Mouse Toggle for Fire TV – How to Install for Better Navigation (2022)
The following tutorial will show you how to install Mouse Toggle for Fire TV, Firestick, Android, and more.
Mouse Toggle is an easy-to-use application that works as a Mouse to navigate apps that aren’t compatible with the Fire TV Interface.
If you sideload applications onto your Firestick or Fire TV device, you have probably noticed that some of them don’t work well with the remote control.
The reason for this problem is that most Android apps aren’t developed for television.
They are meant to be used on a phone or tablet where the user is using their finger to navigate instead of a remote.
After installing Mouse Toggle on your preferred device, you can use the tool to navigate apps such as Aurora Store and other Streaming Apps.
Once you double-click the play/pause button on your Firestick Remote, a mouse pointer will appear on the screen.
You can then use that pointer to click various items within the applications that you are using.
For these reasons and more, we have included Mouse Toggle in our list of Best Firestick Apps.
The guide below will show you How to Install Mouse Toggle on a Fire TV Stick Lite.
However, these steps will also work for any variation of Fire TV including Firestick 4K and Fire TV Cube.
Those using Android devices such as NVIDIA SHIELD, MECOOL, or Chromecast with Google TV can install Mouse Toggle using the guide below.

Warning! Protect Yourself With IPVanish VPN
Most cord-cutters use a IPVanish VPN and rightfully so.
The free streaming applications, addons, and IPTV services that you use are usually hosted on insecure servers.
Without a IPVanish, your IP Address is being logged.
Your IP Address points back to your location and identity which compromises both your privacy and security.
Your current identifying IP Address is 91.246.58.137
When you use IPVanish, your real IP address will be converted into an anonymous new one.
IPVanish VPN will provide you with an anonymous connection to the Internet.
This will prevent your Internet Service Provider, app/addon developers, government agencies, and any 3rd party from logging what you’re accessing online.
The most popular VPN among cord-cutters is IPVanish due to their blazing fast speeds and zero log policy.
It’s important to use a VPN that is fast since we are streaming large HD files. Its also crucial to find one that keeps no logs of what their subscribers access while online.
Setting up IPVanish VPN on your streaming device is simple!
