    I just set up my fire stick last night with my old clunker of a Panasonic plasma tv, and was very impressed with the speed compared to the old setup I had previously. Other than trying to get the cover off the remote which took me about 30 minutes I'm very happy I purchased it. I look forward to using it with a more updated 4k tv.

    Several useful tips here. I can also add that you can restart the entire fire stick from the settings menu and "My fire TV". This closes all apps, clears the memory, and might clear certain problems. It does not remove any passwords or personal settings, so it's safe to use and only takes a few seconds.

    What an informative video! Am thinking of buying a Firestick, and have been doing a bit of research. Your video just pointed out 10 useful things I would probably not have found myself. I want to mirror my Android phone on a TV, and I was looking at using an AirPlay app with an existing connected AppleTV. It’s possible with a number of apps, but most reviews sum up by saying ‘go get a Firestick.
    You video explains mirroring, and 9 other useful tricks.
    Now, go look at Part 2 ...

    Any thoughts - we have Disney+ on Fire stick. Hulu works fine. Netflix, RUclips and all other apps have no issues.
    Disney+ stops to refresh constantly. Just to get through the opening credits it can stop 10-15 times. However once we watched a movie and it stopped maybe 2-3 times during the entire movie. It plays fine on our phones with no stopping. If we can’t figure it out soon we will just cancel Disney+.

      If you haven't already tried this, be sure to. Unplug the power cord from your router for a couple minutes. Then plug back in. Do this at least once every 8 - 10 days. This clears the cache inside the router. The more WiFi is used, the more often this simple step should be done. Your connection speed and number of internet users in your area can affect the stopping & overall speed as well. Just like it can effect it when using a computer. Good luck!

    Hello: Thanks for the tips & I used your tutorial to Jail Break my Fire TV Stick (newbie to all this). Question: Tip #4 Mirroring the cell phone to TV. I have an Moto E Play android phone & found an App: Cast To TV-XCast & downloaded it, How do you know which one to download. I followed your steps in video: held Home button, went to Mirroring, clicked it, then I'm suppose to open the App on my phone (made sure both using same wifi). I saw my name for the Fire Stick & clicked on it, but nothing & I get now error message or something. I tried re-starting my phone, went back out on TV & fire stick, but nothing. What do you suggest? I tried to use the App you mentioned but its not for my phone & I uninstalled it. Thanks again.

    0:40 the fire tv app of which you speak: I went there in the google play store and there are 700 reviews, and most of them in the near past before 01/20/2020 are saying "It may work well for a day a week a month, BUT after that IF IT EVER WORKED GOOD, I AMAZON, YOU GOTTA FIX THIS. IT SUCKS IN A MAJOR WAY. AMAZON, YOU SHOULD BE ALL OVER THE COMMENTS AND COMPLAINTS PEOPLE ARE MAKING ABOUT YOUR "FIRETV" APP. I'm going to trust those reviews and not install.
