With the Apple TV app on Fire TV devices users will be able to watch their purchased iTunes movies and TV shows, access Apple TV Channel subscriptions and watch Apple TV+ content when the streaming service launches on 1 November.

Fire TV Stick (2nd Gen) and Fire TV Stick 4K customers will be able to download the app starting today in the US, Canada, UK, Germany, France, Italy, Spain, and India. However, you cannot pay for Apple TV from the Fire TV itself and instead, you will need to login to your Apple ID.

Here is how you can install the Apple TV app on your Amazon TV device.

How to use the Apple TV app on your Amazon TV

Step 1: Check if your device is compatible to install the Apple TV app

Step 2: Search for Apple TV app in the app store or use Alexa and ask “Alexa, find the Apple TV app”

Step 3: Download the app and login with your Apple ID

Step 4: Search for all your content in the Apple TV app

If you don't find the app then don't worry since the roll-out is in a staged manner which means it could take a couple of days.
