How to Install Facebook on Firestick [2 Methods, 2024]

Facebook is a widely popular social media platform that allows users to share updates, photos, and videos, and also interact with friends and communities.

Facebook is free to download and use, although some features (e.g. boosting posts for broader reach) require payment.

In terms of accessibility, Facebook is not geo-restricted except in a few countries like China, Russia, Iran, and North Korea.

Unfortunately, the Facebook app is unavailable on Amazon Appstore, so you will have to sideload it using a third-party source. So be sure to use a VPN to enhance your online security. ExpressVPN is our #1 choice.
