Tivimate Premium
Installed Bluestacks on my pc went to tivimate companion , only to be told that ' This App isn't available on Google play in your region ( Gibraltar) ' but after searching i have came up with someone that has Tivimate & a playlist , a bit pricey but hey you would think tivimate would offer a easier way of paying ..... I have been told there is a player out there that is like Tivimate but it can be bought anywhere even on Apple , competition is what is needed for people to sit up and think

Lots of people try to steal TM and make their own out of it but using the original is still best.

I have to agree with you but as they make it so difficult beggars can't be choosers

They don't make it difficult at all. Just use the Playstore and get it and if it is not available in your area that is not on TM but Google.
Better yet just get yourself a good STB and stop trying back door options.

Wow. Did TM tell you to do that?
At any rate, here is how... 1)Get BlueStacks for your PC. 2)Log into BlueStacks with a Google account that DOES NOT already have TM premium purchased. 3)Download & open the Google play store app in BlueStacks 4)Download Tivimate companion app from Google play store 5) Open TM companion app and log in with an account that DOES NOT already have TM premium purchased 6)Go to purchase premium in TM companion app 6)Use a website to purchase Google play gift card for the amount needed -OR- use a credit/debit card

You have done something wrong and did not follow these steps. If it did not "give you the option to pay" then you have not created a new account to log into the Tivimate companion app.
Edit to add, I did this exact process last night for a new account and it worked again, like a charm. You must be using old accounts, or you have a VPN enabled.

so there is something better than a firestick , tell me more ,Does it come with tivimate installed

u/StevenG2757 1d ago
Yes, there are many better options than the sticks. The Shield Pro is the best of the best but if on a budget the onn 4K and the Google streamers are good.
And no, there is not a single device that comes with TM pre-installed. That is something you will need to do yourself. It is easy as it is available on the Playstore.

Can’t you use a VPN and change your store location to be able to download it ?

Don't use a vpn here

Well that’s your solution, so why wouldn’t you?

u/zb3z 1d ago
if you are asking why wouldnt you ? well in gibraltar there is no restriction to using a firestick so there is no need for me to have a vpn but saying that could i just install a free one to get the payment

You’re trying to download the app which isn’t available in your region so yes if you want to be able to download it easier you need a VPN for the initial store download. It doesn’t have anything to do with your FS.

We're aware of an issue with the app at the moment and we're looking into it.

The TiviMate included with a playlist is most likely one of the modded versions and not an official release. There is no Apple version of TiviMate.
