I miss analog soooooo much. Plug it in, press play, “wala“.
-Turn on fire stick, wait to load.
-Navigate menu, often having to look for the right app because it’s not on your Home Screen which is loaded with stuff that’s not included.
-app loads
-app updates
-app reloads
-sign in using QR code
-app reloads
-choose a profile
-play movie
-app resets home screen
-app reloads
-finally works
This is not better.
Also, you can set up home on the firestick to put your most used apps on the home screen. And if you leave the firestick on all the time there is no load time and apps are updated automatically in the background. I don't leave mine on but even still I can power it on and be in YTTV within a minute.
this is what i was alluding to.
You guys are being disingenuous. You’re not avoiding loading when you switch between apps and we’re not talking about blockbuster.
Frequently used apps on a home screen removes exactly one of those steps I listed before.
This isnt exclusive to the Amazon fire stick. We’re talking about pretty much all streaming devices all the way down to “smart” washing machines.
I fully realize I am a proud Luddite
I disagree. i do not not find switching apps laborious, not cumbersome. it is very rare that i time out of apps and have to "do the dance" of logging back in. some require more steps than others to do so. some are very frustrating.
I guess that’s why it’s my pet peeve and not yours.
Agree to disagree.
