Delete or Uninstall Apps - Fire TV Low Storage
If you get a Fire TV error message "Critically Low on Storage" (see picture below), you need to uninstall some apps or at least clear cache. This is the local storage on your Fire TV Stick not your DVR... We suggest removing apps that are not needed, watch the video from the 2:45 mark to see how to easily uninstall apps. It's possible you, your spouse our your kids accidentally downloaded apps that were not needed, so we recommend you uninstall ones that you do not need to use. We do NOT recommend installing specific Channel apps. Remember whatever pay service you use (Sling TV, YouTube TV, etc.) has all of your local and cable channels live, on demand and DVR all in 1 spot for easier access. Do NOT go and download a bunch of other apps like ABC, Fox News, HGTV, etc as they will take up space on your Fire TV, make it more difficult and they are not needed.
To free up storage space on the Fire TV uninstall apps by doing the following. Settings-Applications-Managed Installed Apps-hit Center Select on the app you want to uninstall-Uninstall.
Sometimes you want to rearrange the apps, or delete an app you no longer want/use. Note that some apps are installed by Amazon, and cannot be uninstalled, but you can move them so you don't see them as readily on the home screen.
To delete or move an app:
- On the Fire TV Home Screen, go down to the Your Apps and Channels Row (NOT the Recent row).
- Highlight the App you want to delete and press the Options button (three horizontal lines) on the remote.
- Select Uninstall
- Note that some apps cannot be deleted as they are system apps. You can reorganize these apps so you don't see them in the row by selecting Move, instead of Uninstall.
You will have to repeat this process on each Fire TV.
