I can't thank you enough. I had a stroke about 4 years ago. I was pretty decent at electronics. Since the stroke electronics go way over my head. Your videos have made my firestick so much better.

[@izavalasoficial]

Born in the 60’s I used to laughed of electronics instructions in the 80’s , 40 years later I am paying attention to your videos.

[@bradfordpaige2090]

I can’t thank you enough. I’m new to the firestick and streaming in general. I just cleared by background apps and turned off the stuff in featured content. AWESOME. My speed has always been good and my firestick tv has always been in the same room as my router so no issues there. My buffering has never been a huge problem but like everyone else i don’t want it to happen EVER. I noticed a small amount of buffering today and came upon your video. i’m gonna start my movie and again and see if there’s a difference. Even if there isn’t I’m glad that I know about these features. Thank you again for sharing the knowledge and presenting it in a way that even the technically challenged can understand. Kudos!!!

[@Walt.2013]

We are a 'low tech' household but your teaching technique is very clear and comprehensible! We don't have buffering problems but I like knowing how to troubleshoot should the need arise. Only had 3 apps running in the background, mostly because we mainly watch 2 apps, PBS and KZbin. HULU was also listed and I force stopped it. Thanks for great instruction and helping others!

[@bonitaholder6149]

While watching this video to see why streaming on my stick did so much buffering, I downloaded the background apps and processes Android app for my phone. I found 76 apps open in the background! No wonder my phone has been running slowly. As for the stick, there were only 13 apps running, so I've concluded that it's the source. Thanks for the video; it was double help for me!

[@jeanjennings5712]

Great information. I just did it! Surprised, I only had 13 apps running. You are the best and most easy to understand tutor for the firestick. I've learned so much from you. THANKS!

[@Bobmartiz1]

You're doing everything right! I subscribed to your channel 2-3 yrs ago and I have kept my Firestick in proper operating condition ever since. I check background apps every week or so and the speed test less so. The last time I checked I had 7 apps running in the background. I have an old Firestick so I probably won't get the new interface but I'm used to what I have, so I'm good.

[@user-uw5ty8wh4q]

I appreciate your continued support and assistance, you are very knowledgeable and speak in plain language. You assist in making my firestick experience steady, thank you

[@janetkurasz3953]

Ty for explaining things in terms an average person can understand. I've watched a few of your videos and learned alot. Sincere thanks I'm excited to share them to help others l8kr like myself

[@brendafraser4823]

I had 20 apps open in the background! Took awhile to close them all. Thanks so much!

[@robertcarvalho2882]

Thanks a lot you did educate me. I am located in the Caribbean and appreciate your well informed video. My Fire Stick is no longer sluggish. You the man Big Bigup. Thanks Again.

[@billherbst4386]

Thank you very much. My firestick wouldn't run at all. Just constant buffering. Followed your steps and now it works. I really appreciate your help. .

[@randybenson8645]

Something else that helps, while you are force stopping your running apps, also clear your cache. I find that this also helps increase your speed.

[@bohemio3952]

I am a new user. This my first time using the Amazon stick. This information is very useful. Learning the most important things might probably take time, but everything is a learning process. Thanks a lot for taking your time to do this educational video.

[@kennygunn43]

Your videos are always very easy to understand. Thank you so much for helping with my buffering problem. You rock!!!

[@axelramis4252]

Thanks to you I only have 2 apps running. My ExpressVPN and what ever app I am using. Also I purchased 2 rockspace 1200 wifi extenders. That has helped me so much. Thinking of hardwireing very soon. Thanks for everything Mr. C YOU ROCK!!!

[@danaj9336]

I live in Central America, and right now, 10 mbps is pretty much what I have, altho they are soon to be running fiber optic here. After running speed test, I find that if I choose links that are 1080p & 10mbits or less, I have no problems with buffering. Sometimes I can stream larger links, but generally keep it to that limit and its good. Am running Syncler and Cinema on the Firestick.

[@GralinDunn]

Wow I had 20 apps in the background appreciate your help

[@ayodeleapata6174]

In addition to doing just a "force stop," I usually clear cache first before doing the force stop and this works very well. Thanks for the video.

[@CuriosityCafe]

You certainly can to free up space. But that doesn't help buffering (which is what the video is about). But certainly should be done regularly.

[@ayodeleapata6174]

@@CuriosityCafe Right. I agree 100% with you.

[@sandragrowe3554]

I’m good. I learned this from you a long time ago.

[@marleen6256]

[@frederikkalsbeek3147]

Wow, this video led me directly into fixing my problem, thank you!

[@panther7603]

Great program sir. Thanks!

[@ronnydee2]

I fixed my buffering by running a cable from my modem to my fire stick, over the roof down the wall. It was quit a chore but well worth the trouble.

[@streamguyentertainment]

I always look forward to new ways to stop buffering on my firestick. Thanks for sharing

[@mrjfrostbite]

Display settings on the fire stick may also be the issue. The KZbin app on the fire stick is especially finicky if your display settings are too high which they normally are by default. Anything over 24 hertz will generally cause buffering on that and a few other apps. Out the box the settings are on 60 hertz.

[@gr8ride411]

Thank you! Great points to check.👍🏽
