How to identify Amazon Fire TV and Fire Stick in code level (HTML/JavaScript) ..?

I have developed a Fire TV application using HTML5 and JavaScript. Here I need to identify what is the currently accessing device. Either Amazon Fire TV or Amazon Fire Stick.

How can I do this using HTML/JavaScript..?

Thanks

  • You should be able to distinguish them by checking the user agent string which has the device model.

    android.os.Build.MODEL

    • AFTB (Fire TV Gen 1)
    • AFTS (Fire TV Gen 2)
    • AFTM (Fire TV Stick Gen 1)
    • AFTT (Fire TV Stick Gen 2)
