When you use regular Android Emulator it's not acting as real firestick device. You will get some new issues with your app when running on Fire OS. So better to use real device and connect that through adb.

Yes, you can create an Android TV emulator and run your app inside it. Follow these steps here: https://developer.amazon.com/docs/fire-app-builder/use-an-android-tv-emulator.html

See this post on the Amazon Developer docs for some pointers on how to get it working in the emulator. There are some limitations, and from experience I'd probably recommend getting one to work with if you're going to be doing much work with it
