Is Sports TV 8 Legal?
This app does not host any content and is essentially just a search engine. It is, therefore, 100% legal to install and use. However, most links scraped from databases and websites are unlikely to hold the proper licencing for broadcasting live streams. In reality, this means you will be unlawfully streaming unlicensed content. Doing so could get you into legal trouble. Accordingly, you may prefer to use this app with a VPN.

How to Use Sports TV 8
Before you use Sports TV 8, please make sure that you have followed the steps above to install ACE Stream Media.
When you open the app, the default view will be the LIVE option and displays a list of current and upcoming live sports events.
Select an event and a source (there may be multiple to choose from). Then select Ace Player to start watching.
At some point, you will see the message shown in the following image when using the ACE Stream Media player.
The points can be summarised as follows:
- It is free to use ACE Stream Media.
- Use of an external player is only possible if you upgrade to a paid plan.
- ACE Stream may collect and process personal data such as device identifiers, location data and other demographic and interest data to provide a tailored advertising experience.
You must select YES, I AGREE to continue to use ACE Stream Media for free and with tailored ads by collecting your data. However, if you’re using an Android phone, tablet, or Android emulator and prefer to keep using ACE Stream Media without tailored ads and turn off data collection, follow the steps below.
- Open ACE Stream Media and select the Menu button (top-left corner of the screen).
- Select Settings.

Turning this option off will not stop ads from showing but will make ads un-personalised.
Can I Use an External Player?
For a while, yes, you can use an external player. Select your preferred external player after you have chosen a source to start streaming.
However, an external player can only be used for a short time. After around 10 minutes of viewing, your live stream will stop, and you’ll see the following message on screen; “To continue, you need to activate Standard, Premium or Smart plan. Or you can watch content for free in Ace Player”.
In summary, if you pay and upgrade, you can use an external media player. More details regarding upgrading and what each plan offers can be found on the Ace Stream website.
- Standard plan = $1.5 per month or $10 for one year.
- Premium plan = $3 per month or $30 for one year.
It’s FREE to continue using Sports TV 8 with ACE Stream Media.
Wrapping Up
Sports TV 8 is a very good app for streaming live free sports in high quality. Moreover, its simple interface makes it easy to use without any added fuss.
The downsides, however, are:
- If you only speak English, many live streams are in Spanish only.
- Number of ads.
- ACE Stream Media cannot turn off personalised ads on Firestick. If this is an issue, you could try Sports Fire, OceanStreamz, or UK Turks instead.
