[Electronics-Talk] Fire Stick

[Christopher Gilland]

I've got a fire stick. Let me help.

Right below the circular ring on the remote is a row of 3 buttons. The 
one on the left is back, and the one on the right is menu.

Push and hold both of these as the same time for about 4 to 5 seconds, 
then release.

This will turn on Voiceview.

Chris.

My understanding is that you can use the alexa remote to scroll through the options, and the tv speaker will read the options, kinda like how voice over works, but I don't know how to do this at all. I'm told you can navigate netflicks, but I haven't been able to do so. Any help at all on this would be appreciated.
