How To Install The Player Apps:
How to pre-setup your streaming device to watch our service.
A new Fire TV device must first be configured to allow users to install third-party apps. There are a few settings you will need to enable prior to using installer apps like “Downloader” to install our media player apps. To install 3rd party apps via Downloader, you’ll need to “jailbreak” or allow your FireStick to install apps from unknown third-party, sources. After you have installed downloader, then skip down to “What media player app is best to stream TV and Movies”
Follow these easy steps to turn on ADB debugging and apps from unkown sources first:
1. Launch your FireStick home screen and navigate to the settings icon ()
2. Scroll down to the My Fire TV banner and click on it.
3. Click on About. Now click the big circle or “enter button” on the first menu item ( 7 times) until you see a message pop up saying ” No need, your now a developer”.
4. Now click the back arrow button 1 time and scroll down to Developer Options and click on it.
5. Select ADB debugging and click to turn it ON and select Install/Allow apps from unknow sources and click to turn it ON.
Once these settings have been enabled, you can then install 3rd party apps on your FireStick. Your FireStick is now “Jailbroke” or prepared to install other apps using Downloader.
The short video below shows you how to enable your FireTV device to turn on ADB debugging.
