How to set sleep timer to auto turn off Amazon Fire TV? In this guide, I show you how to set a sleep timer to automatically turn off your Amazon Fire TV.

Amazon Fire TV doesn't have a built-in sleep timer feature like traditional TVs, but you can use workarounds to set it to turn off automatically. Here are several methods:

1. Enable Display Settings Sleep Mode
Amazon Fire TV devices include a sleep mode for power saving.

Steps:
Go to Settings on your Fire TV.
Select Display & Sounds.

Choose Screensaver or Display Settings.
Set the Start Time (e.g., 5 minutes, 10 minutes, etc.) for the screen to go idle.
Once idle, the Fire TV will enter sleep mode automatically.

2. Use Alexa Voice Commands
If you have an Alexa-enabled device (such as an Echo or the Alexa app on your phone), you can set a sleep timer.

Command Example:
Say: “Alexa, turn off Fire TV in [time] minutes.”
Alexa will turn off your Fire TV after the specified time.

3. Turn Off Using the Fire TV App
You can also use the Fire TV app on your phone to manually power down the device after a set time.

4. Use a TV Sleep Timer
If your TV has a built-in sleep timer:

Access your TV's settings.
Set a sleep timer for the TV to turn off after a specific duration.
The Fire TV will also power down when the TV turns off.

5. Use Smart Plugs with Scheduling
If you’re using a smart plug to power your Fire TV:

Open the companion app for your smart plug (e.g., Alexa, Google Home).
Set a timer or schedule to automatically turn off the plug at a specific time.
6. Set Auto Power Off with CEC Settings
Ensure HDMI-CEC is enabled on your TV and Fire TV:

Go to Settings - Display & Sounds - HDMI CEC Device Control.
Turn CEC Device Control on.

If your TV turns off (using a TV sleep timer), the Fire TV will also shut down.
