If you want to watch thousands of international TV channels, movies, and live sports using Sky Glass IPTV on Amazon Firestick, this easy guide will walk you through the installation from start to finish — even if you’re not tech-savvy.
This guide covers how to prepare your Firestick, enable unknown apps, install the right tools, and get Sky Glass IPTV running smoothly.
✅ What You’ll Need Before Starting
✔️ An Amazon Firestick (any model)
✔️ Stable internet connection (recommended 30 Mbps+)
✔️ TV with HDMI input
✔️ Sky Glass IPTV login details
✔️ A UK-based IPTV server subscription from your provider
🔒 Step 1 — Enable Unknown Sources on Firestick
By default, Firestick blocks apps from outside the Amazon Appstore. To allow Sky Glass IPTV installation, you must enable side-loading.
- Go to Firestick Home and click the Settings (⚙️) icon
- Scroll to My Fire TV
- Select Developer Options
- Click Install Unknown Apps (or Apps from Unknown Sources)
- Turn it ON for the Downloader app
👉 On some newer Firesticks, you may need to enable Developer Options first — go to Settings > My Fire TV > About and press the Firestick logo 7 times until Developer Options appear.
This permission makes your device ready to install third-party apps.
📥 Step 2 — Install the Downloader App
The Downloader app is the easiest way to download and install APK files directly on your Firestick.
- Press the Home button
- Click the Search icon
- Type Downloader
- Select the Downloader app by AFTVnews
- Click Download and wait for installation
Once installed, you’re now ready to fetch the Sky Glass IPTV APK.
📱 Step 3 — Download & Install Sky Glass IPTV
Now that Firestick can install unknown apps:
- Open the Downloader app
- In the URL field, type the Sky Glass IPTV APK link provided by your IPTV provider
- Press Go
- The APK file will download
- Once download finishes, click Install
After installation completes, click Done.
⚙️ Step 4 — Open Sky Glass IPTV and Log In
Now that the app is installed:
- Go back to the Firestick Home Screen
- Scroll to your Apps & Channels
- Find and launch Sky Glass IPTV
- Enter your Username, Password & UK Server Details
Your login and server information should come from your IPTV provider (they’ll give you credentials and server URL).
📡 Tips for Smooth Streaming
✔️ Keep your Firestick updated
✔️ Use a wired network or fast Wi-Fi for live channels
✔️ Restart Firestick if streams lag
✔️ Only use trusted APK links from your provider
⚠️ Important UK Legal Considerations
Using your Firestick and IPTV player is not illegal on its own, but streaming copyrighted content without genuine rights can violate UK copyright laws. Make sure your subscription and IPTV usage comply with regional rules and valid licensing.
