Warning! Protect Yourself With IPVanish VPN

When you use IPVanish, your real IP address will be converted into an anonymous new one.
IPVanish VPN will provide you with an anonymous connection to the Internet.
This will prevent your Internet Service Provider, app/addon developers, government agencies, and any 3rd party from logging what you’re accessing online.
The most popular VPN among cord-cutters is IPVanish due to their blazing fast speeds and zero log policy.
It’s important to use a VPN that is fast since we are streaming large HD files. Its also crucial to find one that keeps no logs of what their subscribers access while online.

Live Channels App Description & Features
The Live Channels app is a fabulous tool for those who use multiple services to stream Live TV.
Using the application is a great way to integrate all of your favorites into one location for a seamless streaming experience.
The guide above shows how to integrate Tubi TV and Xumo within Live Channels. Both of these services worked with the Live Channels application, however, this was not the case for every app.
Upon testing, we noticed that certain applications such as STIRR and Haystack did not pull channels into the app and therefore did not work.
One of the best features available is the ability to watch PIP (Picture in Picture) with Live Channels.
To do so, hover over Options when viewing a Channel and select PIP:
You will now see PIP on the home screen and within any apps you open:
Overall, this app is a great tool for Firestick users that stream live tv.
Combining multiple platforms into one location is a great way to get more channel options and content in one location.
For more live streaming options, check out the TROYPOINT Best Streaming Services list and our detailed IPTV Guide.
These both feature tons of live television apps that you can install directly to your streaming device.
