Q: QuestionHi, I saw 1 question answered that it uses the TV to power the stick then I saw another answer that said it came with a power adapter and cable, why would u need cable/adapter if it can be powered through the tv.?

Asked 11 months ago by Mcsutton.

• A:Answer Hello Mel, both of those answers are correct. The Amazon Fire TV Stick does come with a power supply for a wall outlet, which is the recommended way of powering it. Most TVs have a USB outlet on them near the HDMI ports that can power the Fire TV Stick. The downside of using the USB on the TV is that when the TV is powered off, so is the Fire TV Stick. If the Fire TV Stick doesn't have power when you aren't using it, the device will not complete any updates and you will have to manually do updates. I hope that answers your questions. Have a great day!

Asked 1 year ago by Don.

• A:Answer That depends on what you subscribe to. You buy the device, you pick subscriptions if you want them, whichever streaming service you want to use and pay for, but the Firestick itself does not cost you more than the purchase price.

Q: QuestionCan I download jw library with the fire stick

Asked 1 month ago by GemGirl.

• A:Answer Hi GemGirl! While the Fire TV Stick HD does support installing apps, it looks like currently the JW Library app only works on Fire Tablet devices. I would suggest checking out the Fire HD 10 tablet if you're looking for a good sized screen to read on! I hope that helps, have a great rest of your day!
