VUDU is a video streaming app that provides the latest and classic content that is legally available on Rent and for purchase on Walmart and safe to use.
The App is available to install on Amazon App Store which is an authentic app store.
However, the app is limited to the US, so to access the content you have to use ExpressVPN and connect to the US Server.
Vudu App Alternatives
If you’re a fan of watching Movies and TV Shows for free and don’t want to spend a dime on them, then I’ll recommend you install the following apps as an alternative to Vudu:
- Bee TV App on FireStick
- CyberFlix TV App on FireStick
- Media Lounge app on FireStick
- Movies HD on FireStick
You can install any of these above apps, or you can look for some best 100% working apps for firestick that we recommend using in 2021. Your choice! But as I mentioned earlier, you’ve got to use the best working VPNs for Fire TV that will keep your online activity private while you stream free content.
Frequently Asked Questions

Yes, the Vudu app is easily sideloaded on Firestick, but it is not yet available on the Amazon app store. You will need to install the Vudu app to make it work on a FireStick device.

The Vudu app contains many free Movies and TV Shows but some of the recent movies and TV Shows are available for sale and rent. Technically, Vudu is not just a free app it is a paid app too.
Final Words
VUDU is a Wal-Mart app that is downloaded for free but uses a different business model in selling its product. It allows users to watch the media content on rent, while it also permits users to purchase the product via the app.
In this guide, I have discussed detailed steps on how to install Vudu on FireStick. These steps involve using a VPN as well since the service is unavailable outside the US.
This was awesome! The only issue I had was the Vudu link wasn’t for the latest APK. I scrolled down to the latest. Had to click Download a couple times but the Vudu installed and works flawlessly. I can even watch HDX streams on a 2nd Gen Stick!
I keep getting account suspended.
The ad for free VPN is bogus. It’s not free.
Followed the directions and got the app installed but once I tried to open Vudu, it keeps saying that the password does not meet requirements even though I can open vudu just fine on my computer. Help
I turned off the TV, removed the firestick, unplugged the power and waited 10 secs. Then connected power, inserted back into HDMI slot and turned on the Tv again. This time it worked.
Should I go back in and turn off Apps from Unknown Source and ADB Debugging after downloading the app? This worked great by the way. Thank you
getting an error that says it “Encountered an error during playback. Please try again”. This happens on every movie I try to watch.
It doesn’t play 4K uhd. That’s why you got that error. Try to play hdx movie and it will work. Only from hdx to sd. So if you want to watch movie on Firestick with vudu you can rent or purchase hdx.
Can you explain why the VPN portion is necessary? You mention not getting “caught” Can you just let me know the importance of that step. I just bought the new 4K Firestick and was very disappointed it did not have VUDU access. Thank you.
If you watch the kid I app and don’t pay for movies and tv you would normally pay for then yes get a VPN so the people who “police” this sort of piracy won’t catch your up address. To my knowledge if you are using for vudu with an account you already have it’s not necessary but still a just in case sort of thing. Identity theft happens even on firestick
KODI app. Not kid*****
Followed all steps and it works great except one problem… I cannot watch ANY UHD 4K movies that I purchased. I can watch my HDX movies but idk what’s going on.
Can anyone help me out?
This is not working for me. I downloaded the downloader and put that web address in, but there’s nothing that says “download latest APKs” nor “VUDU for fire tv” There are a lot of them that say “VUDU Movies & TV (Android TV) and a bunch of other ones that have nothing to do with VUDU. Did something change?
Thanks! Works. Just be sure to turn on java in your browser.
I loaded the app just fine and logged into my account with no issue. But I have no options to rent or buy movies. All I can do is watch what I already have in my library. Any idea how to fix this?
The URL is for Android, not Amazon Fire Stick. 🙁
> The URL is for Android, not Amazon Fire Stick
Fire TV *is* Android- just download and try it.
Tried & was told the url could not be found. 🙁
I did step 1 and 2 no problem.
Now I’m on step 3,my TV just say connecting for 20minutes now.
Now it say error no connection.
I’m bummed!
ignore some of the instructions. there is no “download latest APKs” option. the VUDU version that automatically appears is apparently the correct one as the latest version did not work, but going back and installing the one that appeared at the top of the page worked fine. thanks.
This worked great on our fire stick. For those having trouble, make sure the link is spelled correctly. It is an “O” and not a “0” (zero) after the 2. 🙂
After downloading it is very attracted on the screen. I can’t do anything but close it when it is open. Help?
*stretched
Thanks. I couldn’t log in with my vudu account but I was able to log in with my Walmart account and able to watch my TV and Movies. I have the movies anytime or whatever it’s called that I can watch my vudu movies but not the TV . Now I can watch both on my 4k Amazon Fire stick and I also turned the external download thing off.
No matter what version of the VUDU apk I download and install, 4K movies (UHD) not play on my Fire TV 4K. I can play HDX just fine, but if I try to watch a UHD movie, the 4 dots spin for just a moment and then it goes right back to the movie cover page. I have verified that I have the most current firmware on my TV and Fire TV 4K and have rebooted both several times. Any thoughts on why this is happening?
I have the 4k Fire Stick and have tried to go thru these steps but I do not get the downloads latest apks screen at all. But, I continue to scroll down and see the VUDU app and click on the install button and it doesn’t install due to some error that I can’t remember. Sooooo….. What other steps are there to get VUDU on my 4k Fire stick? I don’t even see the download latest apks option anywhere at all. In which I walked thru the steps with the video above and see nothing of that page at all just to say it again.
I’m new to this but successfully installed and ran “downloader” app. Question no is, how do I enter the url when there is no alpha/numeric interface or keyboard???
Crazy question or comment but I need help with typing out the url address. How do you type out the address using a fire stick? So frustrating HELP
I need help typing in the URL in the downloader. How do you type using the fire stick. Trying to download VUDU and I can’t get past this point.
I could not get this to download unless I clicked alllow access to photos
This used to work but now I can’t get the cursor to move to sign up sign in etc.
I can’t get it the cursor to move, either. Is there anyone that can help?
You can try restarting your Fire TV Stick or using the mobile app for FireStick remote to work. You can even try using the mouse toggle app. That should solve your problem.
I have it downloaded but I am not given an option to watch, buy, or rent? The only option I am given it to watch the trailer. Can someone revise me as to what I need to do. Thank you
I am having the same problem, only option is to watch trailer. NOW WHAT
You will need to subscribe to its premium plan.
Can’t watch a movie, just the trailer. Any suggestions on what to do??
You will need to subscribe to its premium plan then. The majority of the movies are free but some of them are premium.
When I put int he URL to download, it did not give me any options to choose from. IT automatically downloaded VUDU, but it downloaded a .bin file that the Firestick can’t install. I have the Firestick Lite, and i noticed a couple of the steps had to be altered, such as I had to download the Downloader app, then go to developer options and give the app access to download from third parties. I entered the URL as it was shown on the screen. any ideas?
Hey Kimberly, try once again because you will see the options when you out the URL and you would need to choose VUDU. Only then the installation will start. Try once again and let me know.
Hi I downloaded it, I opened app but there is no cursor to click sign on. There’s no prompt
Try installing Mouse Toggle which works like a cursor for FireStick. Let us know if it works or we’ll try something else.
This was so helpful! Thank you
You’re welcome! 🙂
I have been trying to get this downloaded since I got the fire cube…worked like a charm…Thank You
We’re glad that it worked out for you!
Hi! This method always worked before, but it doesn’t seem to be working on the new firesticks I bought. Every time I try to click the Download Installation File tab, it says: “An unknown error has occurred. Check your URL and connection.” I’m in the US, so I shouldn’t be blocked for that reason. Can you please help me figure this out?
Have you enabled apps from Unknown Sources in the New firestick?
Followed step by step and it didn’t work all I got was an unknown error has occurred. Check your url and connection
Did you use a VPN and connected to the US server?
When I try to download the file I get, An unknown error has occurred. Check your URL and connection.
We have re-checked the URL and its working fine. Kindly check it again and let us know.
Yeah now I can watch vudu on my fire stick can’t buy movie on it. But I can watch my movies yay!!!
Hey Alisha you can also try this guide for free movies too.
4k now works on vudu on firetv stick. Bo more “unable to play UHD” error messages.
Do you use a VPN? Because it requires a VPN to unblock VUDU. ExpressVPN works bets with Vudu.
Tells me that it is an old version of Vudu and I need to install the new version. Any idea where to find the new version of the file?
This is new version we updated the link through the backend of the link. Today is 26 oct 2022 and this link is up to date
