Buy the remote with voice and it will work in your older box.

If you don't have Alexa by now though some kind of update your probably not going to get it on your first gen

yes

David · Answer

Buy the new one. Is worth it at the end of the day. I never use Alexa on the fire tv but on my Amazon echo.

I dont think so. The remote changed on the new generation and It added a microphone and another button. I push on the button to activate Alexa. On the older unit you had audio fiber out, on the new unit you loose that connector.

You will have to buy a new one as of now, it is unlikely that there will be any updates for gen1
