The Amazon Fire TV and Fire TV Stick are some of the most popular Kodi compatible devices on the market. They run Kodi very nicely, and are highly recommended for use with Kodi. Kodi for Android can be easily sideloaded to the Amazon Fire TV or Fire TV stick without much effort. If you have an Amazon Fire TV or Fire TV Stick, Kodi is definitely a must-have app!

Kodi must be sideloaded to the Amazon Fire TV or Fire TV Stick since they both do not offer Google Play Store support. This means that you’ll need to manually update the Kodi app in the future, since Amazon does not officially endorse the use of Kodi on the Amazon Fire TV nor Fire TV Stick. At the same time, the Amazon Fire TV is one of the best Android TV devices around.
