So, you’ve got a new Firestick remote and you’re wondering how to connect it to your Firestick device? Well, you’re in luck because I’m here to walk you through the process step-by-step.
First things first, one method to pair your new Firestick remote with your Firestick device is by using the Fire TV app on your mobile device. Here’s how you can do it:
Begin by opening the Fire TV app on your mobile device. Once you have it open, navigate to the Settings option on your Fire TV device. From there, select Controllers & Bluetooth Devices, and then choose Amazon Fire TV Remotes. Next, select Add New Remote, and you should see your new remote listed as an option. Select your new remote to begin the pairing process.
Another way to connect your new Firestick remote to your Firestick device is by using the remote itself. Here’s how you can do it:
Start by pressing and holding the Home button on your new remote for about 10 seconds. This action should initiate the pairing process. Once the remote is paired successfully, you should see a confirmation message on your TV screen.
If you encounter any issues during the pairing process, there are a few troubleshooting steps you can try. First, make sure the batteries in your new remote are inserted correctly and have enough power. You can also try restarting both your Firestick device and your remote to see if that resolves the issue.
In the event that your new Firestick remote is still not pairing after trying the troubleshooting steps mentioned above, you may need to unpair any existing remotes that are connected to your Firestick device. This can help prevent interference and allow you to successfully pair your new remote.
Once you have successfully paired your new Firestick remote with your Firestick device, you should be able to use it to navigate through the various menus and apps on your Firestick. Enjoy the convenience of having a new remote that works seamlessly with your Firestick!
