Using YouTube TV on Amazon Fire Stick

There are a few versions of fire sticks to choose from. I recommend the Amazon Fire Stick Lite for around $25 or the Amazon Fire Stick 4K for around $40. The significant difference between these devices is the ability to watch videos in 4K, so this device may interest you if you want to take full advantage of YouTube TV’s 4K+ add-on package. For more information, you can look at our comparison of Fire TV Devices.
