Learned this frantically googling trying to figure out how to save date night when the only TV we had was an Amazon Fire one, in a new house without Internet.

Luckily, turns out you can just plug a keyboard into the USB port on the back and it just… works.

Everything actually behaves pretty much the way you expect it to, ESC returns, Enter is select, arrow keys, typing searches, etc

Not only is it a lifesaver in a very specific situation, but it’s actually the best way I’ve found to control one of these.
