Fire TV: Factory Reset your Device

Reset Fire TV Device to Factory Settings

A factory reset of your device removes all downloaded content including in-app purchases. You will need to reinstall the Digital Menus by Untappd app. 

1. Go to Settings on your Fire TV. You can find this at the top of your home screen. Scroll down to My Fire TV:
   
   
   
2. Next, scroll down and select Reset to Factory Defaults. Enter your PIN if you’re asked for it.
   
   
3. Finally, click Reset. You will then be notified that the device is resetting to factory defaults. Wait a few minutes for it to finish. Meanwhile, you will also be advised not to unplug the device during the whole process. If the power supply gets cut off while the process is ongoing, you may have to start the whole process all over again.

5. After your device resets, it will automatically restart as if you’re setting it up for the first time. It will then automatically optimize system storage and applications. Once this is done, the device will restart again.

3. Click Reset when you see the pop-up message. Wait a few minutes for it to finish. Meanwhile, you will also be advised not to unplug the device during the whole process. If the power supply gets cut off while the process is ongoing, you may have to start the whole process all over again.
