AppleTV app not working on Firestick

I have always used the AppleTV app on my Firestick without any issues. All of a sudden for the past few days I always get an error message saying “Video Not Available” when I try to stream. I have tried uninstalling the app and reinstalling already, but that did not work.

Same problem of you guys. I made a lot of test before understand that the problem wasn’t the Apple TV + but the FireTV stick software.

Please try to go on settings, my fire TV, information and download the last software Fire OS 5.2.8.4

After 10 minutes my Apple TV return back to work as usual.

We are fairly new to the AppleTV app but have had the Firestick for awhile. We pay for the Apple TV subscription but are not able to watch anything on the AppleTV. We keep getting the message “to watch here, you must have purchased or rented the movie or episode on an Apple device”. I thought that was the point of the subscription. Also, Firestick is using latest update.
