CatMouse is another great new app for on-demand content including Movies and TV Shows. The app looks and functions so much like Terrarium TV that we think it is safe to assume it is a clone.

CatMouse is working impressively at the moment. It has loads of content for you to browse and binge-watch. It is also scraping high-quality streams from some top sources on the web. You will find dozens of Full-HD streams for most videos.

We are confident that CatMouse will become mainstream very soon. Therefore, we had no doubt it will be part of the best FireStick apps for movies and TV shows.

Terrarium TV shutdown resulted in the spawning of many clones; CyberFlix TV is one of them. And, since CyberFlix TV is a clone, it looks exactly like Terrarium TV. The good news is that it also functions a lot like the original.

CyberFlix TV packs a solid collection of movies and TV shows. This scraper-based app also fetches the streams from several sources that were prominently seen in Terrarium TV. You can also sign in with your Real-Debrid account to access premium, Full HD streams.

6. Titanium TV (Free)

Many users call Titanium TV an exact replica of Terrarium TV. After using the app for a while, I am also inclined to such judgment. The app has the same look and feels like that of Terrarium TV. It looks like the same codes have been used to write both these FireStick apps.

The good thing is that Titanium TV also works much the same as TTV. It features a big catalog of movies and TV shows and lets you stream them in high quality. The app fetches some good links, including several Full HD streams. You can also sign in to your Real-Debrid account and increase the number of Full HD links.

Titanium TV is lightweight and easy to install app. It works on FireStick, Fire TV Stick Lite, FireStick 4K, 2nd/3rd Gen, and Fire TV Cube.

10. CucoTV (Free)

The name ZiniTevi may ring a bell for you if you are a big enthusiast of streaming video content on FireStick. The once-famous app is now down, but CucoTV, its clone, is a suitable alternative. CucoTV allows you to stream the latest movies and TV shows. It is a free app, so you can watch all of its content without paying a subscription fee.

You can watch your favorite movies and shows on CucoTV in HD quality. The app also allows downloads, so you can save content for offline viewing. Video streams do take some time to load on CucoTV.

11. CineHub (Free)

CineHub is an excellent app for streaming movies and TV shows. This app is suitable for lovers of classics, popular titles, and the latest releases alike.

Sadly, iPlayer is restricted to the UK. But worry not, I have covered the trick to unblock and watch BBC in any country including the USA.

13. Kodi (Free)

Kodi is an open-source application for various platforms and can be downloaded on your Amazon FireStick, Fire TV, without any additional cost. Apart from everything else which contributes to its burgeoning reputation, what catches the eye is its simple yet elegant user interface.

With a plethora of options for personal entertainment, you can choose what you like – right from music from a preorganized party playlist to viewing various TV shows. And why limit to only TV shows. You can also view full-fledged HD movies on your Amazon FireStick. Via, Kodi you'll have access to thousands of movies of almost all genres, in a single click.

Kodi has a unique feature that lets you share your photos on any other screen or digital album from your personal slideshow itself. In case you want to record your favorite TV shows, you'll have to download a PVR add-on for the app. Kodi users are advised to use a VPN due to heavy online surveillance all over the world.

14. Syncler (Free)

Syncler is a relatively new streaming app that has quickly gained popularity. It's a video-on-demand app used by tons of people because of its massive collection of movies, TV shows, documentaries, PPV replays, web series, and anime.

For example, you can link your Real-Debrid account to enjoy HD links. You can also integrate your Trakt account to import your watch history and lists.

How to Install Syncler on FireStick

15. Stremio (Free + Paid)

If you are looking for an uncomplicated way to stream your favorite movies and shows (and more), I say you give Stremio a try. In fact, ever since I started using Stremio, it has become one of my regular streaming tools. Stremio is an online media service, like Kodi, and it is also supported on a wide range of devices. But there are some clear differences.

For starters, Stremio has a much simpler and user-friendly interface. You could get started almost instantly. Additionally, Stremio installs its addons online. Meaning, the addon installation data is not stored locally. This means that when you install an addon on one device, it can be accessed from all your Stremio devices (provided you are signed in with the same account). It also means that the storage space on low-storage devices doesn't get crammed no matter how many addons you install.

Stremio supports both official and community (unofficial, third-party) addons. You can install any addon with a single click. All the supported addons are also lined up for you when you visit the addons section. You don't have to look up them manually.

How to Install Stremio on FireStick, Fire TV

16. Plex (Free + Paid)

Plex is definitely one of the best media management systems I have come across. This service converts your computer into a media hub by transforming into a Plex server and lets you access the local and online media from client apps for a wide range of devices including Amazon FireStick, Fire TV, and FireStick Lite. I find it a very handy media tool for FireStick, which has some serious storage limitations. I could download any movies and shows on my computer and play them wirelessly on my FireStick. I don't even have to be on the same Wi-Fi network to do that. Besides the local media on my computer, I can download server plugins (called Plex Channels) and gain access to unlimited online media on FireStick, Fire TV, and other client apps. Plex is mostly free and therefore I recommend it as one of the best apps for FireStick.

How to Install Plex on FireStick

17. Netflix (Paid)

Netflix has aptly turned out to be a synonym for entertainment today. It is undoubtedly, one of the most widely used platforms for TV shows and Movies. And although Netflix is a paid service, it is still one of the best FireStick apps.

Arguably the best thing about Netflix is that you always get fresh content and can never get bored of it. For the lovers of "classics", the media channel also houses lots of old TV shows, for their loyal and die-hard fans.

Once you subscribe to Netflix on your Amazon FireStick, Fire TV you can use the same account on more than one device. If you're not sure whether you should get it, just try Netflix for a month for free and cancel it anytime you want (which is a seriously unlikely probability). With a Netflix VPN, you can also stream other country's version of Netflix without any legal issues.

How to Install Netflix on FireStick

18. HBO Max (Paid)

HBO Max is one of the newer on-demand streaming services. However, within a short span of time, it has already acquired millions of subscribers.

With HBO Max, you can watch all your favorite HBO Originals. But, that's not it. This service also gets tons of syndicated programs and movies from popular third-party distributors. For instance, it features the ever-popular sitcoms The Big Bang Theory and Friends.

You can also stream content from several other media services including DC, Cartoon Network, Looney Tunes, and a lot more.

Go ahead and give it a try.

19. TeaTV (Free)

TeaTV came about at the same time as Terrarium TV. And, even though the latter continued to hog most of the limelight, TeaTV maintained its ground. The app, however, has gained a great deal of traction ever since the shutdown of Terrarium TV.

With a solid line-up of movies and shows and a straightforward interface, TeaTV is one of the preferred choices of many users. This lightweight app is easy to install and use.

The app used to get buggy and unstable. However, the developers got it back on its feet again with regular updates and fixes. TeaTV is presently one of the best FireStick apps for streamers.

This will improve the quality of streaming links that you receive and will keep buffering down to a minimum. You can also integrate your Trakt account to sync your viewing history and add media.

21. Weyd (Free)

Weyd is one of few media streaming apps that were built from scratch. It is not a clone or fork of any popular streaming app. It is a new app that lets users watch movies and TV shows for free, offering a massive collection of video content to select from.

Old and newly released entertainment blockbusters are all available for enjoyment on Weyd. It scrapes streaming links with the help of plugins and link providers.

Weyd offers an elegant user interface. It features a design that is eye-pleasing and newbie-friendly. The absence of ads means that the home screen and other backgrounds are clutter-free. It also means that you don't have to wait for an ad to load when you click on a movie or TV show.

Shudder TV is an official app and is available on the Amazon Appstore. It is not a free app, so you have to sign up and subscribe to use this streaming service.

24. Crackle (Free)

Crackle is another free video streaming service app, from Sony Entertainment. You can easily find the best award-winning movies and TV shows in this, without any hassles.

If you are a real admirer of great works in entertainment then you should definitely register yourself on Crackle to view amazing TV shows, movies, and web series on your Amazon Fire Stick device. However, you need to create an account on Crackle to enjoy the freedom to access its content.

If you have children accessing such devices, there is always a risk of them getting exposed to some adult content, which has to be avoided at all costs. Thankfully, Crackle has also taken care of this by adding a Parental Control feature in the app, to filter the content according to age. This only adds up to the app's popularity on the Fire Stick.

While OneBox HD continues to provide quality streaming links (and that's why it is on this list of best apps for FireStick), it has some shortcomings we couldn't overlook. It is updated with the new content, but the main screen does not feature any of it. You need to search for them manually. The app has also not been updated for quite some time. You may still try OneBox HD, but there are other better options you will find right on this list.

34. Tubi (Free)

Tubi is a free movie streaming app for FireStick. It operates similarly to Netflix by giving you access to a large library of on-demand movies, series, TV shows, and documentaries. Besides being a free app, Tubi also allows you to watch all of its content without even creating an account on the app.

Tubi updates its database with new content every week. Its range of content includes movies, series, sitcoms, animes, and kids' shows. As you would expect, the fact that Tubi is free for all to use comes with a downside. Tubi is ridden with ads, which can get a little annoying. You'll have to sit through a short ad each time you watch something.

Tubi is only available in the US. However, this isn't a problem, even for people living elsewhere. Thanks to virtual private networks (VPNs), users from all around the world can access location-specific content from almost anywhere in the world.

Owned by Sony Pictures Network India, SonyLIV is an Indian general entertainment streaming platform. On SonyLIV, you can watch TV shows, movies, and sports for free! But, the free plan doesn't give you access to the premium content.

Rokkr serves the same purpose as many best FireStick apps on this list: allowing you to stream movies and TV series. Rokkr is not officially available to download in the Amazon Appstore and therefore requires being sideloaded from a third-party site. But once you get the app, it opens a world of diverse entertainment channels, including channels based in the US.

This app is free to use and does not offer any subscriptions. The app is essentially a browser, giving you access to streams of your favorite movies and shows. To get direct access to the best content, you will need to install a few additional resources.

Rokkr might be great, but it has one downside to it, which is that many of its movies and series are only available in standard definition. This means that you'll have to settle for watching your favorite TV shows and movies in lower quality than you may be used to.

How to Install Rokkr on FireStick

40. IMDb TV (Free)

IMDb is owned by Amazon. This media house allows Amazon FireStick users to access IMDb TV for free. IMDb TV gives you access to officially licensed movies and series from many of the top production companies in the US. Some of these big media names are Metro-Goldwyn-Mayer (MGM), Sony, and Warner Bros Studio. Some of the popular titles on IMDb TV are The Desperate Housewives , Lost , and Ally McBeal .

IMDb TV is only available in the US. However, thanks to virtual private networks (VPNs), you don't have to worry about geographical limitations. With a VPN, you can access geographically restricted content from almost anywhere in the world. This means that even from a country in the Middle East, you could watch IMDb TV on your Amazon FireStick. VPNs allow you to access internet servers in another country, meaning that you can get access to content that is localized to that particular country.

41. VRV (Free + Paid)

VRV is an interesting application. It does not give you access to every possible genre of movies and series like other FireStick apps do. Instead, it gives you access to specific types of content. Its dominant niches are animes, cartoons, tech shows, and science fiction. While it has content from other genres, the aforementioned ones constitute the bulk of the content available on VRV.

VRV also has a personal watchlist feature. In just the same way that music streaming platforms allow you to create personalized playlists of your favorite songs, VRV lets you make playlists for HD video content. You can curate personalized watchlists on the app according to your taste.

VRV's major selling point is its enormous repository of anime, making it the perfect FireStick app for anime lovers. VRV makes some gaming content available to you as well. And all of this is available in HD, with the only downside being the presence of ads. If you do not want the ads to appear, you can pay for premium access.

42. Typhoon TV (No longer available)

Update: Typhoon TV has been shut down

Typhoon TV is a streaming application for free movies and TV shows. It is the clone of the once very popular Terrarium TV.

You can browse Typhoon TV for hundreds of movies and shows, including the latest ones. The app is fetching lots of high-quality streams from various reliable sources. It also works great with the premium link generator Real Debrid.

Typhoon TV has a remote-friendly interface and offers smooth navigation on FireStick. It lets you quickly find the content you want to watch by several categories and filters.

If you are looking for quality on-demand streaming, give Typhoon TV a try.

How to Install Typhoon TV

43. Morphix TV

Update: If Morphix TV doesn't work, please try other FireStick apps on this list

Morphix TV is a clone of the popular app Morph TV. Even though the app is still in the development phase, I decided to include it on this list of best apps for FireStick. That's because it offers a wide range of movie titles and allows one-click playback. It has a section for TV-Shows. However, it is still offline as I write this.

Morphix TV is a small-sized app that works smoothly on FireStick as well as Android TV devices. It has a remote-friendly app allowing easy navigation on the big screen. Give it a try.

44. Morph TV (Free)

Update: Morph TV may not pull any streaming links at this time. Please explore other FireStick apps on this list.

Even though the very popular Morpheus TV is all but defunct, its clone Morph TV is rapidly gaining a good reputation among the streamers. You may still install Morpheus TV and use the existing content library, it no longer gets any new updates. On the other hand, Morph TV has the support of an active team of developers. The software upgrades are regular and the media collection is constantly refurnished with new movies and TV shows.

Morph TV has an unsophisticated interface allowing you to get started without having to go through any learning curve. The app scrapes quality streams. However, I miss Real-Debrid support. I hope it is added soon in one of the future software updates.

45. UnlockMyTV (Free)

Update: UnlockMyTv may not work at this moment

UnlockMyTV is a great option to watch your favorite movies and shows currently. The media library is strong and regularly updated with new content. You will find almost all the new movies and shows.

What I really like about this app is its ability to scrape superior-quality streaming links from a variety of sources. I was impressed to see several 1080p streams. And, there are barely any dead links. Almost everything works here.

UnlockMyTV is gaining popularity as a Cinema HD clone. Both are strikingly similar in form and function. Both are performing superbly too.

Best FireStick Apps for Sports / Live TV

46. Sling TV (Paid)

Sling TV was the first live TV launched on the internet and should be among your very first choices if you're fond of live TV channels. However, this service is only available in the USA so you need to use a VPN to access it elsewhere.

Most of the live video streaming services charge more than $40 for the same features that you can get just for $20 per month with Sling TV. The only concern is that you need a proper internet connection in order to enjoy uninterrupted live streaming services.

The only restriction is that if you opt for the cheapest pack, you won't be able to stream on more than one screen at a time. In case you're logged in with more than one device, it will automatically ask for the single device you want to view the channels with, upon starting.

How to Install Sling TV on FireStick

47. OLA TV (Free)

If you are a cord-cutter and like to watch TV channels on FireStick, OLA TV would probably be one of your first choices.

The app lines up almost all the channel categories on its home screen. You may find multiple categories for a country. That's because Ola TV streams channels from multiple servers. Just pick a category and choose the channel you want to watch.

49. Tea Sports Live (Free)

There are lots of apps available for the FireStick that you can watch live sports on. Most of those apps allow you to watch a variety of sports on them. Tea Sport Live is different.

50. VUit (Free)

If you are in the United States, VUit can be your home for local live TV on FireStick. While there are tons of IPTV apps that let users stream national and international TV channels, there are very few that let them access local TV. These include fuboTV and Hulu, but the difference between VUit and these apps is that VUit is entirely free of charge.

The app currently offers hundreds of local TV channels. As a result, you can follow local news, events, weather reports, documentaries, podcasts, and sports without having to pay a subscription fee. In addition, because of its partnership with a number of local TV stations, you can also watch exclusive and original content on VUit.

On FireStick, you can manually change the video resolution depending on your preference. The media provided on VUit is available in up to HD quality.

VUit does not make it mandatory for users to create an account to stream content on the service. It is an official app available for download in the Amazon Appstore.

Stremium requires that you register before you can use the app on your FireStick. After installing and launching the app, you will be given a code. You must submit this code on Stremium's official website. Once you link the app, you can add your TV provider to access the live TV

You can get started for as low as $14.95 per month. Yes, that's the price you pay for more than 8000 live TV channels and tons of movies and shows.

47. Exodus Live TV (Paid)

Exodus is a paid streaming app on FireStick. It gives you access to almost 900 live TV channels from the US, the UK, and many other regions. The best part? Exodus Live TV offers all of these channels in full HD resolution.

Exodus Live TV gives you access to a diverse range of content, like sports, movies, series, music videos, religious channels, documentaries, and kids' shows. Exodus Live TV makes this possible by having a dedicated team of stream miners who are constantly in search of the best streamable content on the internet.

Exodus Live TV's operations are perfectly summed up by its description of itself: It is the work of "TV fanatics that search the internet daily for Live TV Streams and share these streams with each other."

Exodus Live TV stands out from the competition because it enables you to stream HD (720p and 1080p) content without buffering. Any person with a decent internet connection can enjoy Exodus Live TV in high definition.

But all of this comes at a small price. Users who want access to the app's services must pay a subscription fee. There are three options: a monthly plan, a yearly plan, and a lifetime plan. These cost $5.99, $49.99, and $99.99, respectively.

48. TVTap (Free)

TV Tap is a live TV app with a solid lineup of satellite channels from all around the world including the USA, UK, Europe, Asia, the Middle East, and more. TV Tap has a dedicated APK for FireStick, customized for remote-control and bigger screen of a TV. The user interface is simple and rather easy to use. However, it could have been better by making the channel icons on the main screen a bit smaller.

You can watch all sorts of channels in various categories including Entertainment, Movies, News, Music, Sports, Food, Kids, and documentaries. The app also lets you filter channels by country/region. I wish more channels streamed in HD. Yet, TV Tap is a decent Live TV app for FireStick. Give it a try!

How to Install TVTap APK on FireStick

49. Players Klub IPTV (Paid)

The Players Klub IPTV is another quality IPTV service. It gives you access to more than 2000 TV channels. While most channels are from the USA, you can also watch plenty of TV channels from countries like Australia, the UK, Canada, and more.

This IPTV service comes at an affordable price of $8 per month. Given the fact that it has a huge collection of channels and all streams at high-quality, I would say it is a pretty amazing deal.

While Players Klub IPTV is primarily a live TV app, it also has a decent on-demand section with dozens of movies and TV shows for your streaming delight. Unlike a lot of free FireStick apps, Players Klub IPTV offers a more reliable and higher quality video playback.

The Players Klub IPTV has an Android app you can install on FireStick. The app is completely remote-compatibility, allowing easy handling and navigation. The service also offers a Kodi addon, which you can again use on FireStick through Kodi. However, the Android app seemingly works better on FireStick than the addon. Of course, the addon makes Players Klub IPTV a multiplatform service.

How to Install The Players Klub IPTV

50. HD Streamz (Free)

HD Streamz is yet another free Live TV app that finds its way to our collection of top apps for FireStick.

56. Fox Sports (Paid)

Fox Sports has been around for quite a long time. A quarter of a decade, in fact. With its FireStick app, sports lovers can tune in to Fox Sports broadcasts on their smart TVs. The hugely popular sports hub allows live streaming of sports events including games from the NFL, MLB, NASCAR, golf, tennis, NCAA football, NCAA basketball, WWE, boxing, and soccer.

Fans can also keep up to date on their favorite sports teams and personalities with the regular news and updates that the app provides.

Fox Sports is an official app available in the Amazon Appstore. It requires users to sign up for a Fox Sports profile and connect a TV provider before they can use the app to watch sports.

Unfortunately, there's a catch. There is no local channel coverage or sports channels for sports. Also, Philo is not the best option if you're big on news. Still, there is a healthy range of channels and categories covered by the app.

Philo is a strong option for users who like to record movies, shows, and other content to watch later on. As I mentioned. it comes with a DVR feature that permits unlimited recording to the cloud, so you can record as many movies and shows as you like without having to fear that you'll run out of storage space.

Initially, Local Now focused entirely on local news and weather reports through its partnership with several news channels. However, it has now expanded to offer other content that goes beyond news.

Like the name implies, you're not going to find a lot of global news on this platform. The app targets localized content, with a Local Now channel for every zip code in the US.

With its expansion to include movies, shows, and other content, you can now stream from platforms like Lionsgate, Maverick, Sonar, and Gravitas.

As you can imagine, Locast is not the ideal option if you want an IPTV app that lets you watch channels from anywhere. It doesn't have on-demand content either, instead focusing entirely on live TV.

The Locast app for FireStick has a simple and efficient user interface. There is a TV Guide that lists all the local channels in your area, as well as program names and details for each channel. You can stream in high quality, and you will find the streams reliable. Locast depends on donations to operate, so expect a short ad about making a donation before you can watch a channel.

Once you download this application and run it on your Fire TV, you'll notice that Mobdro keeps on searching free video streaming around the globe and sends it directly to your device, making it a very useful tool in the said regard.

You can enjoy the free streaming service for as long as you want, but if you wish to remove unnecessary bulky ads then you have to purchase a premium account.

One thing is for sure that, unlike CBS and NBC, Sky News doesn't run the same old news again and again. There'll always be some or the other type of fresh content for you. But Sky News is not free, and you need to purchase a premium version to avail all these features.

Installation – Sky News is available on the Amazon App Store. Simply go to the search icon, search it, and then follow the onscreen instructions to install it.

67. BBC News (Paid)

BBC News is one of the top apps for FireStick. In the world of News and Information, BBC, an acronym for British Broadcasting Corporation is a brand. It provides genuine news without any fabrication. Arguably the primary reason why most of us blindly trust BBC is due to its huge network of trustworthy journalists and their reach to every nook and corner of the world. And now this is available on your Amazon Fire TV as well.

Through BBC News, you can not only view live streaming videos but can even browse news articles and read them on your device. BBC News covers almost all sections of News including entertainment, business, health, and lifestyle. It could be a real time saver if you wish to read the fresh content always and don't have to go searching for it every time.

Also, there are no commercials or ads to interrupt your viewing experiences. Videos are stacked up in autoplay mode, so you need to switch to other news videos manually.

Installation – BBC News is available on the Amazon App Store. Simply go to the search icon, search it, and then follow the onscreen instructions to install it.

Best Fire TV Stick Apps for Music

68. YouTube (Free)

YouTube is one of the primary entertainment platforms on the internet and most of us are quite addicted to it. Since we are accustomed to using YouTube on our smartphones and PC, just imagine how would it look on a bigger HD screen?

Well, YouTube is one of the must-have FireStick apps for your Amazon device and can directly be downloaded from the Amazon App Store itself. Playing your favorite music on the channel or exploring the new releases, all of this is possible on the Amazon Fire TV as well. Additionally, you can also create a music playlist comprising of your favorite songs and play them whenever you want.

Just like the web version, the YouTube app for the Fire Stick is also free. If you want to get rid of intermittent commercials, you can buy the YouTube Premium Subscription.

69. Twitch (Free)

Like YouTube, Twitch is also a free platform for listening to music or viewing content. But twitch has a certain turn to it. Apart from viewing content, you can also contribute content. Unique, isn't it?

With the Twitch app, you can not only view any content but can also stream your own content. Also, unlike other video streaming applications available for Fire Stick, here you can find live streaming of video games as well (now that's something totally cool). If you like a certain video or streaming, you can support and help your favorite streamers to get rewards and recognition by increasing the views, subscribing, and cheering with Bits.

You can even earn money as a streamer on Twitch by signing up for the Affiliate program. If you are a gamer and love to make some quick bucks, you just need to sign-up to become a verified Twitch partner and earn by broadcasting yourself playing.

To install Twitch on FireStick, simply go to the "Search" icon and type "Twitch." When the app name pops up in the search results, open and install it.

70. Spotify (Free)

If you are an all-time music lover, then Spotify should be a household name for you. Once you download Spotify on your Amazon Firestick, you get instant access to millions of songs, as soon as you log in to your account.

You can also use a single Spotify account to play music on different devices by using the same Wi-Fi network. To select music from a playlist, you can simply use your mobile phone and then synchronize it with your Amazon Fire TV to set up the mood or to get in the groove.

Unlike various online music streaming FireStick apps, Spotify would not irritate you with unwanted advertisements between the music playlist. You also get an option to download your favorite music and listen to it afterward.

To install Spotify, simply go to the "Search" icon and type "Spotify." When the app name pops up in the search results, open and install it.

Utility Apps for FireStick

71. Downloader (Free)

For any platform, you must have utility applications pre-installed to do any task. Utility Applications form the soul of a device and Downloader is one such utility application, you must have on your Amazon Firestick.

Whether you want to sideload an application or save your favorite music video, you will always need a downloader application to accomplish the task. The other implication is that without a downloader, you would not get enough download speed and might end up wasting lots of time. Due to the poor internet connection at times, your downloading might also get stalled and result in corrupted files.

To prevent this, the downloader app for Fire Stick lets you immediately pause the process and resume it when you are on a good network. This not only helps you to systemize the files you want to download but also prevents them from corruption.

72. Mouse Toggle (Free)

FireStick and Fire TV devices run on the modified Android operating system. They also use the APK as the executable files, just like the Android mobiles. This makes a lot of people assume that all the app that works on Android mobiles would also work on FireStick. But, that's not always the case.

Mobiles employ a touch interface, while FireStick has a remote-controlled interface. While there are many Android apps that are both touch and remote-friendly, many are not. Even if you install apps on FireStick that are not remote-friendly, you may not be able to interact with them. As a result, you miss out on some great Android apps.

Thankfully, there is a workaround called Mouse Toggle that lets you use just about any Android app on FireStick. Mouse Toggle app spawns a mouse pointer on your FireStick screen. You can maneuver the mouse pointer with the navigation keys on the remote. However, the mouse pointer can reach those sections of certain apps, which your FireStick remote cannot. This makes Mouse Toggle one of the must-have FireStick apps for your device.

Mouse toggle works on All Fire TV devices including, FireStick Lite, FireStick 4K, and Fire TV Cube.

How to Install Mouse Toggle on FireStick

73. Browser (Free)

A browser is undoubtedly one of the best FireStick apps. There are various applications that are very useful but cannot be downloaded from the Play store. In such a case, you'll need to visit their official website if you wish to download it on your device. To access these websites, you'll need a browser.

The browser serves as a multifunctional application. Some of the best FireStick apps like YouTube and Spotify have online platforms that can be accessed through a browser and a swift internet connection, without downloading or installing them.

The browser saves your time and space by eliminating the requirement of installing third-party applications that you need to sideload on the Amazon Fire TV. Along with applications, you can also view your other favorite websites in HD quality on a bigger and better screen.

To install your favorite browser on Fire Stick, go to the "Search" icon and type the name of your browser such as "Silk." When the app name appears in search results, open and install it.

74. Video & TV Cast (Free)

Video & TV Cast has to work in sync with an Android or iOS device, which is the major drawback of this app. You cannot use the app on your FireStick without first downloading the app on a smart Android or iOS device. Besides this little inconvenience, it is a great app overall and provides a lot of utility for movie and TV lovers.

Video & TV Cast comes with a built-in browser that is designed to let you search the internet for movie and TV show streams to watch on their FireStick, Android, or iOS device. Video & TV Cast also offers versatility. Not only can you use the app to search for and watch video streams online, but it also doubles as a media player. You can use Video & TV Cast to watch videos from your Android or iOS device's gallery and camera roll. Video & TV Cast is one of the free and best FireStick Apps.

75. Allcast (Free)

Allcast is a utility app that lets you screencast. Installing the app on your mobile device and your FireStick allows you to cast the screen of your Android or iOS phone or tablet to your TV screen. Allcast makes this process swifter and more convenient.

76. VLC Media Player (Free)

VLC Media Player is a utility app for Android, iOS, Windows, macOS, and now, FireStick OS. VLC is a very popular app and has been around for a long time, being one of the most reliable video (and audio) players out there.

With VLC, you can watch videos in almost every video file format imaginable. Should you ever encounter a movie or series in an obscure video file format, try to open it with VLC Media Player. Chances are that VLC supports that format and you will be able to view the content in the file.

VLC is so versatile that it also has streaming capabilities. You can use it to stream video and audio content on the internet or even on a local network. What's more? You can also use VLC to meet your torrenting needs. All you need to do is install a plug-in and you can use VLC to download torrents.

77. Zoom (Free + Paid)

Many people have heard about Zoom, a cloud-based meetings and video communications app that became one of the most-downloaded apps in the world at the peak of the pandemic. What you may not know is that this video chatting service is available for use on FireStick and other Fire TV devices.

Zoom lets users carry out a variety of video conferencing tasks online. Zoom users can meet, work, and socialize together when meeting each other physically is not possible. They can conduct online classes, training sessions, webinars, and meetings, and they can stay in contact with friends and family through HD video and audio calls.

You can use Zoom on your FireStick in a couple of ways. If your Fire TV has a front camera, you can hold video calls with the help of a microphone. An alternative and more practical method is screen mirroring, or casting, from your smartphone or your computer to your TV.

Zoom is officially available as Zoom Cloud Meetings in the Amazon Appstore. It has both free and paid plans. The paid plan unlocks a bunch of extra product features. It also removes the limits that come with using the app for free, such as hosting up to only 100 participants on a Zoom call.

How to Install & Use Zoom on FireStick

78. Wolf Launcher (Free)

For a lot of FireStick users, the native Fire TV does not provide the most eye-catching and elegant design. While the Fire OS is based on a custom version of the Android OS, it does not come close to Android in terms of interface customization. As a result, FireStick users are left with a home screen and background that are bland and boring. Unless they use a custom launcher.

There are several custom launchers available for the FireStick, and Wolf Launcher is one of the best. It allows users to customize virtually all aspects of their home screen. They can organize their apps, creating a home screen that is both visually pleasing and efficient to use. Apps can be resized, grouped into folders, and even concealed for privacy purposes.

In addition, Wolf Launcher removes the sponsored and suggested Amazon apps and banners that come with the default OS. This helps you to declutter the home screen and save data. Wolf Launcher is a third-party app, so it is not available in the official Amazon Appstore.

How to Install Wolf Launcher on FireStick

79. Aurora Store (Free)

If you are a regular FireStick user, then you may have noticed that unlike Android TV, it lacks the official Google Play Store. Aurora Store is an open-source utility app that provides an alternative to the Google Play Store.

The app doesn't just resemble the official Play Store app—it allows FireStick and other Fire TV users to download and install Android apps that are present in the Google Play Store. Additionally, Aurora Store mimics other Play Store features, such as the ability to manage installed apps from the store. For example, you can update existing apps with Aurora Store.

The Aurora Store comes in handy because the Amazon Appstore does not have nearly as large of an app collection as the Google Play Store. That means you are restricted in the apps that you can install on your device without sideloading app APKs. Aurora Store fills that gap, providing a massive library of apps to choose from.

Aurora Store has a well-designed and intuitive interface. You don't need a Google Play account to use the app on your FireStick.

80. Task Killer (Free)

Sometimes, your FireStick slows down to a sluggish pace that can be quite frustrating. Task Killer is a lightweight utility app that helps to optimize the speed and performance of your device. The app provides a summary of apps that are running in the background and causing the device to be drained of its system resources.

When your FireStick's RAM is taken up by lots of apps and tasks running in the background, it will slow down and buffer more. Task Killer frees up this space by killing background apps and tasks, thereby providing an instant speed boost to your device. In fact, you can kill apps and free up valuable RAM for your FireStick in a single click.

Task Killer also helps clean the cache of your device and installed apps, as well as clear app data. When you launch the app, it will show you the active apps running in the background and the amount of available memory you currently have. It has an "Ignore" feature that lets you add some apps to a whitelist, preventing them from being auto-killed.

Task Killer is a free third-party app.

81. FileLinked (Free)

FileLinked is no longer available

The popular file-sharing app DroidAdmin has been rebranded, repackaged, and is now available as FileLinked. Whether you want to share photos, videos, music, or APKs, FileLinked will do it all for you. This also makes FileLinked an incredibly useful side-loading tool.

While Downloader and ES File Explorer continue to be the most popular side-loading apps on FireStick, FileLinked is making quick progress too. The app makes sideloading a hassle-free process. All you need to do is obtain the file code from the uploader and enter it in FileLinked. The app will do the rest. There is absolutely no need to enter the long URLs anymore.

FileLinked is all the handier for FireStick users since this device doesn't allow you to download the APK files directly from the browsers. I have noticed that more and more developers these days are offering FileLinked codes for mobile and FireStick apps. Therefore, it only makes sense to have this app on FireStick.

How to Install FileLinked on FireStick

FAQs

What is the best movie app for FireStick?

Many apps on our list of best apps for FireStick offer movie streaming. However, if I were to pick from them, I would say either go for Cinema APK or Typhoon TV. Both these FireStick apps have a big library of movies and they are fetching many quality links. Both support Real Debrid as well, which makes sure you have the premium streaming links.

What is the best Live TV App for FireStick?

On the Live TV front, Mobdro APK, Ola TV, and HD Streamz are doing a fine job. These best FireStick apps feature tons of live TV channels for movies, shows, sports, kids, and more. These are free FireStick apps. If you are looking for a paid (yet pocket-friendly) service, you may try Sportz TV. This app gives you access to more than 8000 channels for less than $15 a month.

What is the best app for a Jailbroken FireStick?

It depends upon the type of content you want to watch. If you like to stream movies and shows, you would like Cinema HD and Typhoon TV. If it is the live TV you like, we recommend Mobdro, Ola TV, and HD Streamz. However, the one app that should be part of your jailbroken FireStick is ExpressVPN. This app will secure your online streaming by hiding your online identity and making sure your activities cannot be traced back to you.

How do I download movies on FireStick?

FireStick Apps like Cinema HD let you download movies and shows onto your device. However, I do not recommend it because FireStick has a low storage capacity. Movies will occupy a lot of space on your storage and cause all sorts of problems including buffering, overheating, and more.

To Conclude…

It won't be wrong to say that Amazon Firestick has an enormously high potential in the future. It won't be long before we see people abandoning Cable or Dish and opting for internet streaming. When it comes to enjoying flexibility on what you want to watch, it makes every sense.

If you are planning to buy an Amazon Firestick or already have one, the applications listed above can be really helpful in many regards. Eventually, you will get a taste of different kinds of entertainment, and that too in a much-enhanced way.

While some applications are free of cost, some others will set you back by a few dollars, if you'd like to enjoy premium features. The above listicle is a mix of both and will make your device a complete entertainment source. Still, you should always read the user reviews carefully and use your own wit before investing money in Amazon FireStick apps.
