Amazon Fire TV Stick users are just finding out they’re making ‘loading screen mistake’ that requires patience not panic
AMAZON Fire TV Stick users could be making a loading screen mistake while downloading updates.
That’s according to Fire Stick experts who revealed a specific time users should wait for the loading screen to disappear.
According to the experts at Lifewire, you should be waiting 10 minutes before worrying about Fire Stick loading issues.
The outlet says Fire Sticks can take a while to load some content.
There can also be a loading wait time when you’re installing updates.
Lifewire says: “If you turn your Fire Stick on and it sits on the logo loading screen, wait at least 10 minutes to see if the issue resolves itself.”
If the loading screen remains after 10 minutes, you might be dealing with a bigger issue.
A poor internet connection can negatively impact your loading speeds.
Make sure you’re using a network fast enough to support streaming on your Fire TV Stick.
HOW TO SET UP AMAZON FIRE TV STICK
To start the setup, you’ll need all the in-box accessories, a TV with a HDMI port, an Amazon account, and a wireless internet connection.
First, put batteries in your Fire TV Stick remote.
Then, connect the USB cable from the in-box accessories to your power adapter and the Fire Stick.
Plug in the Fire Stick to your TV’s HDMI port or use your extender as mentioned above.

Switch on your TV and select the correct HDMI input using the remote that came with your TV.
There should be instructions that pop up onscreen and they’ll help you connect to your Wi-Fi and download any updates.
You can then sign into your Amazon account and follow the instructions.
