How to Install & Watch VUit on FireStick

This guide shows how to install VUit on FireStick. VUit is a free legal app that offers 200+ channels on your FireStick. The steps in this article work on all Amazon Fire TV products, including FireStick 4K and 4K Max, FireStick Lite, and Fire TV Cube. First, I’ll briefly summarize what you can expect from the app.

What Is VUit?

VUit is a FireStick app that provides about 200 local and national channels across many domains. On VUit, you can stream documentaries, as well as watch the news, sports, and business programs.

Only a few local news apps on the Amazon App Store provide HD resolution and many channels. Most of these channels require a premium membership to access their content. However, setting aside $50 monthly for premium apps is not cost-effective for an average-income household.

This is where the free VUit App comes into play. The app relies on ads, so you won’t have to pay to watch your live shows.

VUit is easy to use. You won’t need to spend time searching for the most recent news stories because its user-friendly interface allows you to access on-demand news clips in a section dedicated to this. It also offers simple navigation from one channel to the next.

VUit suggests programs and channels to watch based on previous viewing habits. Plus, its Nearby Channel Suggestions feature gets you to relevant channels based on location.

The app now includes video replay, so if you missed something important during its live broadcast, you can watch it again. Alternatively, the recently watched feature can help you find things you may want to see again.

How to Stream on FireStick with a VPN

Your internet provider and many websites/apps can see your IP address and some details about your connection. Using a VPN encrypts your traffic and masks your IP address, which helps protect your online privacy.

I recommend ExpressVPN. It’s a reputable VPN with strong encryption and fast connections, and it’s straightforward to install on Fire TV/FireStick and other devices.

Next, I’ll show you how to set up and use ExpressVPN on your Fire TV/Stick. 

Step 1: Subscribe to ExpressVPN HERE. It comes with a 30-day money-back guarantee. Meaning, you can use it for 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 the 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 when you purchased 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.

How to Use VUit on FireStick?

The VUit app is entirely plug-and-play, making it simple to use. You can access your favorite content in minutes.

If you intend to use VUit frequently, add it to the home screen as a shortcut. Press and hold the home button on the FireStick remote until a menu appears on your FireStick screen. Choose the Apps button on the menu. Please scroll to the VUit tile, but don’t select it. Press the options button (three horizontal lines) on your remote, then select Move to Front. Now, VUit will appear on your FireStick’s home screen.

FAQ’s 

Is VUit free to install and use?

It is free, and you can access plenty of channels without paying a single penny. Ads rather than user subscriptions support it.

Is VUit legal to use?

Yes, VUit is legal. Apps available in the Amazon App Store are official, vetted apps you can stream without concern. That’s not the case for third-party apps, so if you go that route, you may prefer to use ExpressVPN to make your streaming private.

What channels can you watch on it?

VUit provides about 200 channels covering various topics, including new stores, business, sports, documentaries, and live shows. All of the channels are based in the US.

What countries can I watch VUit from?

VUit should be officially available in the Amazon App Store in every region of the world. That said, the content you can watch is entirely US-based.
