Fire tv app download stuck

If simply restarting the Fire TV does not help with the issue, you might want to perform a factory reset. However, this will delete your account information and all the content you have downloaded since you got the Fire TV. This is quite simple. You might also find that the download for the latest update does not finish. It can reach a certain point and not go any further for days. This could be a glitch or from overheating, as mentioned above, but the best thing to do is to restart your Fire TV cube.

It may also be that you have run out of space halfway through the download. The Fire TV will usually be able to detect if there is not enough space before the download, but refer to the information earlier in this article to double-check your storage space. This issue seems to be relatively common and could be related to any of the issues discussed above. Most likely, this is a bug that will need to be fixed by Amazon.

The best thing to try is restarting the Fire TV or doing a factory reset. The Fire TV Cube will automatically check for updates every time it starts up. If there is a new update, it will download the update for you. You can then confirm that you want to install the update. Note that you will need to restart the Fire TV to finalise the update. If you still want to use the device, the update will simply be installed when you are no longer using it.

If your device has not downloaded the latest update, you can force it to do so by finding the system settings. These are found following the steps below. Apps on your Fire TV Cube can also be updated either automatically or manually. To disable the automatic updates, follow the steps below.

It is without a doubt better to accept both options and move on.
