All 182 Amazon Fire TV Screensaver Photos (High Resolution) January 18, 2020 June 25, 2019 by Robson Grant If you’re like me and are delighted every time your Amazon Fire TV screensaver comes on, you might want to know where are the locations of all those beautiful photos. The Fire Stick has a handful of default options that you can use for your screensaver, but you may have noticed that there is an option to use your photos. Fortunately this is achievable thanks to Amazon Photos. Step 2, Change the Fire TV Stick’s Screensaver. Next, issue a command to change the Fire TV’s default screensaver to one of my folio apps. The command will be different depending on the app you have. While the commands may word wrap in your browser, they should all be entered on a single line with no line breaks. This has worked so far. Trying to turn tv into photo wall using Amazon photos and Firestick screensaver. It looks really nice until the Firestick goes to sleep. Silly, but I guess developers didn’t think of this use of a screensaver. Maybe future iterations will have a sleep off function. Good easy video, good easy work around.

The very first screensavers were designed to protect computer monitors from having the same image displayed for so long that it burned a permanent ghost image on the Cathode Ray Tube. What began as a functional solution quickly became a fun way to express your creativity.

If you own the easy to use Amazon Fire TV, leaving the menu screen idle for too long still launches a screensaver. The Fire TV automatically launches a series of scenic photos which is admittedly more attractive than staring at a static menu.
