Tip: GSE can import an EPG for the TV guide. If the guide is empty, open EPG Sources in the menu and refresh it, or add the EPG link from your welcome email.

Using an M3U Link Instead

If you prefer playlists, open Remote Playlists in the menu, tap plus, choose Add M3U URL and paste your CatchON TV M3U link. Xtream Codes is still the better option because it organises movies and series automatically.

GSE Questions

Does GSE cost money?

GSE has a free version with ads and a paid version that removes them. Any purchase goes to the app developer, not to CatchON TV.

Login failed

Check the server URL includes http:// and the port, and that the username and password have no extra spaces. More help is in the troubleshooting guide.
