Legal and free Amazon Fire Stick app unlocks ‘movies, live TV, action sports and music’ – you don’t even need log-in
AN ACTION-PACKED app unlocks free TV on your Amazon Fire Sticks.
The ad-supported download doesn’t cost anything upfront – and has no subscription charge either.
It’s called Red Bull TV, and is mostly dedicated to action sports.
You’ll get 24/7 access to the best of the Red Bull TV channel.
It’s totally legal and can be downloaded on your Fire TV devices from the official Amazon app store.
Red Bull explains: “Giving you front row access to live events, the very best in action sports, the hottest dance competitions and thrilling videos from world adventurers.
“Red Bull TV takes you beyond the ordinary with high quality on-demand and live streams.
“Discover music from trend setting artists, watch live events with top athletes and follow globetrotting daredevils to the most exciting corners of the planet.”
You don’t need a log-in, but you get bonus perks if you create one.
For instance, it would allow you to enjoy offline viewing, add favorites, and create custom playlists.
RED AHEAD
The app is relatively well-reviewed with a 3.7/5 score overall.
It’s based on more than 95,000 reviews, with 52% of the customer ratings awarding five stars.
A further 11% gave four stars, meaning the majority of TV fans who left reviews were happy.
One five-star reviewer said: “Red Bull TV seems to work fine for me. I have a 4K Samsung TV and good gaming internet.
“Everything comes in crystal clear with no lag. I am not into stick and ball sports. I enjoy Rally, Desert, Hard Enduro, Motocross, etc.
“This app works great for me. I am very happy with it and it’s ease of navigation and its content quality.”
Another said: “Red Bull videos are very entertaining. I enjoy the RV tours and active style documentaries of the lives the athletes live.
“I’m NOT into sports like basketball or football…too boring! Watch the Red Bull channel, it makes you want to go ride a dirt bike, dune buggy, mountain bike, snowboard, etc.”
And one called it a “must download”, saying: “This is a great TV app. Red Bull offers a series of different channels within the app so you have options on which to watch.
“They cover a bunch of extreme sports, reminds me of the best of Speedvision once upon a time.”
But fans who left bad reviews said they’d had issues with bugs in the app, including freezing and restarts.
