  • The primary use of an Amazon Firestick is to install apps. It has always been easy to install apps from the app store, until Amazon made this sneaky change which could cause users to be outraged & out of pocket. Here's what to look out for so you don't get caught out by it.

      Amazon would need to be careful. A few years ago they were fined a few million pounds for getting customers to opt for Amazon Prime free postage for a trial period, not knowing that they were automatically signing up to a monthly subscription . This appears to be another variant of that same deceptive idea.

    I'll continue to use the two Firesticks that I have. I'll NEVER subscribe or buy any content from Amazon. I'll continue to use sideloaded apps until the day the devices stop working - then I'll be going elsewhere for my streaming devices.
