How to Install Ola TV on FireStick
In this tutorial, you will learn to install Ola TV on FireStick. I have taken the screenshots used in this guide on my FireStick 4K. However, the method works the same way on other Fire TV devices including Fire TV Cube and older FireStick.
Ola TV is a Live TV streaming service with hundreds of cable TV channels. This app streams channels (local and national) from the United States and a host of foreign countries including the UK, Canada, Brazil, UAE, India, and more.
Ola TV APK is the replacement of now-defunct Relax TV, which was once very popular.
Ola TV requires two supporting apps: Kshaw and Ludio Player. It does not work with any other media players; not even MX Player.
I have provided the instructions to install Kshaw and Ludio Player immediately after the installation steps for Ola TV.
