How to get Apple TV on the Fire Stick
Getting to the big apple from your Fire Stick is as easy as asking. Press the Alexa or microphone button on your Fire TV remote and say, “Find the Apple TV app.” After agreeing to download the app, you can say the same thing to open it quickly.
You can also search for the app from the home screen. Choose to install the app and wait for the download to complete. See our guide on adding apps on your Fire TV Stick for more detailed instructions.
If you’re away from your Fire TV Stick, you can download the app from the Amazon website so that it’s ready for when you get back. Sign in to your Amazon account and select your device from the menu titled “Deliver to.” The download will begin remotely, and you should receive a notification once it’s finished.
Aside from the Fire TV Stick, you can also watch Apple TV on any Fire tablets you may own. You’ll find the app on-screen the next time you fire up your Fire TV or tablet.
How to cancel Apple TV on the Fire Stick
To remove Apple TV from your Fire Stick, navigate the Settings from the home page and select Applications—> Manage Installed Applications. Scroll down to find Apple TV and click Uninstall.
If you never plan to use the app again, make sure you first cancel your subscription within the app to avoid being charged the monthly fee. To do so, open Settings–> Users & Accounts–> Subscriptions. Select Apple TV from the subscriptions you want to manage and select Cancel Subscription.
You could also opt for an Apple One subscription if you regularly use other Apple services such as Apple Music, iCloud storage, and Apple Arcade. The bundle will save you money compared to paying for all these services individually.
