Even though Firestick is offering the Screen mirroring option natively, again but iOS and Mac devices are still not supported. There are obvious workarounds which you can use to mirror your Mac to Firestick. Let’s check those out.

I also made a list of ways with which you can mirror your iPhone to the Firestick and easily share your content to the big screen. The following apps simulate an AirPlay server on the Firestick and receive the content from computer and cast it on the TV.

1. AirScreen

AirScreen is one of the most popular apps to mirror both Android and iOS screens to the Firestick. The one-time setup is really simple, get the app from the Amazon Store (link below). Open the app and run the server on the FireStick and you should see the option pop up on your Mac. Unlike streaming from an iPhone, you can use your Firestick as a second monitor to play some videos while you work on your computer.

Pros

  • Easy to use UI
  • Quick Connection
  • Fast feed transfer

Cons

  • Unreliable connection on the Firestick 4K (maybe it’s the software issue)

Install AirScreen (firestick)

2. AirPin Pro

Just like AirScreen, AirPin Pro also lets you share the screen over AirPlay. It creates and runs the AirPlay receiver in the background so you don’t have to turn ON the server every time you boot your FireStick. It is great to mirror your computer screen or use your Firestick as an extended display. However, you can just play some music without mirroring the display. The app is paid and would cost you $4.99 but you can try the free version to see if the app works for you.

Pros

  • Local Connection Feed transfer
  • Different modes of AirPlay for Video and Audio

Cons

  • UI is confusing for the first-timers

Install AirPin Pro (Firestick)

3. Mirror for Fire TV

AirPlay is not the only way to mirror your Mac screen to the Firestick. Mirror for Fire TV is another mirroring app which lets you cast your screen to the TV effortlessly. You just install the receiver app on the Firestick via the following link and install another app on the Mac. It automatically detects your Firestick on the same network and seamlessly streams the footage. Unlike AirScreen and AirPin Pro, you can drop the video files from your Mac and play it on the Firestick without much lag. However, it comes with a price tag of $9.99 and you can try it for three minutes before purchasing the paid version.

Pros

  • High-speed local connection
  • Dedicated channel for playing videos

Cons

  • The app requires installation on both devices

4. Splashtop

Mac

If you’re serious about mirroring your computer to your TV then maybe try Splashtop. It is a popular remote mirroring app which you can use to cast your screen to the TV. It is more than just a mirroring app and you can even control the mac from your TV but you would need to connect a keyboard and a mouse using a splitter cable. Nevertheless, Splashtop is a legitimate option to mirror your Mac Screen to the Fire TV Stick. The only caveat with this app is that you can’t install it natively. However, you can get it from Aptoide TV.

Pros

  • Secure Connection
  • Allows remote control of Mac from TV
  • Easy UI

Cons

  • Requires additional hardware to work as a remote solution
  • Doesn’t work without the Internet

TeamViewer- Alternatively, you can use TeamViewer client to remotely log in to your Mac from your Firestick. It works just like Splashtop and lets you see the Mac screen and lets you control everything on it. You can get it on Aptoide TV app.

Mirror your Macbook on the FireStick

These were some of the best apps which let you view your iPhone screen on the big screen. AirScreen and AirPin Pro are efficient and available on the Amazon Store. Splashtop is great because you can actually control your mac from the TV. It is perfect when you have to log in to a remote machine at your work or at a remote location.

Mac Desktop App For Fire Tv Stick

Apple today released the Apple TV app for Amazon TV devices, starting with the Amazon Fire TV Stick 4K and the older HD model. Support for Fire TV (3rd generation penchant design) and some other models is coming soon.

The TV app experience on Amazon’s platform mirrors the functionality of the Roku app, which launched last week. Users can watch their purchased iTunes movies and TV shows, access Apple TV Channel subscriptions and watch Apple TV+ content when the streaming service launches on November 1st.

Amazon Fire Desktop App

Apple is keen to get the TV app in front of as many eyeballs as possible with opportunities to sell customers on recurring subscriptions, whether that is through reselling channels like HBO, Showtime and Starz or attracting subscribers to its collection of original content TV shows and movies through Apple TV+.

To get the app on the Fire Stick, search for “Apple TV” in the app store or use Alexa and ask “Alexa, find the Apple TV app”. You can also use Alexa to find TV+ shows directly, like by saying “Alexa, find The Morning Show”.

Here’s the full breakdown on Amazon Fire TV device support for the new Apple TV app:

Fire TV Stick (2nd Gen) and Fire TV Stick 4K customers will be able to download the app starting today in the US, Canada, UK, Germany, France, Italy, Spain and India. Fire TV Basic Edition customers in over 50 countries can also find the Apple TV app in the Amazon Appstore on their Fire TV. The app will be coming soon to Fire TV Cube (1st and 2nd Gen), Fire TV (3rd Gen pendant design), Toshiba and Insignia Fire TV Edition smart TVs, and Nebula sound bar. The Apple TV app is not compatible with Fire TV (1st and 2nd Gen) and Fire TV Stick (1st Gen).

Mac Desktop App For Fire Tv Series

You cannot pay through the Amazon Fire TV itself. Instead, the TV app will prompt you to log into an Apple ID and offer any content that you have bought on that account from your other devices. As always, Apple TV Channels and Apple TV+ support up to 4K HDR playback quality with a single subscription shared amongst six people through Family Sharing.

TV Provider functionality is exclusive to iOS and tvOS and not available on Amazon Fire TV or Roku. Also note that the Amazon Fire TV app does not support Dolby Vision or Dolby Atmos at this time. All that and more explained here.

Apple TV+ will be available on November 1st with a small lineup of premium content, with Apple promising to add new originals every month. If you bought a new iPhone, iPad, Mac, iPod touch or Apple TV since September 10, you are eligible to redeem a free year of Apple TV+ to share across all your devices, including the newly-launched Amazon Fire app.

If you can’t find the Apple TV app on your Amazon TV device right away, give it a while. It took several days for the Roku TV app to propagate worldwide, for example.

With this announcement, Apple has now fulfilled its promise of launching on Roku and Amazon Fire TV platforms ahead of the Apple TV+ launch. Roku and Amazon Fire TV set top boxes are simply much cheaper alternatives to the good-but-expensive Apple TV HD and Apple TV 4K.

The TV app is available now on select Samsung smart TVs and is coming “in the future” to smart TVs from LG, Vizio and Sony.
