About this app

With this app it becomes an easy task to install (sideload) apps on Amazons FireTv or other android devices right from your phone / tablet.

Features
- Install (sideload) apps on FireTV and other android devices
- Manage files and folders
- Uninstall apps
- Create screenshots or videos
- Supports Amazon FireTv's and other android devices

Quick start guide
1. You need to have [ADB debugging] & [Apps from unknown sources] activated on your FireTV (located in [Settings] - [My Fire TV] - [Developer options]). If the menu entry is not already available please press the select button on the device name in [My Fire TV] - [About] 7 times.

2. Make sure the phone / tablet is in the same Wi-Fi network as the FireTv.

3. Use the scan button on top to discover available devices in your network or set the ip manually in the app settings. The ip address of your FireTv can be found in [Settings] - [My Fire Tv] - [About] - [Network].

4. Try to connect using the plug button

Ratings and reviews

Great app to transfer/side-load apps from your phone. However, the app has some annoyances, such as having your file transfers cancelled if you tap anywhere outside of the dialogue box whilst a transfer is taking place. This seems to be an easy fix, such as having a dedicated button to cancel file transfers, yet the dev refuses to implement this basic feature.

For some reason this latest release keeps constantly losing connection on the Firestick 4K Max. Everything will be connected just fine, and then all of a sudden the connection will drop. I have to restart the Firestick to get the detection & connection working again.

Was working perfectly, but am guessing Amazon have updated firmware on the Firestick in the last week as it now can't find any devices. (Same with Apps2Fire.) Hope this can be fixed in an update to the app? Update: Now finds and connects to devices but can't sideload anything. Just sits at 0% once you choose your APK.

What's new

- Fixed task manage for older firetv
- Mediacenter completely removed, as downloading from unknown sources is not allowed according to Google's network policy

note: android devices that needs pairing through id for WiFi debugging (like current WearOS devices) are not supported at the moment.
