MegaBox HD is a decent streaming application for enjoying tons of movies and TV Shows. This app has a large content library, which is updated frequently with lots of newly added movies and shows. The interface of this app is simple and easy-to-use. It categorizes its content according to genres with its Genre Filter tool.
MegaBox offers multiple streaming links of different resolutions up to 720p for any content. You can also download any content with MegaBox HD for offline streaming. But do remember to take your device memory space into consideration before downloading.
I am hoping they will soon add Real Debrid and Trakt linking features to improve the app further, which is missing as of now.

I post in-depth how-to guides for FireStick devices & Kodi in a way that is easy to understand for people of all ages. Thanks for stopping by!
When using MV Cast it plays great but the firestick has no control to pause or fastforward etc unless you tell me different. I have tried everything. Is there another version that will allow control. I saw a message that says a mouse is required. I tried mouse toggle but that doesn’t work either. Any ideas
Hi Joel! Yeah, there seems to be a problem, it’s probably because there’s a new update available for Megabox HD. I shall update the link as soon as I am able to find a working one. Please try other on-demand apps from our Best FireStick Apps list meanwhile
