Amazon Fire TV Stick 4K Max (1st gen, 2021) debloat list

26 packages that owners have disabled on the Fire TV Stick 4K Max without breaking it, grouped by what they do. Copy the commands, run them over ADB, and undo any of them with one line.

Quick start: 3 steps

Connect. Settings → My Fire TV → About, press OK on the device name 7 times, then Developer Options → ADB debugging. Port 5555, accept the prompt on the TV. Then run adb connect <TV-IP>:5555.

Start with: Ads, sponsored rows, recommendations, promos, shopping. These are the biggest win and safe on this device:

adb shell pm disable-user --user 0 com.amazon.kso.blackbird
adb shell pm disable-user --user 0 com.amazon.sneakpeek
adb shell pm disable-user --user 0 com.amazon.hybridadidservice
adb shell pm disable-user --user 0 com.amazon.providers.contentsupport

Choose the rest. Pick packages in the command generator → or copy all 26 commands below.

Tested on: Fire OS 7.7.1.3 (Android 9), model AFTKA
List last checked: 2026-10-29
Stock home screen: com.amazon.tv.launcher (protected)
Connecting with ADB: Settings → My Fire TV → About, press OK on the device name 7 times, then Developer Options → ADB debugging. Port 5555, accept the prompt on the TV.

Read this first

Home cannot be replaced by disabling it: com.amazon.tv.launcher is a protected package. This list removes services, not the home screen.
Rebooted twice after applying on the tested stick: everything stayed disabled, and Home, Prime Video, Netflix and voice search worked.
With Alexa voice search kept, about 16 Alexa helper packages turn themselves back on at every boot, so they are not on the list.
The big hero banner and the Sponsored row come from the home screen's own feed, so no package removes them. Turn off Settings → Preferences → Privacy Settings and Featured Content autoplay, and use an ad-blocking DNS for part of the rest.
Never disable com.amazon.tv.oobe: it is needed for a factory reset, and on some models it owns your saved Wi-Fi network.
