Help with fire stick

by Sunny19843

Hi all I’m looking for help with my fire stick, it lags a lot when opening my iptv app, also when opening stbemu. They are the only apps I have plus tunein.

I’ve tried deleting data and cache but that only works for a little bit. I know it has about 1gb ram which could be the reason is there a way to boost the fire stick, or would I be better purchasing a higher spec device. I like the portability of fire stick so I can watch upstairs or down, is there any similar device but higher spec? I’m trying to avoid roku and mag boxes.. Any help and advice is greatly appreciated

Update: I ordered my shield coming tomorrow at some point, thanks to the great advice friends. I guess I should have looked at the shield sooner.

Update 2 : got the shield and so far I am very impressed the Indian channels I had trouble with on the Firestick load up instantly on here. Just for info the provider I use is entvpremium, they have the sky Q type app which is perfect for my needs.

If you just watch IPTV shield is overkill.

Shields are great for what you need, currently. I have 2 shields strictly for streaming and iptv. As for overkill, which I hear all the time. The Shield may be overkill for what you need....today. What about farther down the road.

You bought a fire stick, decent device, now your needing a more updated, powerful one later you may have to do the same again. Not saying you will, just you may have to.

My 2 Shields are 2 years old and I still haven’t found anything I couldn’t run that I needed. They still have great support and updated regularly. When I bought mine I didn’t look at it as overkill, I looked at it as buying once and being done.
