Attention, FireStick Users!
Governments and ISPs constantly monitor your online activity, and accessing copyrighted content on your Fire TV Stick could lead to serious trouble. Currently, your IP is visible to everyone. I strongly recommend getting the best FireStick VPN to mask your IP address and securely stream your favorites.
I personally use ExpressVPN, the fastest and most secure VPN available. Not only is it easy to install on any device, it comes with a risk-free 30-day money-back guarantee. Plus, if you're not 100% satisfied, you can always get a refund. ExpressVPN is currently also offering a whopping 3 extra months free on their annual plan!

How to Use Fawesome TV on FireStick
The fawesome TV app has a straightforward interface. It is quite easy to use.
Let us explore this app together:
Go to the home screen of your FireStick or Fire TV. In the second row or section titled Your Apps & Channels, you will find your installed apps (up to 20).
The recently installed apps are placed at the end. So, navigate this row to the right with your remote. If you have less than 20 apps, you will find Fawesome TV here. Click the app and open it.
If you have more than 20 apps, you must expand the Your Apps & Channels section. You can do that by clicking See All on the far left or right (see the image below).
When you are here, you may navigate to the bottom of the list, where you will find Fawesome TV. Click the app to access it.
Any installed app can be moved to the home screen, giving you instant access to the apps. To move Fawesome TV, select the app and press the Menu key on the FireStick remote (the menu key is the 3-line button).

Now, move the Fawesome TV icon and drop it in the top row (even the second from the top row will do). You will now see the app on your FireStick’s home screen.
Let’s open the app now. This is the main screen of the Fawesome TV FireStick app.
The left menu has several icons (we will explore them in a bit). When you open the app, the home option is selected by default.
Video content is available in several rows of categories. Recently Watched is the first row. Scroll down to explore other categories, including Top Picks, Browse By Genre, New TV Arrivals, Classic TV, Weekly Watchlist, and Foreign Language TV.
Press the left navigation button (in the navigation ring) on your Fire TV remote to expand the left menu. This is how it looks now (check the image below).

While Fawesome TV is a great way to stream some quality movies and shows, it does lack on some fronts. For example, it does not let you mark videos as favorites. The only playlist you have is the Recently Watched category. So, if you want to watch a video later, you must play it at least once to add it to your Recently Watched category.
While Fawesome TV is officially available for FireStick/Fire TV via Amazon Store, it is not supported on other devices, not even Google Play Store. The service also does not have a Kodi add-on.
