Are you tired of constantly switching between your Amazon Fire Stick and your TV remote? It can be a real hassle, especially when you just want to adjust the volume. But fear not, because some clever owners have discovered a genius hack that will make your life so much easier.
You see, the Amazon Fire Stick remote actually has buttons for both power and volume control. However, many users were not aware of this convenient feature. Not only does it save you from the frustration of constantly switching remotes, but it also comes in handy if you happen to lose your main remote and don't want to spend money on a new one.
But as with any hack, there are some limitations. Some TV manufacturers do not support this feature, so it may not work for everyone. If you're unsure if your TV is compatible, here are some steps you can try to find out.
First, go to your settings and select "Equipment Control." From there, click on "Manage Equipment" and go to the TV option. Then, select "Change TV" and the Fire Stick will attempt to recognize your TV's model. If it's correct, simply tap "Yes." If not, tap "No" and choose your TV's manufacturer from the list.
Next, you'll be prompted to press the power button on your Fire Stick remote. If it successfully turns off your TV, wait 10 seconds and press the power button again. The Fire Stick will then ask you if these actions did indeed turn off your TV. Simply tap "Yes" or "No."
And just like that, your Fire Stick remote will be updated and ready to control your TV's volume and power. No more switching remotes or dealing with the frustration of misplaced or broken remotes. Thanks to this clever hack, your TV viewing experience just got a whole lot smoother.
