How to Install Mobdro on Amazon FireStick

>

In this guide, I will show you how to install Mobdro on FireStick. The same instructions will also work on other Amazon Fire TV versions including Fire Stick 4K and Fire TV Cube. Mobdro is an IPTV service that offers you access to live TV channels from around the world for free. I have literally downloaded and used dozens of live TV apps, but Mobdro is the only one I have remained loyal to for the longest time. If you love to watch live TV on FireStick (or for that matter any Android device), I strongly recommend you give Mobdro a shot.

Mobdro has an exhaustive library of satellite channels. You can watch News, Shows, Movies, Sports, Music, Educational content, and just about everything you can think of.  This app is well supported and regularly updated to keep it free of bugs and glitches.

The only little challenge I have experienced with this app is related to navigation. While for the most part, it is remote-friendly, when you open the list of channels, it scrolls left to right as well as top to bottom. That makes things a bit inconvenient. Thankfully, it has an effective search option, that finds anything you are looking for. Just type in the name of the content or TV channel and the app will look it up for you within its huge media library. The fact that I get access to just about every channel I want to watch at one place, and that the app is fast, streams videos in high quality, almost without buffering, clearly overshadows its little shortcoming.

Steps to Install Mobdro APK on FireStick

Mobdro provides free live TV services. And, that’s enough for you to guess that it is not the part of Amazon Store. It is a third-party app, which will be sideloaded on your Amazon FireStick.

The security setting of FireStick would not let you download such an app by default unless you have enabled the option Apps from Unknown Sources. So, here is how you can do that:

1. Power on your Fire Stick and from the main-screen select Settings option from the menu bar on the top

1. When the following menu appears, scroll to the right and open My Fire TV / Device

1. Now select and click Developer options

1. If Apps from Unknown Sources is OFF, go ahead and click it to turn it ON

1. When prompted, click Turn On. It is a warning message but don’t worry about it. Mobdro is a tried, tested app. It is safe.

When you have turned ON the Apps from Unknown sources, you can go ahead and install the Mobdro app on FireStick. It’s easy. But, you will need an app that can download the Mobdro APK from the web.

Attention FireStick Users: Read before you continue

Governments and ISPs across the world monitor their users’ online activities. If found streaming copyrighted content on your Fire TV Stick, you could get into serious trouble. Currently, your IP is visible to everyone. I strongly recommend you to get a good FireStick VPN and hide your identity so that your movie viewing experience doesn’t take a bad turn.

I use ExpressVPN which is the fastest and most secure VPN in the industry. It is very easy to install on any device including Amazon Fire TV Stick. Also, it comes with a 30-day money-back guarantee. If you don’t like their service, you can always ask for a refund. ExpressVPN also has a special deal where you can get 3 months free and save 49% on annual plan.

Here are the reasons why you must use a VPN all the time.

FireStick can do a lot of things but it won’t let you download the APK files directly from the web browsers. I have tried Silk Browser, FireFox, nothing works.

That’s alright! If you want to sideload apps on FireStick, nothing does it better than the Downloader app. It is one of the first apps you must install when you get your FireStick, Fire TV or Fire TV Cube device.

Downloader is the part of Amazon Store. Hence, you should not have any difficulty installing it. All you need to do is access the Search option of FireStick from the home-screen (this option is on the far left on the top). Look up for the Downloader app by typing the name of the app. Follow the onscreen instructions and install Downloader.

Now that you have Downloader, let’s install Mobdro on FireStick. Here are the steps:

1. Launch the Downloader app and you will notice that it opens with the Home option (on the left) selected by default.
2. On the right of the Downloader main-screen (with Home selected) is the field to enter the source URL of the APK file you wish to download.

Click the field and the onscreen keyboard will pop.

1. Use the onscreen keyboard and enter the following URL for the latest Mobdro APK – https://www.firesticktricks.com/mob

When you are done typing, hit GO 

1. Downloader app is designed to instantly start downloading the APK file. So, allow it the time it needs to download Mobdro APK on FireStick. It won’t take too long. Mobdro is a lightweight app.

1. As soon as the Mobdro APK is downloaded, Downloader will execute it and initiate the installation of the app. You must now see the following prompt with Next button on the bottom right

1. Navigate to the bottom right and Next button will change to Install button. Click the Install button to continue

1. Now wait for your FireStick device to install Mobdro. It usually takes less than two minutes.

1. When Mobdro is installed on FireStick, you are presented with the following prompt saying App Installed.

As you see, it has two buttons on the bottom. If you click Open, you will be able to run the Mobdro app on FireStick straightaway.

But, that’s not what we want right now. Let’s click Done and go back to the Downloader interface. We will delete the Mobdro APK file.

This APK file is not required after the app is installed. Deleting will clear up space.

1. Click the button Delete

1. Click the button Delete again to finally delete the file

You have successfully downloaded, installed Mobdro on FireStick with the help of Downloader app. You have also successfully deleted the Mobdro APK file.

How to Use Mobdro Safely

Before you start streaming with Mobdro, I would like to warn you that everything you stream online is visible to your ISP and Government. To avoid any legal trouble, I suggest using a good FireStick VPN such as ExpressVPN.

I personally use ExpressVPN, which is the fastest and most reliable VPN in the industry. It also comes with a 30-day money-back guarantee in case you are not happy with the service.

Let me show you how to get and connect ExpressVPN on FireStick quickly.

Step 1: Subscribe to ExpressVPN HERE. It comes with a 30-day money-back guarantee. Meaning, you can use it freely for the first 30-days and if you are not satisfied with the performance (which is highly unlikely), you can ask for the full refund.

Step 2: Power ON your Fire TV / Stick and go to “Search” option on the extreme left. Now type “Expressvpn” (without quotes) in the search bar and select ExpressVPN when it shows up in the search results

Step 3: Click “Download” to install the ExpressVPN app for Fire TV / Stick.

Step 4: Open the app and enter your login credentials which you created while buying the ExpressVPN subscription. Click “Sign in”

Step 5: Click the Power icon to connect to a VPN server. That’s all. Your connection is now secure with the fastest and best VPN for FireStick.

How to Access Mobdro on Fire TV/Stick?

When you install any app on FireStick, it won’t appear on the home screen. Instead, it will go to your apps library called Your Apps & Channels and sit in the bottom.

So, I will show you how to access Mobdro on FireStick, which you have just installed. I will also show you how to bring it up onto the FireStick home-screen for quick access. Here are the steps:

Click Apps on this screen to go to your apps library

1. You can click the app to open it.

If you want to move the app to the FireStick home-screen, press the Menu button on the remote (it is the button on the left with three horizontal lines).

A pop-up menu is displayed on the lower right corner.

Click Move to Front to move the app in the first row at the first spot, ahead of all other apps.

If you want to place the app at any specific spot, click Move instead in the pop-up menu. Drag the app icon using the navigation buttons on your remote to the spot where you want it. Press the Select button on the remote to drop the app

That’s how you can move the app in the top row and access it from the home screen.
