In this FCTV33 APK review, I’ll discuss the app’s features, what it offers, safety and legality, and how to set it up on FireStick. The guide applies to all Fire TV devices, including Fire TV smart TVs, Fire TV Cube, FireStick HD, FireStick 4K, and FireStick 4K Max.
What is FCTV33 APK?
FCTV33 is a relatively new free sports streaming site. You can access it on any web browser or install the APK on any compatible Android device.
It is a fork of the popular RBTV77 sports streaming website, although we can’t confirm if the two are affiliated.
The platform offers live streaming of popular sports, including football, basketball, tennis, motorsports, cricket, combat sports, cycling, and baseball. However, it doesn’t host this content. Instead, it’s an aggregator, providing links to stream these events from external sources.
In addition to live sports, FCTV33 offers real-time scores and standings.
The platform is ad-supported, but the ads are not intrusive. You can simply select ‘Skip Ads’ and proceed directly to the content.
Supported video quality includes SD and HD. You can choose your preferred resolution depending on your internet strength.
The app supports multiple languages, including English, Deutsch, Arabic, Portuguese, Español, French, and Italian.
If you’re looking for a FireStick app to watch free live sports, FCTV33 is a decent choice. It is compatible with the Fire TV remote and easy to navigate.

Is the FCTV33 Safe and Legal?
- Safety: 1 Red Flag
- Legality: Unverifiable
Like any other third-party streaming app, FCTV33 raises concerns about safety and legality. I scanned the APK file on VirusTotal to check for malware and viruses. Only 1 out of 68 security vendors flagged the file as malicious. See the screenshot below:
FireStickTricks.com can’t verify the legality of this app, as it was created by an independent developer. Furthermore, copyright laws vary across countries.

FCTV33 Review
As I mentioned earlier, FCTV33 is a sports streaming platform that doubles as a website and an app. The app user interface is almost similar to that of the website. It’s a lightweight app that loads instantly. This is what the home screen looks like.
The home screen features the live and trending matches. If an event is live, you’ll see a green blinking dot alongside it. On the other hand, if a game is popular, say a highly anticipated boxing or soccer event, it will have a fire symbol.
You’ll also see the various sports categories on the main menu, located in the left panel of the screen. They are represented by the relevant sports equipment, such as a soccer ball for soccer, fighting gloves for boxing, and a baseball bat for baseball.
FCTV33 doesn’t have defined personalization features. The Settings icon, located at the top left, only has one option: Language.
You can choose your preferred language from over 10 languages provided. They include English, Arabic, Spanish, and Italian.
I tested a few live events, and all of them worked. I had to skip a redirective ad, but after canceling it, the playback started almost immediately.
FCTV33 is an aggregator platform that pulls streaming links from the internet. If one link fails to work, try a different one. As you can see in the screenshot below, some events have up to four streaming links.
Video quality varies from one sports event to another. Some events will offer both HD and SD options, while others will only feature an SD option.
I tried both HD and SD links, and the playback was smooth for the most part. However, while the HD streams are picture-rich and clear, they are prone to buffering. The SD streams have less buffering, and the video quality is decent.
Wrapping Up
There goes my honest FCTV33 APK review for FireStick. The new sports streaming app is ideal for users seeking free live sports coverage. It is well-supported on TV devices like Amazon FireStick and is compatible with the TV remote. Give it a try and share your experience with us below in the comments.
