In this section, we will cover everything you need to know about installing and watching OAN on your Amazon FireStick.
Quick Overview of Your Amazon FireStick
Your Amazon FireStick is a nifty USB device that plugs directly into your television (or monitor) as well as a power source. To use FireStick’s features, you need access to an internet connection.
Amazon’s FireStick has a lot of great applications for streaming platforms, games, web browsers, and more. You can explore the Amazon FireStick app store to discover all of the great applications at your fingertips.
Installing OAN
OAN is an official application in the Amazon FireStick app store, although it should be noted that OAN is only available for download in the United States. Follow this easy step-by-step guide to successfully install the OAN app on your Amazon FireStick.
Step 1:
Before you can do anything else, you will need to connect your Amazon FireStick to your TV according to the device instructions. Turn on your TV and your FireStick as the first step to download your OAN app.
Step 2:
On the FireStick home screen, use your remote control (the one that came with your FireStick) to navigate to the search bar, which is marked by either a magnifying glass icon or the word “Search.”
Step 3:
Using the on-screen keyboard, type “One America News Network” into the search bar. Keep your eye on the screen between typing letters. FireStick has a smart search feature that may automatically fill in the rest of the application name, which can save you some time.
Step 4:
Once the OAN app shows up on the screen, use your remote control to select it and then click on it. On the app screen for OAN you will see a button that says “Get” or “Download.” Click this button to begin downloading the OAN app.
Step 5:
After the OAN app has finished downloading, you can find it on your Amazon FireStick home screen (you will need to exit the Amazon app store). Locate the app on your home screen and click on it. This will bring you to a login screen where, if you have an existing account, you can enter your account credentials and log into the OAN app.
If you do not have an existing OAN account, we suggest that you create an account on a web browser rather than on the FireStick interface. Web browsers are more efficient and easier to navigate, and can be more secure when inputting private details like your payment information and billing address.
Once you’ve created this account, you can then return to the login screen on your FireStick and enter your new account details.
Step 6:
Congratulations! You have successfully downloaded and logged into your OAN app on your Amazon FireStick. You can now explore the app’s features, adjust the settings to your preferences, and begin enjoying the news on the app.
