Users can connect or disconnect, choose a VPN location, and manage the connection with a remote, and frequently used locations can be pinned to Favorites for quick access later.</p><p>Sign-in is handled with the remote in mind, too. The app supports TV-friendly sign-in, including QR code sign-in where available, so you don't have to type out a long password. Under the hood, it runs ExpressVPN's Lightway protocol, which is built to keep connections fast and stable for HD and 4K streaming.</p><p>Setup is straightforward. Open the Amazon Appstore on a supported Fire TV device, search for ExpressVPN, and download the app. Sign in with your account, then choose a location and connect. You will be asked to allow the one-time system VPN permission that Amazon introduced when it enabled VPN support on the platform.</p><p>If the app does not appear, check that your device is supported and updated to the latest software.
