Until I read someone mentioning them on Facebook, but the comment was removed shortly after.

What are these apps, and are they really good and usable on a Fire Stick TV Lite? Is the content they provide comparable to the top online streaming watch online (pirate) websites?

I was going to sell the fire stick and use my PC with an HDMI cable, but I may think twice now.

You can try setting up Stremio

I don’t have fire stick. But previously used kodie in a bunch of devices. Strmio is 100% better.

It doesn’t have as many customisations, but it just works. And has no delays.

Either app get premiumize and for stremio follow a guide to get the right addons.

Best option I have found is cloudstream though you might have to search a bit for the repos.

This is what I use. The hexated repo has some good sources, Sorastream is the one I’ve used the most.

Recently switched to cloudstream from stremio and it seems the selection is much better. The only problem is sometimes it keeps buffering.

I recently tried streamio on firestick, the app worked great in terms of ui and responsiveness but the services it connected to never worked. 5 was on it by default and each allowed me to browse movies and series but when i attempted to watch them it returned an error or buffered forever. I also tried with and without a vpn to see if that affected it. Personally the way that still works best for me is using a browser such as sideloading firefox and then visiting the websites using a vpn like you would on a laptop

Edit: while im here, sideload the newpipe apk. Amazing frontend for youtube

Try the smarttube app for YouTube. It’s way more optimized for TV.

I just wish Smarttube would support Piped instances - that would 100% complete the puzzle for me. Being able to use Piped on my streaming stick.

They are ok, you get links of 720p 1080p, they work better if you have a debrid account to get even more links. Not sure how good they run on the fire stick lite, I use them on the fire stick 4k and they run very good.
