Start Fires With Your Fire TV, Wherever You're Standing.

Firestarter is an APK app that allows a user to remotely manage an Amazon Fire TV from a mobile device, usually a phone. With Firestarter, a user can access and launch all of a Fire TV's apps, including those bundled with the TV such as Netflix and Amazon, as well as non-market, "sideloaded" apps.

Flint, tinder and flicks

Firestarter offers as many features as the Fire TV that it's linked to, and it does it all from a completely independent device. You can use it to manage your Fire TV in ways that are possible but sometimes more difficult from the TV itself; it really speeds things up. Setting it up requires work on both ends, though, and more than a dozen steps.

Finish up, and rest by the crackling hearth

Overall, Firestarter is an effective launcher for the Fire TV that can make accessing its features and apps even easier than using the TV itself, and it does it all in the palm of your hand, if you use a typical device to run Firestarter. Although it only works with Fire TV, and getting it to work at first can require some elbow grease, the results are well worth it, both for power users and frequent casual users.
