- Amazon's Vega OS is being implemented on new Fire TV Sticks starting with the Fire TV Stick 4K Select from October.
- Vega OS does not support sideloading Android apps or software from outside the Amazon Appstore.
- Amazon's website for developers mentions this change, but the company hasn't explicitly informed consumers.
- Developers can still sideload apps on Vega devices if they register their devices.
- Amazon's Echo Show 5 and Echo Hub are also running on Vega OS.
