“Can Amazon Fire TV Stick use a keyboard and mouse with my Samsung Smart TV? I want to be able to see YouTube videos again on my Smart TV as I used to watch with my WD TV Live that had HDMI and USB and audio ports to connect to both the Smart TV (HDMI and audio), and to a keyboard (USB). BTW, the WD TV Live streaming media device played YouTube videos very well via the Smart TV, better than the slow Smart TV's browser. ? How can I use a keyboard with the Amazon Fire TV Stick to type in searches for YouTube videos, and then to save them into my YouTube folders that are online with my Google account, watching thru my Samsung Smart TV?”

Sorry, there was a problem. Please try again later.There is a app you can install on your phone to use it as a remote and you can use either voice searching or type with the phone keyboard
Sorry, there was a problem. Please try again later.yes you can pair up a bluetooth keyboard and mouse to any firestick model, i am typing this in using the fire with an keyboard attached. one answer here i noticed was mentioning about problems with the integration, you can overcome all of that by running wolf launcher on the fire rather than the amazon home screen, then download leankey keyboard pro 6.14 application and uncheck the keep on screen box in settings (this stops the onscreen keyboard when the physical keyboard is in use). some adb commands will have to be entered using remote adb shell to run leankey application, to do all of the above go to techdoctor uk - were there are tutorials and videos on youtube explaining every step for all the above. i use my fire just like a desktop as i am doing typing this in right now, i have a mouse which allows me blaze through third party apps like opera browser, vanced youtube, etc with ease.
Sorry, there was a problem. Please try again later.The FireTV Stick WILL work with a bluetooth keyboard. If you are in the YouTube app and are signed into your YouTube account, any videos you watch or save will attach your account history in YouTube and are available on any other devices you use.
Sorry, there was a problem. Please try again later.Yes, I use a keyboard and mouse combo and it works just fine.
Sorry, there was a problem. Please try again later.best way is with Amazon Fire TV app on a cell phone, but cell must be logged on same network as Fire TV
Sorry, there was a problem. Please try again later.sure you can. Easily. Plug the USB/Mini adapter into your Firestick mini-plug outlet and plug the male USB plug into the USB port on your tv and the only thing that limits your use is the size of USB adapter port devices come with your device. Personally i chose a 4 port. one for my wireless keyboard, a USB port for my mouse a third USB port to connect my Iphone to Itunes and occassionally i use the last one to charge a device while im online-across the roomutilizing any browser i choose thanks to the AMAZON FIRESTICK!
Sorry, there was a problem. Please try again later.If you download the Amazon fire tv remote app from the App Store (Mac)or play store (android),it has an option for keyboard entry.
Sorry, there was a problem. Please try again later.I dont understand,how come on youtube theres all these videos showing amazon fire sticks working with keyboards.
Sorry, there was a problem. Please try again later.Yes & No. Yes -- you can type. No -- the integration sucks. The Amazon on-screen keyboard will pop up every 2 seconds (or not disappear at all), covering the content you just tried to see....until the keyboard is unpaired or removed from USB. I spent ~30 minutes with Amazon Customer Support asking them to give a feature request for allowing USB Full Stack (which is required for keyboards). The feature as we want it now (un-inhibited browsing of any site we want using a keyboard/mouse combo device is not possible right now. Not to say they won't add it in the future, but the implementation sucks right now. Wait.
