What is Amazon Fire Stick?
The Amazon Fire Stick is a tiny device that plugs straight into the back of TV sets. All you need to do to enjoy Amazon’s streaming services and to browse the web on your TV is to plug the Fire Stick into your TV’s HDMI port. With this stick in place, you can catch your favourite Netflix shows, stream movies from Amazon Prime, watch YouTube content, and stream music via Spotify: it’s an incredible piece of compact home entertainment technology.
How to use the Fire Stick
It takes just a few easy steps to get your Amazon Fire Stick up and running, so here is a short and simple breakdown of how to get your Fire Stick up and running.
Plug the Micro USB into the side of the TV Fire Stick. Put the other end into the wall adapter and plug it in. (You may need to use the HDMI extender.)
Use your TV remote to select the required HDMI source. A welcome screen should appear.
Put the three AAA batteries into the back of your Amazon Firestick Voice Remote Controller.
Wait for the remote to pair and then click the Play/Pause button to select your language.
The device will scan for a Wi-Fi connection. Select yours and put in your password (The Fire Stick will then install and check for updates, this may take a few minutes).
Activate your device by linking it to your Amazon account (or create a new one).
Log in, save your Wi-Fi password to your Amazon account and enable parental controls if needed.
Finish setting up the Amazon remote so you can use it to control your TV as well.
