An excellent source for streaming content from American channels is ustvgo.tv app for firestick & ustvgo.tv app for fire tv, which specializes in bringing users streams from American TV networks.

 You can do this by going to “Settings” and selecting “Device” followed by “Device Storage.” Once in the “Internal Storage” folder, navigate to the “Download” subfolder. You should now have the installation file in your Fire TV device’s memory.

Installing the USTVGO Player From a Zip File
