Finding my smart remotes just sits on the base as there is no point if I’m still having to use my fire stick remote. My tv has standby mode so I mainly needed a fire stick remote that worked with my other smart devises, nest, hue, Bose SoundTouch. So far disappointed in the uses, need to update soon.

I have Fire TV in my living room and Fire TV sticks in two other rooms, and I agree that not supporting this is a deal-breaker. For me, same goes for IFTTT (my automation hub), since I don't see things like Z-Wave or Insteon supported on their own. Without Fire TV and IFTTT, my smart remote has been sitting on the charging base pretty much unused.

I’m very happy it’s finally compatible with my firestick. I just wish it wouldn’t put up a message or disconnect when it went to sleep. I wish it would just stay connected. It causes a delay that makes it ALMOST too slow to use versus the standard remote. That said, this remote is far superior for the simple fact it can be used as a keyboard.
Tl;dr - Works great with room to improve.
