Is AstonCine Safe?
The unavailability of AstonCine on the Amazon App Store makes it a tough call for people cautious about their safety. I didn’t find anything fishy going on with AstonCine. The app only asked for access to my videos and photos to save movies/TV shows I’ll download using it.
As AstonCine is a creation of unknown developers, one can’t be 100% sure about its safety. But I ran a virus check on the APK file of AstonCine. To my surprise, it cleared all the tests – here’s the proof:
Is AstonCine Legal?
At FireStickHow.com, we lack the proper resources to determine the legality status of AstonCine – here’s why:
AstonCine is an app that scrapes the free streaming links of your favorite TV shows and movies – that’s completely okay. But the authenticity and legality of those freely available links are doubtful.
We are FireStick experts, not a team of professional security analysts. So, we can’t test the legitimacy of links scrapped via AstonCine.
Well, there’s a way out to keep your data safe and identity safe when using AstonCine. Use a VPN like ExpressVPN when watching TV shows and movies via the app.

How to Install AstonCine on FireStick
Installing AstonCine on FireStick isn’t similar to installing an official app on Amazon App Store.
The two sub-sections will show you how to set up your FireStick to sideload AstonCine and the step-by-step instructions to install it.
Set Up FireStick for Sideloading AstonCine
