How to Install and Use AppLinked on Firestick/FireTV 4k
Install AppLinked using the Downloader app on your Firestick/Fire TV device. Enable Apps from unknown sources beforehand to do that; once downloaded, enter a working store code to view available apps to download.
You can also create your own store codes, which you can use personally or share with others. Otherwise, continue onto the later parts of this guide, as we’ve listed some working store codes that you can use.
What is AppLinked?
AppLinked is the de-facto successor of the popular file-sharing app FileLinked. After FileLinked was discontinued, AppLinked became the go-to replacement for most Firestick users, which elevated its popularity.
Using AppLinked to download an app is easier and more convenient because you only need to input codes instead of lengthy URLs. Plus, the app is very accessible since it’s compatible with a wide array of smart devices.
Is AppLinked safe and legal?
In terms of legality, AppLinked is simply an alternate app store for downloading other third-party apps and doesn’t host any of the content. Thus it’s completely legal to download, install, or use the app.
NOTE: Use a VPN when making the most of AppLinked. The legality of the content and apps you download through AppLinked could be in question, and using a VPN in this situation helps keep your online activity safe. |
After a change in ownership, the newer updates of AppLinked raised some red flags, especially with its bigger download sizes. In this regard, we strongly advise running the APK file you are to download on VirusTotal for free before installing it.
