After this, try to google this question and then found that many people like me are also searching for this question. That’s why I thought to do complete research on it to learn if it is even possible or not.
However, if you also came to this website seeking the same question then you surely came to the right place. It is because after researching a lot I have found several things that I want to discuss with you. Also, keep in mind that this guide is for all FireTV devices including FireTV Stick 4K, 2nd, 3rd Generation, Lite and even for FireTV Cube.
This is why if you own any of these devices then I would recommend you to keep reading this guide until the end. As I am going to share everything related to that question and provide you with a method too. Furthermore, you will learn the simple and easiest way to bypass amazon registration.
Can I Really Bypass Amazon Fire Stick Registration?
Firestick is the product of Amazon that means to use this device you are required to have an Amazon account. People who purchase this device from their website get registered. Unlike those who purchase it offline like any local electronic shop are required to register it by themselves.
Now the question is, is there a way to use Firestick without Amazon Account? So, the simple answer is yes, there is a way to use it without using the account. This process is quite complicated and a user must have some knowledge of Unknown Source and jailbreak on a FireTV.
It is because a user is required to instal a 3rd-party launcher and with the help of this it won’t require having an Amazon account. This is the reason why you should first learn about these terms and afterwards, you can simply check out this whole guide. As there are some complicated steps that you should read carefully or you end up having some problems.
How To Use FireStick Without Registration of Amazon Account
After you completed jailbreaking and enabling apps from Unknown sources you are now ready to move to another step. In this section, we are going to use an app called AppStarter which is renamed from FireStarter. This is basically a launcher that is used to replace stock Amazon UI with a completely new and simple layout.
As we know that Firestick is developed by Amazon that’s why you notice too many advertisements for Prime Video which is annoying. This is why a developer from XDA named sphinx02 made this launcher that doesn’t have any ads and provides a simple layout to access apps quickly and easily.
With the help of AppStarter, we can simply use Firestick without Registration of an Amazon Account. However, this app isn’t available on the App Store which means we need to sideload it. For this, we first need to download an app called Downloader that is used to download and install 3rd-party apps on FireTV devices.
It is completely free to use and has several other features like Managing downloaded files or apps. Also, it has a built-in web browser that is not good enough but still can be used for surfing the internet. Even though it has several other features so if you are interested you can check this guide: How To Install Downloader App On Amazon Firestick
