[Electronics-Talk] Amazon fire sticks

I have the same TV, but it never says Voiceview updating.  Is something
wrong?

I am glad you gave me your brand. This means that probably is in all amazon
devices that have voice view. Any appliance that wakes me up in the middle
of the night if I forget to turn it down is a major glitch!

I've actually got the toshiba fire tv, and I turn the volume down a good bit

so that when it says voiceview ready, it won't awaken me. I have a feeling
that it's not a bug in the software, but rather the tv updating itself and
rebooting.

I bought the 24 inch Insignia fire tv with Alexa built in. The problem was
about 2 times a week in the middle of the night it would say voice view
ready! This was with the tv shut off! This is a soft wear problem. No one
could figure out how to stop this. My tv was in the bedroom & I was not
going to be woke up by the tv 2 times a week. The ecko show does the same
thing, but you can tell it to go home & that stopes the behavior for the
most part but not 100%. I sent it back & got the fire stick with Alexa
remote & really like it.

Thank you. We are trying to decide, and you may know, if the firestick will
work with our tv, we got it in 2012. We are trying to decide if we want a
firestick or spring for the tv with the firestick built in, husband isn't
sure he wants involuntary adds.
Are you sure there isn't a youtube app for the firestick? Sounds like an odd
oversight.

The Fire Stick is very accessible, in my experience. We have used our with
Sling TV, CBS All Access, PBS, Amazon Prime, and probably a couple other
apps as well. I just which there was a youtube TV app for the Fire Stick.
