Also, mark the emails from Sapphire Secure as ‘not spam’ to avoid missing any future emails.
This is how you sign up for the Sapphire Secure account.

How to use the Sapphire Secure IPTV on FireStick and other supported devices
Let me break this section down into two parts:
- Part 1: How to access Sapphire Secure app
- Part 2: Use Sapphire Secure app
Note: If you already know how to access the installed apps on FireStick, feel free to skip to Part 2 straightaway
Part 1: Access Sapphire Secure app on FireStick
If you are new to FireStick, this part will tell you how to access your installed apps on FireStick. There are several ways to do it. Let me show you how:
- Go to the home screen of FireStick and navigate to Settings / Applications / Manage Installed Applications / Sapphire Secure (or any other app you wish to open) / Launch Application
OR - Simply hold down the Home button/key on your Amazon FireStick remote for a few seconds. You should see a full-screen popup window. Click Apps
OR - FireStick home screen has the first row titled Recent. You need to highlight the second row underneath it titled Your Apps & Channels
Now, go all the way to the left (or the right) and click See All
Scroll down and select the Sapphire Secure app
If you would rather have this app on your FireStick home screen for quick access, press the menu key on the Amazon Fire TV remote (button with 3 lines). When the pop-menu is displayed on your TV, click Move. You may now place the app anywhere in the first row to make it appear on the home screen
Part 2: Use the Sapphire Secure app on FireStick
Here is the main login screen of the Sapphire IPTV app for FireStick
You need to add a User first before you could use the app
In the Any Name textbox, type any username of your choice
Enter the Username and Password you received in your registered email
Click Add User to continue
You will see the User you created on the login screen along with your app username
Select and click the user to get started
Sapphire Secure will set itself up and download Channels, Movies, etc.
Give it a minute
You will now be redirected to the main screen or the home screen of the Sapphire Secure app
Here is how it looks like
You can get started by clicking the LIVE TV option
Sapphire Secure IPTV for FireStick and other devices does not offer VOD content. Therefore, the VOD sections, Movies & Series, are currently empty
These are the Live TV categories. Each category also displays the number of channels it gives you access to.
To access the channels, click the desired category and start streaming
How to use Sapphire Secure Live EPG
Sapphire Secure service comes with a live EPG or TV Guide to help you find out what’s on TV and the current day’s schedule.
Click the LIVE WITH EPG option on the main screen of the app
It will take a few seconds to download the EPG
Click the category for which you want to view the schedule. You may click a channel on the TV Guide to start streaming.
Use the Sapphire Secure Catch-Up Option
The catch-up option lets you play the recently aired live TV content you missed.
– Click the CATCH UP option on the home screen of the app
– The available episodes and content are available via various categories.
– Apparently, Sapphire Secure does not offer a lot of catch-up options presently
Use the Multi-Screen feature of Sapphire Secure IPTV
Sapphire Secure offers the Multi-Screen or split-screen feature that lets you stream multiple (up to 4) live channels on the same screen. Here is how you can use this feature:
Click Multi-Screen option on the home screen of the app
You should now see 4 rectangular blocks or boxes. Each box is capable of playing individual live TV streams
Select and click the block in which you want to play the channel
On the next screen, choose the category from which you wish to watch the desired channel
Now, click the desired channel you want to play
The channel will now start streaming in the selected box
Select another block or box and repeat the above process
Here are some important things you would want to know about the Multi-Screen feature:
- You can play up to 4 streams
- Your Sapphire Secure subscription plan must allow multiple simultaneous connections for Multi-Screen option to work
- For instance, the Silver plan allows only one simultaneous connection. Therefore, you can play only one stream even if you are using the Multi-Screen feature. The Gold plan allows up to 3 connections and lets you play up to 3 streams on the Multi-Screen window. The Platinum plan allows 5 connections. This means you can play 4 live TV channels together
- Each channel you stream consumes its own set of data. Therefore, 4 channels playing together will use 4 times as much data.
- Also, each channel will use its own share of Internet bandwidth. To play 4 streams together, you must have a really fast connection.
How to reset or view your Sapphire Secure passwords
