How Do I Install BeeTV on My FireStick?
Bee TV isn’t available on the Amazon App Store so you’ll need to sideload the Bee TV APK on FireStick or Fire TV. The BeeTV download has to be done using a different app, but once you’ve sideloaded it you can install BeeTV fairly easily. Just follow these steps below.
Step 1: Enable Apps From Unknown Sources
There are many ways to get third-party applications on FireStick, but the easiest and the most straightforward one is to sideload it. To do that, you have to select and enable the option Apps From Unknown Sources.
Don’t worry about the setting itself, though. It’s just set to Disabled by default so that novice users don’t end up doing something foolish. As long as you follow the steps below you’ll have nothing to worry about.
- Turn on your Amazon FireStick or Fire TV device. Once you get to the home screen, select Settings at the top of the screen.
- Select the My Fire TV option. Depending on the exact model of your FireStick, you may see the same option as Device.
- Select the option that says Developer Options.
- You should see a screen where there’s an Apps From Unknown Sources option. By default, it’s turned Off but you need to turn it On. Your device may prompt you with another screen on which you may get another option to turn the setting on.
Your FireStick, Fire TV or Fire Cube device is now ready to install third-party applications. The next step is to download the BeeTV APK file so you can install BeeTV on FireStick.
Step 2: Get BeeTV on FireStick
FireStick, Fire TV and Fire Cube devices don’t have the ability to let users download files while they’re using a browser. In other words, you can’t just open your browser and then download a third-party app.
Unfortunately, this means there are extra steps to start the BeeTV APK download and then install BeeTV.
What you have to do instead is sideload Bee TV using a supporting app. This will be an additional app that you’ll have to install on your Amazon FireStick device apart from the BeeTV app. While it sounds like extra work, it’ll get you one step closer to watching movies and TV shows on your FireStick, Fire TV or Fire Cube.
Since both apps will work, we’ve included steps for both of these apps. Installing ES File Explorer or Downloader isn’t a difficult task since both of these sideloading apps are available on the Amazon App Store.
All you have to do is open up the Amazon App Store and use the Search option which is located in the upper left corner of the home screen. From there you’ll have to input the exact name of the sideloading app that you’d like to download and install. Just type ES File Explorer or Downloader into the search bar and start to install the application.
Step 3-A: Install BeeTV on FireStick via Downloader App
You don’t need to be concerned about the safety standards used by Downloader. It’s one of the most-used apps for sideloading on the Amazon Fire Stick platform. It can help you download and install pretty much any APK on FireStick that isn’t available in the Amazon App Store including Bee TV. Just follow the steps below to get started.
- Once you have the Downloader app on your FireStick, you need to open the app and then select the Home tab from the left-hand menu on the screen. Then select the field for a URL that appears on the right-hand side. In this field, you need to use the following URL: https://dl.dropboxusercontent.com/s/opvrelkzpklmvje/2.4.7.apk
- Select the button that says Go. Now you need to wait for a bit before your Downloader app is able to download Bee TV on FireStick.
- When the app is successfully downloaded, you should see a new window. You need to scroll down until you see a button that says Next. It should be right beside another button that says Cancel.
- Your app will change this Next button to Install if it’s working properly. Select the button that says Install. Again, you’re going to have to wait for a bit before FireStick is done and you successfully install BeeTV on FireStick.
- Your Amazon Fire TV Stick should show you a BeeTV App Installed message. This will confirm that your device now has the Bee TV App. All that’s left to do is open the BeeTV app and start watching TV shows. You can also wait and just select the Done button.
- After clicking Done, you should see a Downloader app window that says File downloaded successfully. Just below that message, you will see a button that says Delete. Click Delete to free up some space on your FireStick, Fire TV or Fire Cube device. You’ll only be deleting the BeeTV APK by doing this and not the BeeTV app.
You now have BeeTV on your FireStick. You can start watching TV shows as soon as you like and you can feel free to free up some space by deleting the Bee TV APK on FireStick. You can also choose to save the APK file if you think you might need to install the app again in the future.
