Will this affect my Jailbreak Firestick?

I believe I will have to stop buying there devices

In short they only care about Money and third party apps cost them money.

I have the firecube, 4K fire stick, but I'm moving on to Nvidia Shield. I also like mecool devices. With these devices, you can do whatever you want. No one tells you what you can and cannot do.

Hello. Are you based in the USA? I ask because a lot of content lately from YT's who discuss firesticks tend to be based in Canada or the UK. Thanks for a reply!

I have updates blocked on my 8 firetv devices

I JUST INSTALLED A LAUNCHER ON MY FIRESTICK 4K YESTERDAY IM IN THE US I DONT THIS MY OPINION I DONT THINK AMAZON IS GOING TO BLOCK THIRD PARTY APP IF THEY DO SOME OF THOSE THIRD PARTY APPS AINT THAT RELIABLE ANYWAY IVE HAD A FIRESTICK FOR YEARS I HAVE EVERY FIRESTICK THAT HAS CAME OUT UP UNTIL THE 4K I DONT HAVE THE 4K MAX FIRESTICK BECAUSE IN MY OPINION ITS NOT THAT MUCH BETTER THAN MY 4K FIRESTICK

My old Fire Stick (all I've used since I disc it by an Ex back in 16) just quit on me, and the new 1 is exactly like depicted. I had enough probs just figuring out the new way to sideload 🙄 I haven't messed w/those buttons, except Netflix (without hitting 1 by accident 😂), but looks like they're doing everything they can to destroy my reason for loving the 1st one. Saving me literally 10's of thousands of 💵 on DirecTv w/Genie at $212 a month !! Evil capitalists 😤😡🙄💯

So they're going all APPLE on us

Only way Amazon will lose customers if they block third party apps.

Who is still using firestick I just bought 4k max and definitely not half as good as they advertised it to be slow as fuck no storage just sucks and I have 1200 Mbps speed all my android devices are smooth as butter but Amazon sucks

I think if they reduce functionality on existing devices, owners would be perfectly entitled to ask for a refund of the cost of the device or to ask them to put it back as it was. It has put me off. I've got several of these, including an older pendant device, which now seems to have trouble decoding 1080i broadcasts, and certainly some 4K streams having frame dropouts and stuttering when it used to be fine. It seems it's now destined for the trash can. I've also got two NVidia Shield TV (cylinder versions), with the Netflix button remapped to start the Channels app. These devices are far superior to the Firestick, in every way, but are significantly more expensive. I bought the NVidia devices, BECAUSE the Amazon firesticks do not do what I need, which is to make an environment for the lady of the house to easily use. Using apps available on Nvidia app store, I can remap keys, and even change the frame rate of each app as it starts up. We need apps which start and run at 50hz (BBC iPlayer, ITVX and the Channels TV app) and 60hz ( Netflix, Disney and Amazon Prime video) but none of this is easy to do on Firestick. Support is there, but apps aren't implementing it except iPlayer. Also Amazon should at least allow one large button on the remote to be customised, and make it easy to use it to start the app the user wants to use the most. If they block developer mode and the ability to run third party stuff, I've done with the7m forever.

I use vlc or titan

and this is why i got rid of my fire tv cube and got a nvidia shield pro

I currently have 3 Firesticks including a Firestick 4K max, I will continue to use them as long as they're working but will not buy any more Firesticks, I might get the new ONN TV Google box as my next purchase.

You are truly the best out here, thanks so much for all your hard work 😊
