Firestick/Fire TV: How to Install Aptoide TV APK

Posted on February 3, 2021 by Mitch Bartlett Leave a Comment

Aptoide TV is an alternative to Amazon’s Appstore. It offers apps over 750,000 apps, many of which are not available in the Amazon Appstore. We show you instructions on how to perform a sideload install for Aptoide TV via APK file on the Amazon Firestick, Fire TV, Fire TV Stick Lite, and Fire TV Cube devices with these instructions.

  1. Open the Appstore by going to “Find” > “Appstore“.
    Fire TV Appstore Selection
  2. Download and install the “Downloader” app. You can find it under “All Categories” > “Utilities“.

  3. Go to “Settings” > “My Fire TV” > “Developer options“
  4. Do one of the following depending on the model of Fire TV you are using:
    • Go to “Install unknown apps“, then set the “Downloader” app to “On“.

    • Ensure that “Apps from Unknown Sources” is set to “On“.

One thing to note is that the Aptoide app will not automatically update when a new version is released. You will have to repeat these steps for each new version you wish to install.
