You can finally watch YouTube TV on Amazon Fire TV devices
By Simon Cohen
YouTube TV has been around since 2017, but ever since its launch, there’s been one glaring omission in the list of devices that support the live TV streaming service: Amazon’s popular Fire TV streamers. The reason was Google and Amazon’s famous feud — a tit-for-tat spat that only ended in April 2019. Now, the promise of reconciliation has finally become concrete as Amazon has just announced its formal support of YouTube TV on pretty much every Fire TV device.
Wondering what YouTube TV is and how it differs from regular ol’ YouTube? We’ve got a full, in-depth explainer that covers all of the bases, but in a nutshell, it’s an internet-based replacement for cable and satellite subscriptions, giving users access to more than 70 live TV channels for $50 per month. It’s not the only service to do this — there are now many companies including Sling TV, Hulu + Live TV, AT&T TV Now, FuboTV, and Playstation Vue that all offer live TV packages. YouTube TV also includes access to YouTube Originals content.
YouTube TV is one of the newest of these services and has been rapidly expanding both its reach, its channel selection, and its features. Once only available in a subset of U.S. markets, you can now subscribe regardless of where you live as long as it’s in the U.S. With the addition of Amazon’s Fire TV devices, YouTube TV is now as well-supported as the incumbents. The only exception to its Fire TV support is the first generation Fire TV Stick and the first generation Fire TV.
