How to install MuskTV on Fire TV with Downloader

Works on every Fire TV Stick sold since 2018 (Lite, 3rd gen, 4K, 4K Max), Fire TV Cube and Fire TV smart TVs on Fire OS 6 or newer. It takes about two minutes and you only do it once: after that, MuskTV updates itself.

7-day free trial, then $19.99/year · www.streamusk.com/apk

Install MuskTV step by step

  1. On the Fire TV home screen, open Find › Search, type Downloader and install the Downloader app (orange icon).
  2. Turn on Developer options if you don't see them: Settings › My Fire TV › About, then select your device name (for example "Fire TV Stick") seven times until it says you are a developer.
  3. Go to Settings › My Fire TV › Developer options › Install unknown apps and turn it on for Downloader.
  4. Open Downloader, select the address field, type the code 3716657 (or the address www.streamusk.com/apk) and select Go. The 2.4 MB download takes a few seconds.
  5. Select Install, then Open. When Downloader offers to delete the APK file, select Delete: MuskTV is installed and the file is no longer needed.
  6. Add your playlist: paste your M3U link or enter your Xtream Codes server, username and password. The TV guide follows automatically.

Menu names can differ slightly between Fire OS versions. On older models the setting is called Apps from Unknown Sources and is a single switch.

Put MuskTV on the home screen

New apps land at the end of Your Apps & Channels. Hold the Home button, choose Apps, select MuskTV, press the Menu button (☰) and choose Move to front so it appears in the row on the home screen.

Updates

MuskTV checks for a new version once a day and shows a banner when one is ready. It downloads and verifies the update itself; you only confirm the install. Your playlist, favorites and settings stay.

If something goes wrong

  • Downloader shows a web page instead of downloading: check the code is 3716657, or the address is exactly www.streamusk.com/apk with no spaces.
  • "Install blocked" or nothing happens after the download: Install unknown apps is still off for Downloader (step 3).
  • "There was a problem parsing the package": the download was interrupted. Delete it in Downloader's Files tab and download again.
  • Not enough space: uninstall apps you don't use. MuskTV needs only a few MB, but Fire OS wants free room to install anything.

Still stuck? Contact support. We help with the app, not with finding channels or playlists.

Questions

I can't find Developer options on my Fire TV

They are hidden on newer Fire OS versions. Open Settings › My Fire TV › About and select your device name seven times. Developer options then appear in the My Fire TV menu.

Can I delete Downloader afterwards?

Yes. MuskTV updates itself, so Downloader is only needed for the first install.

Where does the APK come from?

From our own server: www.streamusk.com/apk redirects to the latest signed release. The download page lists its SHA-256 checksum if you want to verify it.
