How to Refresh EPG on IPTV Smarters Pro

📅 How to Refresh EPG on IPTV Smarters Pro (2025 Guide)

There is nothing more annoying than opening your TV Guide and seeing “No Program Information”.

Without an EPG (Electronic Program Guide), you don’t know what is playing, and you can’t record anything.
Fortunately, fixing it takes about 10 seconds.


Method 1: The Manual Refresh (Fastest)

If your guide is empty, force the app to download the new data.

  1. Open IPTV Smarters Pro.
  2. On the home screen, look at the top right corner.
  3. Click the “Refresh” icon (it looks like two arrows in a circle).
  4. Select “Refresh EPG”.

Wait for the bar to reach 100%. It might take a minute if you have a lot of channels.


Refreshing EPG manually

One click to fix your guide.


Method 2: Clear the EPG Cache

Sometimes the old data gets “stuck”, and the new data can’t overwrite it. You need to clear the blockage.

  1. Go to Settings (the gear icon).
  2. Scroll down to “General Settings”.
  3. Click “Clear EPG”.
  4. Click “Yes” to confirm.

Now, restart the app. It will automatically download a fresh EPG from scratch.


Method 3: Check Your EPG Source

If the refresh finishes instantly but the guide is still empty, your provider’s link might be broken.

  1. Go to Settings > EPG Sources.
  2. Make sure the checkbox next to your source is Ticked.
  3. If it is unticked, tick it and click Refresh.

Checking EPG settings

Ensure your source is active.


Method 4: Is Your Time Correct?

This is a very common mistake. If your device thinks it is 2:00 PM but it is actually 8:00 PM, the EPG will show the
wrong shows (or nothing at all).

Fix it:

  • Go to your Android/Fire Stick Settings.
  • Go to Date & Time.
  • Turn on “Automatic Date & Time”.

Still Not Working?

If you have tried everything and the guide is still blank, the problem is your provider.

EPG data costs money to maintain. Cheap providers often turn it off to save cash.


🚀 Conclusion

Refresh the EPG, clear the cache, and check your clock. If that fails, it’s time to switch providers.
