FAQ
Yes. The Bitdefender VPN offers a 30-day free trial that allows you to use the VPN service for free on your device.
This is mostly due to the usage of the outdated firmware version of your device. So, update the firmware of the Firestick to the latest version to use the Bitdefender VPN problem-free.
If the sideloading process does not suit you better, you can opt for direct installation of VPN apps like ExpressVPN, IPVanish, or NordVPN on your Firestick.
