I’m outside the US and have downloaded the Hulu apk via Downloader, but the app won’t work with my remote…any ideas?
Thanks 😊
You can use the mobile app for FireStick remote or you can install mouse toggle for firestick to make it work.
I’m having a couple of problems with my app on the Firestick after getting it from here. I can watch stuff on it, but I can’t pick an episode. It just stays stuck on the main image of the show, and I can’t scroll down to select episodes or anything.
Is your FireStick storage enough? Because sometimes your FireStick becomes too slow to operate. Let me know.
My Firestick has 5.35GB total. Only 3.40GB is being taken up. Even after installing the mouse toggle, it’s impossible to select episodes and recommendations, as I’m physically unable to move the screen to get to it.
You would need to enable Mouse Toggle by double press Play/Pause button. Are you sure you did that?
