The new Fire TV Stick remote looks similar to the previous model in terms of design. But this time Amazon has added coloured buttons representing the different apps and features. Replacing the microphone button is the Alexa button which is in the app's blue colour. Down below you'll see four buttons for Amazon Prime Video, Netflix, Amazon Music and apps. This is for the Indian version of the Fire TV Stick remote.

In other markets like the US, the new Fire TV Stick remote has dedicated buttons for Disney+ and Hulu. Disney+ is available as Disney+ Hotstar in India, while Hulu hasn't been launched here. In Australia, the apps button is replaced with Disney+ while Amazon Music stays the same.
