Re: Amazon fire TV app
We had Roku, too, Mary, and I found that app a bit easier to use, but nothing I felt totally comfortable with. We have Apple TV which I use, but it doesn't have Amazon Prime; but I get that on my Iphone and we can stream it to the TV it just buffers a lot. I'm keeping the Fire controller on my phone just in case they decide to update it with accessibility. Lisa On 7/9/15, Mary Otten motte...@gmail.com wrote: Thank you for the information, Lisa.

RE: Amazon fire TV app
Hi Mary. I also have a Fire TB Stick that I ordered when they were $19 for prime subscribers. Unfortunately, my experience was the same as yours with the app on my Nexus 7 but I never did try it on my iPhone. It's totally unuseable on Android. Hopefully your experience is better on IOS. I removed the stick from my home theater setup but if you find it to be useable with IOS, I may give it another chance. Keep us posted.
