Amazon Fire TV Web App Sort Enhancer

WHAT IT DOES

Amazon Fire TV Web App Sort Enhancer reads app and game listings from Amazon Fire TV appstore pages and displays enhanced sorting and filtering options. The extension adds sorting by rating, price, and file size, and filtering by Free Only or Paid Only. Each app displays its name, rating, price, file size, and category. A summary shows the total number of apps, unique categories, and average rating. A favorites system lets you star apps for quick access, and a details toggle controls the visibility of additional app information. The panel shows all apps in a clean, organized list with quick navigation to app detail pages.

WHERE IT RUNS

This extension works on Amazon Fire TV appstore pages at amazon.com, specifically on the firetv and appstore paths. It runs on the Fire TV app listing page, the appstore category pages, and any page showing app/game listings. The extension operates entirely within your browser and does not access Amazon's servers directly—it reads only what is visible on the page you are viewing. It works alongside the free BotGentz extension, which provides the necessary scripting environment.

HOW TO USE

Install the extension, then navigate to amazon.com/firetv or amazon.com/appstore. The extension automatically scans the page and displays an organized app list in the panel. Click the extension's icon in your browser toolbar to open the panel. Use the sort dropdown to sort by Rating, Price, or File Size. Use the filter dropdown to show All Apps, Free Only, or Paid Only. The "Show app details" toggle controls whether additional details (price, file size, category) appear. Click any app row to open its details in a new tab. Click the star icon to add or remove an app from favorites. The "Refresh" button manually updates the panel with the latest app information.

APP EXTRACTION WITH MULTI-ATTRIBUTE PARSING AND SESSION PERSISTENCE

Unlike simple app listers, this extension uses a multi-selector extraction engine to find app information from Amazon's varying page structures. It searches for apps using multiple selector patterns (.app-item, .app-card, .app-tile) and falls back to text parsing. For each app, it extracts the name, rating (parsed from rating elements), price (parsed from price elements with free detection), file size (parsed with MB/GB conversion), and category. The sorting engine supports three sort modes—rating (highest first), price (lowest first), and file size (largest first). The filtering engine supports two filter modes—free only and paid only. All sort and filter preferences are persisted per session using GM_setValue. The extension also persists favorite apps as an array of app IDs for quick lookup.

THE PANEL

The panel supports drag-to-move anywhere on the page. It remembers its position per site, so it stays where you placed it on amazon.com. Click the panel header to collapse it down to just the minimized bubble, or click the expand handle to show the full panel. The panel can be resized by dragging the bottom-right corner. Press the Escape key to close the expanded panel and return to the minimized state. All panel settings, including position, size, collapsed state, sort preference, filter preference, details visibility, and favorites, are saved per site and persist across browsing sessions.

PLEASE NOTE

This extension requires the free BotGentz extension to be installed and active, as it provides the underlying DOM injection and script execution environment. Amazon's website changes periodically, and app element structures, class names, and page layouts may be updated. When that happens, the extension may stop detecting apps until an update is released. The extension stores your sort preference, filter preference, details visibility, and favorites locally in your browser's storage using GM_setValue. The app list is based on apps visible on the page—the extension does not access Amazon's internal app database. No data is ever sent to any server, and no personal information is collected. You can clear all stored settings at any time by clearing your browser data for amazon.com.
