Just an update for anyone having this issue. I used a 3.0 128gb flash drive for external storage, and it fixed the problem. No need to restore to factory 😁 just needs to be 3.0, and no bigger than 128gb flash drive.
@ern m yes, but when I plugged it into the tv, I just had to go to settings, storage, then select format and it automatically did it for me. Everything works fine now
What if the pop-up keeps popping up every second you can't do anything you can't get to settings or anything that's my issue everytime I try to press the home button to go to to factory reset the firestick I can't even make it it's just that critically low on storage thing keeps popping up on the screen
I had a storage device connected to my firestick USB which was a SanDisk USB I just had to disconnect all of that for my firestick throw it all away and factory reset the fire-stick USB and that worked now it's working properly like it was when it was brand new
Wish I would've watched this earlier. Our Wifi has been buggy lately and this is exaclty what happened to me. Spent an hour deleting crap and trying to figure out why my storage was pretty much full. We don't have a crazy amount of apps, maybe 8 to 10.
Very helpful vid though. My brother us having this problem with his insignia fire tv, but I'm thinking he can just add a USB drive 3.0 128 gb max to fix it. Would that not work? Oh, and I did subscribe 😁
Hi good videos, any chance you could do a video on tivimate on how to record to a usb , tried everything but tivimate won’t let you select the path to the usb , any help would be great. Thanks
Hi Malc. ill have to purchase the adaptors and get back to you. or i can see if i can find a video of someone that has already done it. ill be in touch
Yes! you will have to reinstall tivimate and unlock premium again. you wont have to pay for another subscription of tivimate, just put in your credentials again. thanks
I don't understand why Amazon doesn't add a cleaning function like android boxes have because alot of these side loaded cleaning applications that used to work no longer do since fire os 7 they don't want people using them yet they don't build one into the operating system why idk SD maid still works but not much else
I 100% AGREE!! sad part is that Amazon customer support 1st thing to have people do is always a factory reset. they never take the time to troubleshoot and try to save people the time to not have to redownload and login to all their apps again. not everything requires a factory reset. but for this video, Unfortuanly its the only option. thanks
Critically low storage your device is out of internal storage space downloads are blocked and performance may be severely affected while storage remains low please tap manage storage to view options for freeing up space including 1-tap archive
@@DFMTV4U what is the best way to move apps to external storage (flash drive) on a smart Fire TV. It seems to be a little different than a regular Fire device. Does that help?
lol, i don't quite understand your question?? but if you have a better way to do it and will make a new video and feature you in it. love to hear your feedback. thanks

I appreciate the video. However that did not address my concerns. Keep up the good work.
