How to Watch Milano Cortina 2026 on Amazon Fire TV / Fire TV Stick

Quick answer

To watch the 2026 Olympics on Amazon Fire TV / Fire TV Stick, install the Peacock app from your device's app store, sign in with Peacock Premium, and navigate to Sports > Olympics for live streams and replays.

Apps available

Peacock

Go to Find > Search > 'Peacock' > Download

NBC

Go to Find > Search > 'NBC' > Download (requires cable login)

YouTube TV

Go to Find > Search > 'YouTube TV' > Download

Step-by-step setup

  1. From the Fire TV home screen, go to 'Find' and then 'Search.'
  2. Type 'Peacock' and select the app from the results.
  3. Click 'Download' or 'Get' to install the app.
  4. Open Peacock and sign in with your account credentials.
  5. Head to the Olympics section on the Peacock home screen.

Troubleshooting

Buffering: close other apps running in the background. Go to Settings > Applications > Manage Installed Applications to force-stop unused apps.

App crashes: clear the Peacock app cache via Settings > Applications > Manage Installed Applications > Peacock > Clear Cache.

No 4K available: 4K Olympics streaming requires Fire TV Stick 4K or newer and a Peacock Premium Plus subscription.

Watch on these platforms

Got a Fire TV Stick or Fire TV Cube? Say “Alexa, open Peacock” and you’re halfway there. Amazon’s Fire TV platform has full support for all the apps you need for the 2026 Winter Olympics.

Installing Peacock on Fire TV

  1. From the Fire TV home screen, go to Find > Search
  2. Type “Peacock” (or say “Alexa, find Peacock app”)
  3. Select Peacock TV and hit Download
  4. Open the app and sign in or subscribe

You can also install Peacock remotely from Amazon’s website. Go to amazon.com/appstore, search for Peacock, and send it to your Fire TV device.

Alexa Integration

Fire TV’s Alexa voice remote is genuinely useful during the Olympics:

  • “Alexa, open Peacock” — launches the app
  • “Alexa, tune to NBC” — if you have a live TV app (YouTube TV, Hulu + Live TV) set as your default
  • “Alexa, what’s the Olympic schedule?” — pulls up a quick answer card

Other Useful Apps

Download the NBC Sports app for authenticated cable streams and the YouTube TV or Hulu app if you subscribe to a live TV service. All are available in the Amazon Appstore.

Fire TV Stick vs. Fire TV Cube

Both work fine for Olympics streaming. The Cube is faster — its hexa-core processor handles Peacock’s multi-view feature more smoothly. If you’re on a basic Fire TV Stick (non-4K), expect slower menu navigation in the Peacock app during peak hours.

Troubleshooting

  • App crashing: Go to Settings > Applications > Manage Installed Applications > Peacock > Clear Cache. Don’t clear data unless you want to re-enter your login.
  • Buffering: Test your connection at Settings > Network > Check Connection. You need at least 10 Mbps for reliable HD streaming, 25 Mbps for 4K.
  • Remote lag: Replace your remote batteries. Weak batteries cause delayed input that’s maddening during a tight hockey game.
