Steps to Install FuboTV on a Fire Stick
What You Will Need
There are three main things that you will need to put FuboTV onto an Amazon Fire Stick:
- A Fire Stick: If you’re here, you should already have one of these, but if not, you can buy them online or anywhere that you would buy electronic devices.
- A FuboTV account: If you have yet to set up a FuboTV account, we will be going in-depth on how to create one. Don’t worry, the process is super easy.
- A television: This is what you’ll have your Amazon Fire Stick set up to and what you will be watching FuboTV on. Though, with FuboTV, you aren’t limited to the TV. You can watch shows on the app anywhere, anytime.
Download FuboTV from the Amazon App Store
If you have an Amazon Fire Stick, then you should be very familiar with using the Amazon app store. Here is where you download all the different kinds of apps, including streaming services, that you could want on your Fire Stick. In the United States, FuboTV is included in the Amazon app stores list of available streaming services to use.
If you are relying on a VPN or are in Canada or Spain, there will be an extra step in the beginning. First, you’ll want to make sure that your Fire Stick is set up to download apps from unknown sources. This will allow you to download the necessary app to get FuboTV onto your Fire Stick.
You’ll want to download the downloader app that will allow you to put in a specific link that will allow you to download FuboTV.
With this method, the screen will prompt you to ask if this app can have access to files. While this sounds pretty scary, FuboTV is completely safe to download with this method.
Once you have your connection set up or if you are in the United States, you are ready to take the following steps:
- The first thing you should do is open up the Amazon App store. This is where the start of this downloading process will take place.
- Go to the search and type in FuboTV. If you don’t know what this app looks like, the design is an orange background with “FuboTV” written in the middle. You can’t miss it. If you don’t see it and are using a VPN, make sure to check which connection you are on.
- Click on this app and click either “get” or “download.” Now, you have to wait until the downloading is complete. This shouldn’t take more than a few minutes. If you have bad Wi-Fi, you may have to wait longer for the download to be complete.
- Once FuboTV is installed, click on it again and click “open.”
Putting FuboTV onto Your Fire Stick
Now that you have it downloaded through Amazon, you have to actually put the app onto the Fire Stick. This is essentially just accessing the app through your Fire Stick.
- Go to the home of your Fire Stick and click on “apps.”
- You’ll be taken to your list of apps. You’ll want to find FuboTV amongst your apps list and select it.
- This will launch the app.
