‘Dream comes true’ say Amazon Fire TV users via app with thousands of free movies
A SURPRISING free app could transform the way you use your Amazon Fire TV Stick.
If you have an Amazon Fire TV device, there are plenty of ways to watch movies and shows for a fee.
But the Roku Channel app offers a huge library of content without you having to pay a dime.
It is free to download and there are no mandatory subscription fees either. The catch is that you have to watch ads.
The app may seem surprising considering Roku offers its own devices that compete with Amazon Fire TVs.
So it’s easy to miss that The Roku Channel is also available on plenty of other gadgets, including Amazon’s own streaming devices.
Roku says it has thousands of free movies and TV shows and offers more than 400 live channels.
According to Roku, these channels include “news, sports, cooking, DIY, music, reality TV, pop culture, true crime and sci-fi.”
You also get access to free Roku Originals, as well as Spanish-language content (including 65 live channels).
There’s the option to create an account so you get a more personalized experience, with Roku making recommendations based on what you’ve already watched.
Parental controls allow you to set up curated family-friendly content libraries so your kids can watch safely too.
CHANGE THE CHANNEL
It’s not surprising that the Roku Channel has a high rating on Amazon.
It has a rating of 4.3/5 based on more than 146,000 reviews from around the world.
And only 7% of people who left reviews gave it one star, while the majority of people awarded it five stars.
One satisfied viewer said, “The Roku Channel is a cord-cutter’s dream come true. With its diverse content library, easy-to-use interface, and cross-device compatibility, it has become my favorite streaming service.
“If you want to break away from cable subscriptions without sacrificing content quality, The Roku Channel is a fantastic option. Happy streaming!”
Another overjoyed Amazon customer wrote, “Steaming is a dream come true! For a free app, I rate Roku as one of the top 3 FREE streaming channels I have on a regular basis.
“It has beautiful picture quality and doesn’t drop streaming signals at all (unlike Paramount)! Opens easily and has minimal advertising. I can’t say enough good things about Roku… and I don’t like it judgement apps normal!”
And a cheerful TV fan added: “One of the best things we’ve ever done!
Their review continued: “We love The Roku Channel, we can watch everything for free and can add channels we use.
“There are over 100 channels in the channel guide, but you can also search for something specific.
“It’s the best thing we’ve ever done. And if you want to get rid of that, extra money you pay for a satellite dish, this is it!”
