STOP CLEARING CACHE ON FIRESTICK to make it FASTER!

We are always trying to make our firestick faster and supercharge the fire tv, But clearing the cache can actually slow down the apps.

With all due respect Doc, I'm pretty sure you've made a video in the past suggesting we clear the cache regularly for a smoother experience.
Problem is, I've been a subscriber for a long time and tried to find the video but got tired looking. I
I don't' subscribe to any other youtubers on firestick issues so I cant blame anyone else lol. This is not a moan but thought it worth mentioning and you can perhaps clarify.
Cheers and thanks for the good content.

I don’t clear the cache to make it faster, I do it to get back some storage space (as little as it may be).

Thanks for clearing things up. A lot of people get confused on this. Thanks for sharing. Keep the content coming. Enjoy your night. Cheers

I believe this is the first video in a long time that your title /context is 100% correct (no disrespect). On firesticks in particular, clearing the cache does not speed up the stick. Yes, you will free ram, (as you'll see in the background app) but it will be used right back up when launching that app again or any other. It is better to let them "timeout" in the background, like other OS, s, this little stick is optimized well for what it does and the allocation of its resources, with the exception of a few tools by a few devs that do a great job with animation speeds and debloating, however it really only applies on the older OS's, not the newer. I created some debugging software and a lightweight apk like what maybe MSI afterburner would do as a basic example, and this is very accurate. Facts. I like this alot doc, keep with this format. Great work!

Must admit I have been clearing the cache every time I closed an app using the Background Process app so this has enlightened me, thanks Doc

[pauleltringham]

I have always just force stopped and cleared cache from app I've just used. Two seconds and never ever have i had an issue with any app and i have a lot. Runs smoothly and quickly

The reason behind clear cache is to lesson Buffering from the links you click. It only takes a few seconds to do. I never experienced it in the way of slowing apps or anything for that matter.

Background Apps and Processes is a must have for all firestick/TV users. Force stop is a function that really helps on any apps you may have problems with. Background Apps and Processes helps to zero in on those apps still running in the background so you don't have to go into every app on you device to force stop.

you are right. cache cleaning is a nice hobby, nothing else!
If someone has problems with the storage capacity, nothing is easier than expanding the memory.

❤❤❤❤ I have always done this I’m still learning things about my fire stick great video and very helpful have a great weekend

It’s like those people who put hot, as opposed to cold, water in a kettle in the mistaken belief that it boils it quicker - spoiler alert: it doesn’t - also, cold water has things in it that usually makes it suitable for drinking - hot water from the tap doesn’t - you could clog it up with limescale!

Thanks Doc.
Speeding up my menu animation has made me happier than it probably should.
It's been a peeve of mine with my Firestick and Fire Cube.
Cheers 🍻

What does clearing cache do on Fire TV?

If you're experiencing issues with a Fire TV app such as crashing, not working, content not loading, lag, or slow speeds, clear the cache. When you download an app, it temporarily stores data on your device- cache. Issues occur when a cache becomes too big; clearing it improves performance.

Omg, background and process procedures sped up my firestick!! Thanks!!

[jiala]

When I go and try to download the app I keep getting a message saying "Error parching package"

[tabbycatman]

Do you think anyone can/will come up with an ADB Debugging app or whatever? Thanks for this tutorial very useful.

[Nnmtes]

But in the past you have preached clearing out the cache and everything else, to make your firestick run faster. Make up your mind

[johnneale]

Force closed 29 apps running in background, thanks doc.

I don't know what you're talkin about but I do know I've had about six different firestick I'm currently Now using the new 4k. And anytime I'm not getting links or is taking too long to load links everytime I go and clear my cache on a few apps. It definitely speeds up the process and multiple people I know have had the same problem and I told them to clear their cache and boom it starts working again

[TheKevindj]

The animation tduk speed doesn't work on my firestick. Is there another one to use
