You may sometimes see your firestick slow down when you are navigating between applications or when watching IPTV streams which can be frustrating but this is highly likely because you have many opened apps in the background.
Make sure you are using the Best IPTV Service for your Amazon firestick
This can cause the firestick to act sluggish due to most of the Firestick’s small RAM being taken up so it’s always best to close apps you are not using so this, how to use a task killer on a firestick will certainly help you do this.
Why Use A Task Killer On A Firestick
Again echoing what we said before that apps that have been open can use some of the RAM up on the firestick and with many applications open in the background this can make your firestick run slow.
It’s the equivalent of having many Android apps or iPhone apps open on your smartphone you may notice sometimes the device starts to slow down and freeze when using applications.
A big issue with the firesticks is the latest FireOS (firesticks operating system) does not shut the apps down like the older FireOS did once you exit the app. This can help you go into an app you were just in and pick up from where you left off but this, of course, comes at a cost of using memory (RAM).
