Live NetTV v5.0Short answer: no. There is no official Sky Go app for the Fire TV Stick or Fire TV Cube. Sky Go is available on Amazon's Fire tablets, which is why it sometimes appears in Appstore searches, but not on Fire TV streaming devices. Copies of the app sideloaded from other sites are unofficial, often do not work, and may break Sky's terms.

Are Sky blocking Firesticks?
Sky and the Premier League pursue illegal IPTV services and “loaded” Firesticks that show Sky channels without permission, and UK buyers of those sticks have been warned of prosecution. An ordinary Firestick with official apps such as NOW is completely legal. See why to avoid fully loaded Firesticks.
Other UK TV apps on Firestick
Most UK broadcasters have official Fire TV apps: BBC iPlayer, ITVX, Channel 4 and NOW. Freely is not available on Fire TV Sticks; see Freely on Fire TV Stick. For a full setup, follow our free live TV on Firestick guide.
