This guide will teach you How to Update Stremio on Firestick, Fire TV, Android TV, and Google TV Boxes.
If you have used Stremio in the past, you are aware that this platform oftentimes pushes out updates to the application to improve performance and more.
Stremio 1.9.5 is the stable release and was made available in February, 2026.
Here are the previous release changelogs:
Stremio 1.9.4 Changelog
- Fixed disabling of subtitles not respected
- Fixed subtitles font size
- Fixed delays not being reset after changing tracks
- Fixed player type not being remembered
- Fixed images of catalogs not loading on old devices
- Fixed readability of tracks menus items
- Fixed incorrect time when opening in external player
Stremio 1.9.3 Changes
- Fix RTL (right-to-left) layout on player
- Fix typo on player error screen
- Fix incorrect background and logo on player loading screen
- Fix playback speed not applying correctly (or related playback controls)
- Other minor player UI/UX adjustments, including the back button overlay behavior mentioned above
This version follows quickly after 1.9.0 and 1.9.1/1.9.2:
- 1.9.1 had more substantial player updates (updated UI/UX, clock display, subtitle language filtering, etc.).
- 1.9.2 fixed poster focus issues.
- 1.9.3 appears focused on polishing the new player introduced around 1.9.0, addressing bugs and regressions (e.g., some users reported new crashing issues or Trakt sync offsets introduced in this series, but those are bugs rather than intended changes).
We always recommend using the most recent “stable” release of Stremio and this guide will show you how to get it on your favorite device.
The best way to do this is with the TROYPOINT Toolbox via the Downloader App since Stremio is not available in all device app stores.
Even though Stremio is available in the Google Play Store, (and now Amazon App Store), updates are often delayed. If you want instant access to the latest version, you can manually install it using our guide below.
When you follow this process, your addons and configurations will stay the same so you don’t have to worry about reinstalling/adding anything once you update!
We provide a video guide as well as a screenshot guide but always recommend watching the video to ensure you don’t miss any important steps.
You can follow along on any streaming box and this includes the Amazon Firestick, Fire TV, and ever popular Google TV/Android TV Boxes.
