In this tutorial, I will show you how to install, set up, and use Flix IPTV on FireStick Lite, FireStick 4K Max, FireStick 4K, New FireStick 4K, New FireStick 4K Max, and Fire TV Cube. These instructions also work for Android smartphones, Android TV boxes, and computers.
Amazon FireStick brings thousands of TV shows and movies to our fingertips. Most users stick with Netflix, Disney+, Prime Video, YouTube, and Peacock. However, other IPTV apps and players allow you to enjoy live TV shows and movies from around the globe. Flix IPTV is an interesting player that deserves a place on your FireStick home screen.
Before we guide you through installing Flix IPTV on FireStick, let’s define it so you know what to expect.
What Is Flix IPTV?
There are two types of IPTV apps: IPTV players and IPTV services/providers. Not every IPTV service comes with a dedicated app to stream content. Instead, it relies on IPTV player apps that let users play media.
Flix IPTV is an IPTV player that lets you stream content from IPTV apps such as Thunder TV and PrimeStreams. The service doesn’t have any content of its own. You must create a playlist using a Mac address and a URL from the app.
As for pricing, Flix IPTV comes with a free one-week trial. After that, you have to pay a one-time fee of €7.49 (about $9) for each TV or device you use the app on.
Attention FireStick Users
Governments and ISPs across the world monitor their users' online activities. If you use third-party streaming apps on your Fire TV Stick, you should always use a good FireStick VPN and hide your identity so your movie-viewing experience doesn’t take a bad turn. Currently, your IP is visible to everyone.
I use ExpressVPN, the fastest and most secure VPN in the industry. It is very easy to install on any device, including Amazon Fire TV Stick. Also, it comes with a 30-day money-back guarantee. If you don't like their service, you can always ask for a refund. ExpressVPN also has a special deal where you can get 4 months free and save 61% on the 2-year plan.

Is Flix IPTV Legal?
Here’s where it gets tricky. On the surface, Flix IPTV is legal to download and use. But if you dig deeper, you may discover problems with certain content in certain regions. Let me elaborate.
Some live TV channels, TV series, and movies you can consume on Flix IPTV may be licensed by another media company within your country. This means the company would have exclusive rights to stream the content in the region. If you try to stream the copyrighted content in the country, you may be in legal jeopardy.
The thing is, your government and ISP providers can see what you watch on your FireStick. Unintentionally streaming illegal content can leave you vulnerable.
We do not encourage the violation of copyright laws. However, what if you accidentally stream content from an illegitimate source? For a typical user, it’s not easy to tell the difference between a legal and an illegal source.
Thankfully, there is a way to avoid this situation on your FireStick. Using our recommended service, ExpressVPN, you can mask your online identity.
