In this Thunder TV IPTV review, I will show you how to use the service on FireStick and discuss its distinguishing features, plans and pricing, and subscription process. The steps outlined here apply to all Fire TV devices, including the FireStick 3rd Generation, FireStick Lite, New FireStick 4K, New FireStick 4k Max, and Fire TV Cube.
What Is Thunder TV?
Thunder TV is a third-party IPTV service that offers over 22,000 live TV channels and VOD content. The live TV library spans various niches like entertainment, news, kids, travel, sports, and lifestyle.
Thunder TV is a cheaper alternative to cable television. It offers hundreds of local and international TV channels, including reality TV, cooking programs, lifestyle networks, sports, and news channels.
Thunder TV offers most of the features you’d expect from an IPTV, including an EPG guide, search function, multi-screen, and catch-up TV. It is also compatible with most home devices, including the FireStick, Android TV, Roku, and Chromecast.
The IPTV service lacks a standalone up. Instead, it relies on third-party IPTV players to deliver content. It supports popular IPTV players like Tivimate and IPTV Smarters Pro.
Attention: Read before you continue
Governments and ISPs worldwide monitor their users’ online activities. If you are found streaming copyrighted content on your device, you could get into serious trouble. Currently, your IP is visible to everyone. I strongly recommend you get a good VPN and hide your identity so your movie viewing experience doesn’t take a bad turn.
I use ExpressVPN, which is the fastest and most secure VPN for IPTV. It is very easy to install on any device, including Amazon Fire TV Stick. Also, it comes with a 30-day money-back guarantee. If you don’t like their service, you can always ask for a refund. ExpressVPN also has a special deal where you can get 3 months free and save 49% on an annual plan.

Is Thunder TV Safe & Legal?
Third-party IPTV services like Thunder TV raise safety and legal concerns for various reasons. Some third-party services contain malicious files and viruses that can harm your devices and corrupt your data.
I scanned the Thunder TV official website on VirusTotal to check for suspicious files. None of the 88 security vendors flagged the site as malicious or containing suspicious files. See the screenshot below:
One factor that makes Thunder TV popular is its cheap plans compared to cable TV or official IPTV services like YouTube TV. However, the same aspect raises legal concerns. FireStickTricks.com can’t determine if the provider has obtained the rights to stream the content from the owners.
Streaming pirated content knowingly or unknowingly can put you in legal trouble.
We don’t condone streaming pirated content. However, to be safe, always use a reliable VPN when using unofficial services like Thunder TV. The VPN encrypts your data and hides your online activity from third parties. I use and recommend ExpressVPN.
