CAN I RECORD FOR WHATS PLAYING ON MY FIRE STICK? null

You can record the OTA (over the air) channels on this device. When you're watching an OTA channel, you can press the 'Options' button on the Fire Stick remote (the button with the three horizontal lines), and select "Record" from the popup menu. Also, once the Recast is installed, you'll find that Amazon Fire TV Stick sets up a 'ribbon' on its home screen dedicated to the OTA channels labeled "On Now". Scroll down to the ribbon labeled "On Now" and you'll see a row of most watched OTA channels. If you want to see the OTA TV Guide, stay on the "On Now" row, press the navigation button (round circle on the remote) to the left and select "Guide"; the TV guide appears.

You can only record what is being captured by the tuner built into the Recast box. So it needs to be a program being captured by your antenna. You cannot record a movie you are watching on Amazon prime video for example. Hope that helps.
