How to Install Theater Plus APK on FireStick / Android TV Box

In this guide, I will show you how to install the Theater Plus APK on FireStick. You may also use this guide to download and install the app on Amazon Fire Stick 4K, Fire TV Cube, and Android TV devices.
Theater Plus APK offers on-demand content. You can install this app and watch movies and TV series. It has an impressive library of content.

This app is primarily designed for Android touch devices. If you experience any problems with navigation, install the Mouse Toggle app on FireStick.

Theater Plus APK offers one-click play. In other words, unlike some popular apps (say Cinema HD), it does not fetch multiple links. You simply need to click the play option and the app starts streaming.

This app is quite new as I write this guide. It might still be a work-in-progress. You may try it and decide for yourself how you like it.

How to install Theater Plus APK on FireStick

Theater Plus APK is a third-party application. You can’t download it from the Amazon Store. It will be sideloaded on FireStick. Therefore, the installation will be a 3-part process as follows:

  • Enable Apps from Unknown Sources (in FireStick Settings)
  • Install the Downloader application (it is a sideloading tool)
  • Install the Theater Plus APK with the Downloader app

The steps below cover the above three parts:

1: You need access the home-screen of FireStick first

On the home screen, go to the top menu and select Settings

2: Within the app Settings, go to the right and click My Fire TV

3: From these options, click Developer Options

4: Now, go to Apps from Unknown Sources and switch it ON

By default, it is OFF

5: When prompted with this message, choose Turn On in order to continue

6: We will now install the Downloader app, which will be used as the sideloading tool for Theater Plus APK

From the FireStick home screen go to the menu bar on the top again

Select the Search option in the top-left corner

7: Search for the Downloader app by typing its name

Click the app that appears in the suggestions and follow the instructions on the upcoming screens to install it

8: After installing the Downloader app, open it

Dismiss any prompts that appear

Click the section on the screen where you see http://

9: Now provide the URL from where the APK file of Theater Plus will be downloaded

Enter: firesticktricks.com/theater

Cross-check the URL once to make sure you typed it right

Click GO

10: Give it a few seconds to connect to the server and download the Theater Plus APK on FireStick

11: Next, click the Install button in the bottom right corner of the prompt that appears on your screen

12: Again, allow a few seconds for the Theater Plus app to install

13: You should next see the App Installed notification prompt. Theater Plus APK has been installed

Click DONE to go back to the Downloader application. It would be a good idea to delete the APK file you downloaded now that the app has installed

However, if you would like to start using the app right away, click OPEN

14: Now, hit Delete

15: Choose Delete on this prompt as well

In the following section, we will learn how to access and use Theater Plus APK on Amazon FireStick.

How to use Theater Plus APK on FireStick

Let me first show you how to access Theater Plus APK. However, if you already know how to do that, you may jump to the part where I have explained how to use this app.

First of all, access the home screen of FireStick again. You can press the Home button on your remote to go to the home screen at any time.

On the home screen, highlight the Your Apps & Channels row. It is the second row underneath the Recent row.

Go to the left (or to the far right) and click See All (if there is no ‘See All’ go all the way to the right where you will find Theater Plus APK)

Go to the last row on the next screen and click Theater Plus APK to open it

If you think you will be using this app frequently, it would be a good idea to put it somewhere on the home screen of FireStick. Press the menu button on your remote (the button with 3 lines). Now, click Move in the popup menu that appears in the bottom right corner of your screen. Drag the app to the first row.

I will now show you how to use Theater Plus APK on FireStick.

You may experience some navigation issues with the app. Therefore, I recommend installing Mouse Toggle on FireStick before using the app.

This prompt will appear on the first run. Click Allow.

Change Log prompt will also be displayed. Dismiss it by clicking OK

This will be the home screen of the Theater Plus APK.

It is not exactly a very user-friendly interface. This is why, I recommended Mouse Toggle.

There are three tabs on the top:

  • New Releases
  • TV Shows
  • Movies

By default, New Releases tab is displayed. When you click TV Shows (or Movies), the titles will appear as you see in the image below:

If you are looking for something specific, use the search tool in the top right corner.

To filter the content by genre/year, click the 3-line button in the top-right corner. The following dialog box is displayed where you can select the desired Genre and Year

Your FireStick / Fire TV is now all ready to stream your favorite content. However, before you start, I would like to warn you that everything you stream online is visible to your ISP and Government. This means, streaming free movies, TV shows, Sports might get you into legal trouble.

Thankfully, there is a foolproof way to keep all your streaming activities hidden from your ISP and the Government. All you need is a good VPN for Fire Stick. A VPN will mask your original IP which is and will help you bypass Online Surveillance, ISP throttling, and content geo-restrictions.

I personally use and recommend ExpressVPN, which is the fastest and most secure VPN. It is compatible with all kind of streaming apps and is very easy-to-install on Fire TV / Stick.

We do not encourage the violation of the copyright laws. But, what if you end up streaming content from an illegitimate source unintentionally? It is not always easy to tell the difference between a legit and illegal source.

So, before you start streaming on your Fire Stick / Fire TV, let’s see how to use ExpressVPN to keep your streaming activities hidden from prying eyes.

  • Step 1: Subscribe to ExpressVPN HERE. It comes with a 30-day money-back guarantee. Meaning, you can use it freely for the first 30-days and if you are not satisfied with the performance (which is highly unlikely), you can ask for the full refund.
  • Step 2: Power ON your Fire TV / Stick and go to the “Search” option on the extreme left. Now type “Expressvpn” (without quotes) in the search bar and select ExpressVPN when it shows up in the search results
  • Step 3: Click “Download” to install the ExpressVPN app for Fire TV / Stick.
  • Step 4: Open the app and enter your login credentials which you created while buying the ExpressVPN subscription. Click “Sign in”
  • Step 5: Click the Power icon to connect to a VPN server. That’s all. Your connection is now secure with the fastest and best VPN for FireStick.
