Joining work meetings or remote holidays together from the comfort of your couch has never been simpler. Fire TV customers in the U.S. and Canada can now use Zoom on their Fire TV Omni Series. Zoom Meetings can now be started and joined from your home’s largest screen.
How to get Zoom app on Fire TV Omni Series
All you need is a Fire TV Omni Series (or Fire TV QLED Omni Series) of any size and follow these quick and easy steps:
- First thing first, get a compatible webcam — one that is 720–1080p. We suggest the Logitech C920, C922x or C310. (Tip: Zoom recommends a 1080p resolution with a 60–90 degree field of view from 6–10 feet away from the TV.)
- Plug the webcam directly into the TV USB port. We suggest placing the webcam above the TV for the best viewing angle.
- Download the Zoom app from the Fire TV Appstore or simply ask, “Alexa, find Zoom.”
- Once you’re logged into Zoom or accessing as a guest, join a meeting using your remote, or say, “Alexa, join my Zoom meeting.” (Tip: The TV microphone will need to be turned on. Also, the Zoom app will only use audio from your TV speakers — you aren’t able to pair it with a soundbar/speakers at this time.
