Publisher's summary

Please note: This audiobook is not an official Amazon product. This audiobook is not endorsed by or associated with Amazon or Amazon Fire in any way.

Do you want to buy the Amazon Fire Stick or have you already purchased it? This audiobook will make sure you make the maximum use of your Fire Stick and become an expert.

The Amazon Fire Stick, sometimes called the Amazon Fire TV Stick, is a small remote control-like device that provides streaming video and audio when hooked up to your HDTV. This guide will provide you with the ultimate user experience for the little device with big aspirations.

Previous versions of the Amazon Fire TV Stick did not include the ability to sync with the Alexa voice remote, but now the compact, affordable device syncs with your other Amazon products and devices. In addition to syncing with the Alexa gadget, the Amazon Fire TV Stick has its own Alexa voice remote. You can press a button and guide the Amazon Fire TV Stick with your voice commands at any time. This new and improved feature of the Amazon Fire TV Stick is what makes the new models absolutely worth the upgrade.

One of the greatest benefits to the Amazon Fire TV Stick is the imposition of “pick up where you left off” viewing and listening. Should you be watching a movie or show and abruptly have to pause it to take care of something in your real life (IRL), Amazon will pick up right where you left off. This is true hours, days, weeks, and months out. If you can’t return to your favorite shows in a timely manner, Amazon will pause them for you for when you’re ready to come back. It’s pressure-free leisure at its best, and - as we are learning - at its smartest and most automated.

Now that you’ve learned about the Fire Stick and received an overview of its most universally applicable benefits, let’s do an even deeper dive into the specifics of the Amazon Fire TV Stick. We know you won’t be disappointed with what you learn. In fact, we would be willing to take a bet you will finish this guide with more knowledge than you began it with, as well as more convinced of the merits and superior usability of the Amazon Fire TV Stick.

Here's what you'll learn:

  • What is the Amazon Fire Stick?
  • Comparison of Fire Stick with its competitors
  • Setting up the Amazon Fire Stick
  • Streaming music and videos
  • Watching TV shows
  • Syncing Fire Stick with Alexa and other devices
  • Common troubleshooting problems
  • Top 10 apps used for the Amazon Fire Stick

Good way to learn what Fire Stick can do

This book is pretty good at explaining what the Fire Stick can do. It gives decent, concise explanations of the different features, such as Alexa voice navigation, and even a little bit of history of the previous incarnations of the Fire Stick. I've been thinking about getting one, and after hearing all the things that it can do, I think I'll actually do it.

The only issue with this book was with the narrator, not with the content. The person who was reading it sounded bored and disaffected, like they didn't care about the subject.

The narrator was clear but put me to sleep.

This book is well detailed, with information that will make your lifestyle relaxing, after a hard days work.
You deserve to sit back and relax, watch your favorite movies or listen to your favorite tunes.
John Slavio has given you the how to's on installing the fire stick and has unbiasedly compared it to other systems such as Apple TV, Roku, Android TV and Chromecast, as far as their capacities, and costs.
He has also explained how to stream your favorite music and movies.
The narrator was the wrong choice for this book. The author should have picked someone that actually is really into using the device. Someone who knows about it and is enthusiastic about the technology and it's many uses.
I felt like she was reading a car manual to me :-(

John Slavio Firestick User Guide

Upon purchasing an Amazon Firestick and realizing how much there actually is to it, I decided to learn more before using it. This book not only helps you understand the many features & learn to use them, it also compares the Firestick against the competitors to help you make the best choice for your needs. The narration is clear and precise, and the steps are easy to follow. I highly recommend this book for anyone who may be new to the Firestick or contemplating which device to purchase.
