Manage Apps
If you stop an app and return to the Home menu, the
app is not really stopped. The app is still running in
the background to be readily available when you start
it again. To run fluidly, most apps need to save some
data in the cache memory of the TV. It is good to stop
an app completely or clear the cache data of a
particular app to optimize the overall performance of
apps and to keep memory usage low on your Android
TV. Also, it is best to uninstall apps that you do not
use anymore.

USB Hard Drive
If you connect a USB Hard Drive, you can use the
drive to extend the TV memory to store more apps.
You can allow the USB Hard Drive to be used as an
additional TV memory during the formatting process.
The TV will try to store new apps on the USB Hard
Drive first. Some apps are not allowed to be stored on
a USB Hard Drive.
