In this guide, you will learn how to install Movie HD on FireStick. The screenshots used in this tutorial have been taken on a FireStick 4K device. However, the steps work on Amazon FireStick 2nd/3rd Gen, New FireStick 4K, New FireStick 4K Max, Fire TV Cube as well as FireStick Lite.
Movie HD is an on-demand app that streams movies and shows. It has a big content library, which is also updated regularly with new videos.
Since Movie HD is a lightweight app, it takes a small amount of space and remains easy on the resources. However, this also means it is not exactly the most feature-loaded app.
Movie HD misses some basics, such as Real Debrid and Trakt. Of course, if you are not interested in these features, Movie HD is a good choice for a basic streaming experience.
On the other hand, if you are looking for a more feature-rich app for movies and shows, you may explore our list of Best Amazon FireStick/Fire TV Apps.
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!

Part 1: Enable or Allow Apps from Unknown Sources
Why do we need this? Because Movie HD will be sideloaded on your FireStick from a third-party source. Your device will allow sideloading only if you have enabled Apps from Unknown Sources.

2. Within the Settings, go ahead and select My Fire TV.

Note: Skip this if it is already ON
6. This prompt is now displayed on your screen. Simply click Turn On to continue.
Now that you have configured your FireStick for sideloading, we can install Movie HD now.

2. Select the Search option or the magnifying glass icon in the upper-left corner in the menu bar
3. Search and install the app called Downloader
4. When you run the Downloader app the first time, you encounter some prompts. Dismiss all of them until you see the main screen

11. Click Delete again
You have successfully installed Movie HD on FireStick. This app required AMPlayer to play the videos. We will install this player in the next section.
Part 3: Install AMPlayer for Movie HD
Most streaming apps come with built-in video players. That is not the case with Movie HD though. It requires an external video player called AMPlayer.
We will install AMPlayer from Aptoide TV. Aptoide TV is an alternate, third-party store. I am providing the quick steps to install Aptoide TV. You can read more about it in our guide on How to install Aptoide on FireStick.

Movie HD installation is now complete.
