The process is pretty straightforward actually, as all you have to do is pair the devices once. Afterward, all you need to do is turn the Bluetooth devices on.

Once you do that, they will automatically be detected by the Amazon FireStick, as long as they are within an effective range of each other.

    • Also, make sure the device is visible publicly
  2. Navigate in the Fire Stick menu and go to Setting
  3. Select Controller & Bluetooth Device
  4. Choose Other Bluetooth Device
  5. Select Add Bluetooth Device
  6. Confirm the process by pressing Ok

Your Amazon FireStick will automatically start searching for your Bluetooth device, so give it a few seconds.

Remember to make sure your Bluetooth device is not paired with any other devices.

Once the Amazon FireStick finishes searching, you may pair the two devices.

Now you can fully take advantage of the Smart TV capabilities of an Amazon FireStick.

This, paired with the wireless capabilities of a Bluetooth speaker or set of headphones will truly make your multimedia experience a whole lot more enjoyable.
