The problem mostly arises with 1st generation Firestick where you will not be able to connect even though you will have downloaded the NordVPN app properly.

If you do not know about the generation of your Fire TV Stick, just switch it on and go to Settings, then to System and finally About. This will tell you all the details about your device including its generation.

How to Use the NordVPN App on Firestick

NordVPN app functions exactly the same way as Android app does on a tablet or smartphone. Open the app and login to it. The Homepage has a map on the front with some pins that show you the approximate locations your NordVPN has got its range to.

If you want a server in a specific location, you can navigate the map and choose your desired location. Once you navigate to that, just click on the Connect button on the same page. In a few moments, you will be connected to the best server for that location.

At the bottom of this page, you will find a Quick Connect button. If you just want to connect to the VPN, click this button and after a few moments, you will get the best NordVPN according to your current location.
