Enter the login
Open the player and pick the Xtream Codes option. Fill in the username, the password and the server address from your WhatsApp message, and the channel list comes up within a few seconds.
Android has the widest choice of players, though a Samsung or LG TV runs one with no box at all, and the Firestick guide is the cheap way to bring an older television along. Have the channel list open while you decide.
