So I’ve got this Amazon fire stick and it’s got a few things about it that I don’t like and maybe you guys know a way to fix it.
So first issue is that if I’m watching certain video apps like YouTube, Twitch, Disney+ and stuff and then I switch input on my TV to flip over to my PS4 or Switch, when I flip back the app has bugged out and stopped instead of continuing to play. Now this doesn’t happen on every app. My VidGo or Sling would continue showing programming just fine, but certain ones flip out. Can it be fixed?
Another issue I’m having is that sometimes video apps like YouTube and Twitch will just stop working and I can’t force close the app. Like if I exit, it just like moves it to the background instead of force closing it. I have to restart the Fire stick completely to get it unstuck.
My final problem, and I suspect this is the YouTube app rather the the Fire stick, but if you leave the video paused for like 5 minutes it turns on this screensaver and when you click back on you are forced to watch another ad. Really annoying because a lot of times I will start a video and get through the ad and pause it, then do a quick errand around the house and come back and now I gotta watch another ad ya know? Lame.
Any ideas?
