fuboTV first launched as a soccer streaming app only, way back in 2015. For two years, they streamed every major soccer event only for $7/month per user. Soon their CEO David Gandler realized the potential and decided to take some risks.
And in 2017, fuboTV added entertainment channels and expanded its sports channel options. Now their channel collection includes the likes of ESPN, Disney, beinSports, MLB Network, NBCSN, and many more. They also have the credit of being the first-ever live-TV service to stream a full sporting event (2018 Soccer World Cup) in 4K HDR.
Their latest venture included launching a Sports Network, which provides the latest sports news as well as hosts plenty of original shows too.

Register For fuboTV
Before you download and install the fuboTV app in your Firestick, it’s better to check out its pricing and plans and register yourself. There are three main plans on offer for every region and one special plan for a Spanish audience only.
Every plan offers a 7-day free trial, except for the Latino Plus.
The Starter plan- priced at $64.99 per month- offers 114 channels, 250 hours of digital video recording, and can stream content on three screens simultaneously.
The Pro plan gives a bump to the DVR storage hours and allows ten screens at once. Only for $5 more. As they themselves say, it’s the best plan for sports-loving families.
Then, there’s the Elite Plan. For $79.99, it has 160 channels + 46 entertainment channels. The DVR storage and the number of screens stay the same as the Pro plan.
If you want to stream in Spanish only, you can go for Latino Plus. At $32.99 a month, you can watch every CONMEBOL soccer match and get access to 37 channels that stream hundreds of sporting events. It only allows two screens at once.
Whatever plan you choose, the video quality is 4K, and the streaming is buffer-free. But, if you stream using VPN, then the VPN you use will affect the performance.

How To Get fuboTV On Firestick/FireTV – Aptoide App
For Firestick users outside of the USA, this is the only way to get fuboTV access.
Aptoide is a third-party store to download apps for smart TVs and set-top boxes. It has over 2500 apps, and all the apps are free to download as well.

The process is a bit long, but seeing as it’s the only way to enjoy fuboTV on Firestick outside the USA, it’s worth it.
But first, you’ll have to allow Apps From Unknown Sources on your Firestick TV. Here’s how that’s done:
