I just got my Amazon Fire TV stick and love it but I am not seeing a way to install the TWC TV app. Can I do this?
There's a thread on this in the Themes & Apps section:

I have the Fire TV Stick all set up and awesome-ized. I have one issue though. There are a few Fire TV apps that I would love to have for the stick, but without access to a Fire TV, I can't migrate them over. One app inparticular, Minecraft PE, is a must have. I have the app from Google Play, but it doesn't have remote functionality like the Fire TV version does. I can easily purchase the app through amazon on my computer, but have no way to access it without a "compatible" device. How can I get access to Fire TV apps I've purchased, without having one? Stupid Amazon should just make it compatible with the stick, as it obviously works on it. Ugg

Unfortunately, there's no way to download an APK from Amazon even if you purchased the app.

Ugg. My son's world is Minecraft right now, and it would be great to have the remote enabled version on the Fire TV Stick. Know of a way to request getting it added as compatible for the Stick?
Interesting. I just pulled an update to 0.10.0 from Google Play and it works with the controller now. All is well with the world now. Haha

Actually you can if you create an Android VM in VirtualBox, sideload the Amazon app store, purchase the app from the store and backup the APK with ES File Manager.
I use BlueStacks (rooted version) on my Windows 8.1 laptop. Installed the Amazon apk and that device shows up under Amazon as a generic Android device. Exactly as the previous poster (install, backup using ES, sideload the apk on FTV), except I use BlueStacks.
Hello,
I have installed musixmatch TV from the amazon appstore and sideloaded youtube for android TV.
The musixmatch worked perfectly, and the youtube UI was perfect but it couldn't load videos (probably because the lack of the nexus player's video player apk).
Is there any way to sideload plex with the android TV on my amazon fire tv stick? Or maybe the android TV launcher?
Anybody try side loading the APK for the new "Vudu for Shield TV" app on the Fire TV? I am curious if it would work as Vudu is the only major app I am missing from Fire TV. I don't have a Shield to pull the APK from and test.
