How to Reset Fire Stick & Fire TV Amazon devices easily

The Amazon Fire Stick provides an easy and inexpensive way to stream live TV, movies, series and all kind of media. That is why I recommend it as one of the best TV Boxes that you can get. However, due to its limited memory storage, it may experience certain performance issues. That is mainly because is being loaded up with too many apps or downloads. This is a reason of why you might need to reset the Fire Stick to its factory defaults. To free up its memory and get it working like new again. This is a super easy process to do. Just follow the following tutorial on how to reset Fire Stick and Fire TV devices from Amazon.

Also if you need to sell your Amazon Fire Stick / Fire TV device it is highly recommended you reset your device. By resetting your Fire Stick device you will return to a Factory Defaults state. That means you will erase any personal data, app or information in general that you obviously do not want to pass to the next user of your device.
