Fixing ITVX Not Working On Amazon Fire TV Stick

Before trying the technical fixes to resolve ITVX issues on the Firestick, perform these simple troubleshooting steps.

Connect Or Refresh Your VPN Connection

ITVX only works in the UK; therefore, if you are using it outside the UK, ensure you are connected to a VPN. If you are already using a VPN and still unable to stream ITVX service, try turning the VPN off and on a few times to see if the situation changes.

• Select “Applications.”
• Choose “ITVX” from the app list.
• Look for the “Permissions” section on the list of options.
• On Storage, click on Allow.

Another step you can take is to check the IPTVX server on the downdetector. It is the platform that monitors the status of various online services and platforms.
