Why Use Amazon Firestick for IPTV?

Firestick is one of the best streaming devices available because it's affordable, easy to use, and supports many popular IPTV applications. Once your IPTV app is installed, you can enjoy live TV channels, movies, TV shows, sports, and international entertainment from one device.


Install the Downloader App

The Downloader app allows you to install IPTV applications that are not available through the Amazon App Store. Before installing any IPTV app, connect your Firestick to Wi-Fi and complete the initial Amazon setup.

From the Firestick home screen, search for Downloader, install it, and open the application.

Step 1

Go to the Firestick home screen and select Find > Search.

Search for Downloader, select the application, and install it.


Enable Developer Options

To install IPTV APK files, Firestick must allow apps from outside the Amazon App Store. This only needs to be completed once.

Step 2

Open Settings from the Firestick home screen.

Step 3

Select My Fire TV.

Step 4

Choose Developer Options.

If you don't see Developer Options, open My Fire TV > About and press the Select button on your Firestick remote seven times until Developer Options become available.

Step 5

Select Install Unknown Apps.

Some Firestick versions display Apps from Unknown Sources instead. If that's what you see, simply turn it ON.

Step 6

Locate Downloader and turn permission ON.

Your Firestick is now ready to install IPTV applications and other APK files.


Download Your IPTV App

Launch Downloader for the first time and allow the requested permissions.

When the Quick Start Guide appears, select OK.

Your IPTV provider will supply either a Downloader code or a download link for the IPTV application. Enter the code or URL into Downloader and install the app.
