I downloaded the app for my Firestick and opened youtube. Now I can't figure out how to get back the the Firefox homepage. Pressing the back button does not work. When I close the app, it opens to the youtube homepage. Am I missing an obvious button somewhere?

Hi

I have tried this myself and have found a solution for you.

When you are in Youtube, press the three lines "hamburger" button on the Fire TV remote. This should display the Firefox for Fire TV menu allowing you to choose to go to a different web address, to go back the Firefox for Fire TV home page or to access the Firefox for Fire TV settings.

The attached picture is what you should see and was taken from my Firefox for Fire TV a short time ago.

I hope that this helps, but if not, please come back here and we can look into a different solution for you.
