Hello folks!

Does anybody can recommend some sort of IPTV FOSS app for Android?

Any recommendation is appreciated.

Currently, I see 3 IPTV apps on fdroid. IPTV Player, FastoTVLite, and Digilog TV. I remember trying the last 2 a long time ago.

There is also M3U, which is the best one I could find when I tried some out earlier in the year.

Your experience may vary, but I'd wager if you put that player on a PlutoTV IPTV stream in the US an ad break would kill your stream at least 10% of the time, making it fairly unwatchable

Yeah, Pluto’s ad breaks are awful in regards to reliability. It seems like every time an ad cut happens, the stream needs to be restarted. Which then triggers another ad, which has a high likelihood of breaking the stream again.

I don’t use Pluto streams when I can avoid it.

I didn't find these apps on F-Droid repo

You need to add the IzzyOnDroid repo to see these
