Uk turks finished over a year ago its no longer available. Shame it was handy for older films and series.
Stopped using it when the original dev team gave up on it.

There is no Version of UK Turks that does not get instantly Flagged and Blocked by Amazon even that version you uploaded !!
unless obviously is used as a Kodi Addon .
Whatever team that pushed out the 1.16 UK Turks update obviously still clueless on howto bypass these new Amazon Blockages and warnings .
only an older modded version of Rapidstreamz still works without being flagged , Cinema HQ is another that is instantly Blocked by Amazon too 👎
FlixVISION modded version was found and it has bypassed Amazon Blocking and works for now .

Matter of time IMHO until we see Amazon Firesticks start being flogged everywhere , and will be for a whole lot less than what we ever will expect
even on social media i see them starting to begin to be offloaded for cheap....
Amazon are fast on a suicide mission with blocking these 3rd party apps and invading peeps privacy dictating exactly what can/can not be installed on a device .
Amazon just are not able to boast about having a device that has 32GB ...... with Zero 3rd Party Blocking , that is what everyone will be all to happy to purchase these days , lot of these Android devices can do that and are faster than any fire stick too as it offers future proof Android 14 and better support unlike Amazon that clearly has peaked over a year ago and headed for certain and instant decline with their utterly $hitty Vega OS locked down garbage devices . !!

Yes that's why I advise using true android tv OS which is on alot of devices now.
Just buy an Android device that you and only you are in control of.

Amazon have nothing to gain by someone buying their devices and not using their subscription services.
If they did they wouldn’t be changing the OS to closed off one.
Retail, third party sellers ,AWS and advertising is where they make most of their money.
Subscription services come last…

I agree
The FS is just a generic device for people to start with and use. It’ll just be a matter of time before people shift. It’s what the vast majority have done already!
