Our daily life has become a constant interaction with electronic and computer products of all kinds. The computer was the first, but the smartphone is the one that opened the door to accessories such as headphones and home automation, making almost all the devices in the house smart.
However, not everyone behaves the same way. For example, an Airfryer or vacuum cleaner should not get worse its operation over time, beyond any bad updates. But, in principle, it still works as it did when we first took it out of the box.
But there is other types of products that may experience slower operationas content downloading and app caching come into play. The best The example is the mobile phone, whose performance deteriorates because of the applications we installthe residue that sometimes leaves behind apps we’ve already deleted or the files that apps download to work.
This also happens on tablets or devices that allow us to return to our smart TV, such as the Amazon Fire TV Stick. These devices are nothing more than Android devices that have the particularity of not having a screen, since they use that of the TV, but they also use applications and can see their operation slowed down if we have many applications installed, if there are any services running. in the background or if the updates did not work as they should.
To try to resolve this problem, before moving to a more current model, It is better to try to format it and reset it to factory settings.. This will require us to reinstall the apps and enter our login details, username and password, in all streaming services and apps, but it will also delete residual files that were causing problems.
To format an Amazon Fire TV Stick, what we need to do is press and hold the system back button (the arrow button) and the right directional button for a few seconds. After a few moments, the screen will display a message inviting you to let’s confirm that we really want to format the device, as this is an irreversible process. If confirmed, the system will reboot and return to factory state for a few minutes. When we are done, we just have to do the setup process like the day we first installed it.
