How to Install & Use UnLinked APK on FireStick (2024)

In this article, I will show you how to install and use the UnLinked app on FireStick. The instructions provided in this article will essentially work for any Amazon Fire TV device, including Fire TV Cube, New FireStick 4K, New FireStick 4K Max, FireStick Lite, and FireStick 4K, as well as Android TV boxes, smartphones, and tablets. 

What Is UnLinked?

UnLinked is a third-party app store and an alternative to FileLinked. This service lets you download hundreds of third-party apps on FireStick and Android devices.

The biggest advantage of Unlinked is that you don’t need to type in long URLs to download files. You can enter 6-7-digit numeric Unlinked codes to access app libraries from where you can download apps in a few clicks.

Unlinked also lets you create personal app stores and host apps. However, that’s optional and unnecessary if you only want to download apps from the app stores created by others. We will learn more about Unlinked in the following text.

Is UnLinked Safe and Legal?

These questions arise because UnLinked is a third-party app, meaning Amazon has a reason not to include UnLinked in its official app store. 

Using VirusTotal, I ran a security check on the URL that downloads UnLinked. According to the scan, the file is safe. There are no viruses or malicious threats in the UnLinked APK.

The bad news is that FireStickTricks.com does not have the resources to verify the legality of third-party applications or services, including UnLinked.

UnLinked may be safe, but it facilitates installing countless third-party apps. Since those apps stream free content from various sources that are often unknown and possibly illegal, using UnLinked may indirectly result in you breaking the law. Your ISP (internet service provider) and government can see what you stream on your FireStick.

FireStickTricks.com does not endorse, advocate, or encourage illegal streaming or piracy. However, your privacy is important. Therefore, I recommend using a FireStick VPN to stay safe. ExpressVPN is the best VPN for FireStick.

You’ll need to sideload the UnLinked app on FireStick because it is unavailable in the official Amazon App Store. If you are new to the FireStick ecosystem, the term “sideload” may sound too technical.

To make the installation process easier to follow, I will split it into two parts. 

Part 1: Preparing Your FireStick to Download UnLinked

To sideload any app (including UnLinked) on Fire TV devices quickly, we need Downloader. Currently available officially on the Amazon App Store, the Downloader app lets you install third-party APKs and other files easily. To get it, here’s what you need to do: 

1. Select the Find option on your FireStick home screen.

2. Scroll down and click Search.

3. Now, start typing in Downloader. You don’t need to type the full name. Click on Downloader when it appears in the suggestions underneath the keyboard.

4. Click Downloader in the APPS AND GAMES section.

5. Click Download or Get. The app installation will begin now.

6. On the FireStick home screen, select Settings (the gear icon). 

7. Locate and select My Fire TV.

8. Scroll down and click Developer Options.

9. Select Install unknown apps.

Note: If your screen shows Apps from Unknown Sources, select it to toggle it ON. You may ignore step 10 below.

10. Click on Downloader to turn it ON.

Part 2: Installing UnLinked on FireStick

Since we now have the Downloader app, let’s finish the UnLinked installation process.

1. Select the URL input box as highlighted in the screenshot.

2. Enter https://unlinked.link in the box and click Go. 

Note: FireStickTricks.com does not distribute or host this APK. 

3. The link will take you to UnLinked’s official page. Use the directional button on your FireStick remote to scroll down the page and select Download Android App.

4. Once the APK is downloaded, you will get a prompt to install it. Click INSTALL.

5. After installation, click DONE. 

6. The UnLinked app is now installed, so you no longer need the APK. Click the Delete option. 

7. Click Delete again. 

This is how you install UnLinked on FireStick.

Your FireStick / Fire TV is now all ready to stream your favorite content. However, before you start, I would like to warn you that everything you stream online is visible to your ISP and Government. This means, streaming free movies, TV shows, Sports might get you into legal trouble. 

Thankfully, there is a foolproof way to keep all your streaming activities hidden from your ISP and the Government. All you need is a good VPN for Fire Stick. A VPN will mask your original IP which is and will help you bypass Online Surveillance, ISP throttling, and content geo-restrictions.

I personally use and recommend ExpressVPN, which is the fastest and most secure VPN. It is compatible with all kinds of streaming apps and is very easy to install on Fire TV / Stick.

We do not encourage the violation of copyright laws. But, what if you end up streaming content from an illegitimate source unintentionally? It is not always easy to tell the difference between a legit and illegal source.

So, before you start streaming on your Fire Stick / Fire TV, let’s see how to use ExpressVPN to keep your streaming activities hidden from prying eyes.

Step 1: Subscribe to ExpressVPN HERE. It comes with a 30-day money-back guarantee. Meaning, you can use it free for the first 30-days and if you are not satisfied with the performance (which is highly unlikely), you can ask for a full refund.

Step 2: Power ON your Fire TV Stick and go to Find followed by Search option.

Step 3: Now type “Expressvpn” (without quotes) in the search bar and select ExpressVPN when it shows up in the search results.

Step 4: Click Download to install the ExpressVPN app on Fire TV / Stick.

Step 5: Open the app and enter the login credentials that you created while buying the ExpressVPN subscription. Click Sign in.

Step 6: Click the Power icon to connect to a VPN server. That’s all. Your connection is now secure with the fastest and best VPN for FireStick.

1. Go to UnLinked’s official website. Click Register on the top right.

5. Fill in the Library’s Name, Description, and Welcome message.
