The flaw with the new operating system: Apps that were previously available before are no longer available. I'm not even talking about sideloading. I'm talking about apps previously available in Amazon's own app store. Tablo and Surfshark were nowhere to be found to install. I just went back to using an older Fire stick. I would have returned this one, but I didn't pay much for it. I just threw it on a TV I rarely use, hoping the apps I need will eventually be available so I can use it more. I would recommend sticking to Android-based Fire sticks as long as you can.

Brand response from Amazon Devices Customer Support

Hi AdmiralsFan,
Thank you for sharing your detailed feedback about the Fire TV Stick 4K Select and the new Fire OS. I'm sorry to hear that apps you previously relied on—like Tablo and Surfshark—are no longer available in the Amazon Appstore with the updated operating system. I completely understand your frustration, especially since these were apps you could access before without any workarounds.
App availability can sometimes be affected by operating system updates as developers work to ensure compatibility with new platforms. Here are some suggestions that may help:
Check for app updates: Sometimes apps become available again as developers release updated versions compatible with the new Fire OS. You can periodically check the Appstore to see if Tablo and Surfshark have been added back Contact app developers: Reaching out to Tablo and Surfshark directly to inquire about Fire OS compatibility timelines may provide insight into when (or if) they plan to support the new platform Check for software updates: Go to Settings > My Fire TV > About > Check for Updates to ensure you have the latest Fire OS version, as app compatibility may improve with subsequent updates
Your feedback about the loss of previously available apps is valuable and helps us understand the impact of platform changes on users. I appreciate you sharing your workaround of using the device on a less-frequently-used TV while hoping for app availability to improve.
If you have any other questions or concerns, please feel free to reach out to our support team at 1-888-280-4331 or through the Amazon app.

My TV was acting up no longer connecting to wifi. I immediately went out and purchased this firestick and it not only solved the issue but it connected with my Alexa device without me having to do anything (which was nice because I'm not the best at installation). Im very pleased both with the product and with the customer service upon purchasing it.

I had a old 1080p firestick for the lognest. Upgraded to the 4K select for only $20 on Black Friday! Way faster and I can actually watch 4k video and movies on my 4k display.

My uncle didn't want to pay for cable and this was recommended. He enjoys this a lot and he can still see old shows and local news.
