In order to get started with SoundOnFire on your FireTV, you need to do the following:

• Download the latest Release from one of those:
  • GitHub
  • Microsoft App-Center
• Install the .apk on your FireTV
  • (easiest) install Downloader by AFTVnews on your FireTV, open it and enter tinyurl.com/sof-release, then read, understand and confirm the security prompts. (You can also enter 40787, but this requires an extra step to install the AFTVnews Downloader browser addon if you haven't already.)
  • with your Android Smartphone using this App
  • with your computer or another FireTV App read here
• Once the SoundOnFire App has been installed on your FireTV, a small modal will pop up on the bottom right of your screen. Otherwhise you will find the App under: Home > Your Apps > All Apps > SoundOnFire

On every App start, it will automatically check for new releases of SoundOnFire. In case of a new version being available, it will open a modal like the following. You will then have three option: Don't show again, Dismiss or Update (recommended)

This is currently the roadmap, please feel free to request additions/changes.

The main idea with this is to simply use your smartphone as a remote control for using SoundOnFire. The first draft of the this will focus on using it as a keyboard such that you could search for tracks using your smartphone keyboard.
