Learn about Spectrum APP on Firestick

Before installing the Spectrum APP on your Firestick, it’s important to have a basic understanding of the Spectrum APP. Additionally, here are some points to consider that will help you avoid potential issues during the process:

  • Spectrum TV is different from traditional television; it does not provide TV services via satellite but through the internet. Currently, it offers access to a variety of popular channel types, including traditional television channels, news, sports, entertainment, and more. Moreover, you can watch movies and other TV shows.
  • While the Spectrum APP is free to download, it is tied to Spectrum’s internet services and specific cable TV plans. To watch channels on Spectrum TV, you need login credentials. This means you must have a Spectrum subscription to watch Spectrum TV, whether on a TV or a mobile device.
  • The Spectrum APP still functions when you’re away from your home Spectrum internet network. However, the number of channels you can access will decrease. The Spectrum APP offers additional features, such as the ability to arrange your favorite channels according to your preferences, cloud DVR services, parental controls, and even using it as a remote control.
  • Currently, the Spectrum APP is only compatible with smartphones, tablets, smart TVs, Apple TV, Xumo TV (also known as Xclass TV), Xumo streaming boxes, Roku, Xbox One, or Google Chromecast. If you wish to install the Spectrum APP on your Firestick, it can only be done through sideloading, using a browser, or casting from a mobile device to the Firestick.

How Do I Set up Spectrum APP on Firestick?

Installing the Spectrum APP on Firestick is not a difficult task. Based on the experiences shared by users online, the following three methods have been verified as effective. You can try any one of them, and it’s likely that at least one will work for you.

Install Spectrum APP on Firestick Via Downloader

Since the Spectrum APP is currently not available directly in the Amazon store, you need to install it via sideloading. Here, I will use Downloader as an example to install the Spectrum APP on Firestick using a Downloader code.

Step 1: Install Downloader on your Firestick

  1. Open the homepage on your Firestick and navigate to the Search interface. Look for Downloader.
    search-on-firestick-1
    search-downloader-on-firestick-2
  2. Select Downloader from the search results displayed. Click on the download button on the left to download Downloader to your Firestick.
    If this is your first time downloading an app, a prompt may appear. Read it and click “Accept” to proceed.

    download-downloader-on-firestick-4
  3. Go back to the homepage. Now, we need to jailbreak Firestick to install Downloader. Navigate to Settings > My Fire TV.
    settings-my-fire-tv-5
  4. If you see “Developer Options,” proceed to the next step.
    If you don’t see “Developer Options,” click on “About,” then press the middle button on your remote on “Fire TV Stick Lite” 7 times. You will see a message saying “No need, you are already a developer.”
    Return to the previous menu, and you should see “Developer Options” available.

    my-firetv-about-firetv-stick-lite-7
    my-fire-tv-developer-8
    my-firetv-developer-options-9
  5. After entering “Developer Options,” you will notice different options depending on the version of your Firestick.
    In older versions of Firestick, there is only one switch under “Install unknown apps,” and you simply need to turn it on along with the “ADB Debugging” option, then proceed to the next step.
    In newer versions of Firestick, you need to select “Install unknown apps,” then choose Downloader and turn on the switch, as well as enable “ADB Debugging.”

Small tips:
If the code Downloader does not work, try the codes “584461” or “546302,” and make sure again that the “Install unknown apps” and “ADB Debugging” options are enabled.
If these three codes do not work, consider trying the other two methods we have listed for watching Spectrum TV on Firestick.
