For tech support purposes, the Android version also helps diagnose app crashes as well as sideloading issues. For example, if an app fails to load, I ask the user what Fire Stick they are using and that typically tells me what Android version they have. The 4K Max has far fewer walls in terms of compatibility than the other models.

I keep a tech blog for things like this where I go through and review various devices for the audience. I have a list of published reviews for the different Apple TV models, ranging from the 2014 model to the latest 2021 model. I reviewed the 2014 model, 2016 model, 2018 4K model, 2020 Lite model and the latest 2021 4K Max model. The 2020 4K model was largely a refresh of the 2018 4K model, and therefore, didn’t warrant a full new review. However, the last three generations are really where it’s at for new Apple TV buyers. The first two are no longer worth the money unless you can get them for free.

I've spent way too much time experimenting with my Kindle Paperwhite's browser, and let me tell you, it's a quirky little beast. While it technically supports most websites, the experience ranges from 'barely functional' to 'why am I even trying?' The best successes I've had are with text-heavy sites like Wikipedia, Gutenberg (for public domain books), and some news outlets like BBC or Reuters. Even then, you'll need patience—the browser lacks modern JavaScript support, so anything fancy like interactive elements or complex layouts will either break or load at a glacial pace.
Forums like Reddit (using the old.reddit.com version) or minimalist blogging platforms like Bear Blog work surprisingly well if you just want to read. Avoid image-heavy sites or anything with pop-ups; the Kindle just can't handle them. Pro tip: bookmark mobile-friendly versions of sites you frequent, and always use 'Article Mode' if available. It's not perfect, but it turns the Kindle into a decent distraction-free reading tool for simple web browsing.

So, for a few bucks and an hour or so of your time, you can test out the PSPlay app on a spare Fire Stick and see how it works for you. The app is essentially a donation to the developer that is trying to solve this problem. Go in with very low expectations. If it works fantastically, then that is a huge bonus. However, if it does not work as expected, then at least you will have learned something new. However, if you need something that 100% works and causes no headaches, then look at the various official solutions first. The Fire Stick shouldn’t be your primary means of trying to achieve this.

Free shipping on Fire TV Stick deals is often offered by Amazon. Deals for Fire TV Stick usually include free shipping for Prime members. For non-members, however, you may need to spend a minimum amount. Seasonal sales like Prime Day and Cyber Monday often include free shipping too. Just check the deal details to confirm. It’s also worth waiting for a sale to be shipped instead of paying for the shipping fee yourself.

Updates can be a good thing or a bad thing. Updates to Fire OS happen frequently. Sometimes the update is so drastic that you’ll find the interface has changed dramatically. Usually an update will include some sort of new integration to Live tab that is great. The worst part is that updates require users to be flexible. The device is a living, breathing platform and can change for better or for worse at any time. Your way of accessing your favorite channels could change at any time without you knowing in advance of the change. Often these updates occur without your request.

One thing I wish for is customizable key bindings. I'd like to remap the page-turn keys to other functions, or add a hotkey to look up a word within a sentence as opposed to clicking on individual words. The current reading environment is very static and I realize that Amazon is shooting for a very simple and universal experience but for power users a little customization goes a long way. Perhaps an “advanced settings” page that remains hidden from the average user? I doubt it will ever happen but a guy can dream.

Enabling display mirroring on the Fire Cube is a matter of going to Settings > Display & Sounds and toggling the associated option to the On position. Then, on your Apple device, you can use Screen Mirroring from the Control Center to select the Fire Cube from a list of availablegetDisplayMirroring-enabled devices. Video clips from apps like Facebook can then be cast to your TV where they can be viewed by everyone. Sound is even sent to the TV speakers, a much better location than in your phone's tiny speaker(s). In short, it's a really cool way to share photos – passing around a physical album of them just isn't this cool.

This thread has made me think about my media consumption in a way I try not to. It’s easy to add more channels to the ones you already have, without ever stopping to think about it. And there’s a psychological effect where having more options to consume leads to an expectation that you need to consume more, better, smart stuff. But really, most nights, I just end up rewatching The Office on Peacock.

For someone with skills, possibly modding the remote control to use instead of buying separate universal remote controls for each HDMI input is a possiblity. However, it would require replacing the Bluetooth module with a more advanced multi-connection module and programming new firmware for the remote control. While possible, such a mod would likely cost more than the alternative remotes, take a lot of time to complete, and risk bricking the remote control. The mod is a hardware change and not something that can be resolved with a software update.
Until someone figures out a work around for this limitation of Fire Sticks, it is just something we live with. The community has largely moved on from hopes that this would be fixed and instead are looking for ways to work around it with their current TVs and other devices.
