Intro: What You'll Learn
The video introduces the possibility of installing apps from outside the Amazon App Store on Fire Stick or Fire TV devices using secret codes. It promises to share a top secret code for a fully loaded Fire Stick, allowing access to a variety of free apps for movies, TV channels, sports, utilities, and more.
What Are Secret Codes?
Secret codes enable access to free apps for movies, TV, sports, and utilities on Fire Stick. These codes work with the Downloader app, available in the Amazon App Store. The video will guide viewers through downloading and using Downloader with these secret codes.
How to Get the Downloader App
To get the Downloader app, navigate to the "Find" option on the Fire Stick home screen and select "Search". Type "Downloader" using the on-screen keyboard, select the Downloader app from the search results, and click the "Get" or "Download" button to install it. Once installed, open the app and allow permissions if prompted to avoid errors when using secret codes.
Enabling Developer Options (Crucial Step!)
To enable developer options, go to the settings icon (gear) on the home screen, select "My Fire TV," then "About." Highlight the Fire Stick's name and press the select button seven times until a message appears stating, "No need, you are already a developer." Go back to "My Fire TV" where you will now see "Developer options". Select "Install unknown apps" and turn the permission for the Downloader app from "off" to "on." This allows Downloader to install apps from outside the Amazon App Store.
The Top-Secret Code Revealed!
The top secret code is 28907. This code provides a direct shortcut to a downloads page that features hundreds of additional apps for the Fire Stick, offering free entertainment.
How to Use Codes in Downloader
To use the secret code, tap on the text box in the Downloader app and enter the code 28907 using the on-screen keyboard, then click "Go." Wait for the download page to fully load. Once loaded, press the options button on the remote twice to open the Downloader app in full-screen mode for easier navigation.
Navigating My Downloads Page
The downloads page contains hundreds of apps organized into categories such as movie and TV show apps, live TV, sports, and news. Scroll down to view the list of categories, making it easier to find specific types of apps.
Adding to Favourites for Easy Access
To easily access the downloads page in the future, add it to favorites. Press the options button on the remote, select "Add current page to favorites," and then click "Save." This eliminates the need to remember the shortcut code. Open the Downloader app, navigate to the left, select "Favorites," and then tap the link to open the downloads page.
Example: Installing a New Web Browser (TV Bro)
To install a new app, such as the TV Bro web browser, navigate to the "Browser" category on the downloads page. Select TV Bro, which takes you to its download page with more information. Scroll down and click the blue download button to download the installation file. After the download completes, you will be prompted to install the app.
Important: Delete Installation File
After installing the app, click "Done" instead of opening it immediately. This allows you to delete the installation file, which is no longer needed and takes up space on the Fire Stick. Confirm the deletion by selecting "Delete" and then "Delete" again.
Accessing Your New App
After deleting the installation file, go to the app screen to open the newly installed app. The video encourages viewers to explore and discover useful apps using the provided secret code. Individual download pages may also contain links to more detailed tutorials about each app.
