The primary joy of owning a smart TV is getting to enjoy your favorite shows across different apps, all of which are available on the same device and are easily accessed with a few simple clicks. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

However, this joy is somewhat diminished when the apps start crashing or malfunctioning on your smart TV. This makes it imperative to know how to reset apps on VIZIO Smart TV.<\/strong> <\/p>\n\n\n\n

While I am the proud owner of an LG Smart TV, most folks around me, from my parents to my girlfriend, have a VIZIO Smart TV at home. Consequently, I am frequently called upon to resolve one issue or the other. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

While I have already discussed resetting a VIZIO Smart TV<\/a> for my parents or clearing the cache<\/a> on my girlfriend’s television set, I will be exploring something else entirely in this article.  <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Now, you all know one’s girlfriend cannot be put off for long. However, once I had resolved her TV issues, she couldn’t stop bragging about it to her friends. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

As a result, I found myself besieged by her friends to resolve the issues on their smart devices, too. As a self-confessed idler, I had no interest in helping them all. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

However, in the end, I really couldn’t say no to her best friend as else I would have landed in deep trouble with my girlfriend. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

However, everything worked out for the best in the end, as I learned so much about how apps work on a VIZIO Smart TV. It also gave me a chance to create an exciting, new topic for my blog and even learn how do you reset apps on a VIZIO Smart TV<\/strong>. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

However, before we learn how to reset apps, let’s examine the key reasons why you may need to do so. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Why Do You Need to Reset Apps on VIZIO Smart TV<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n
\"Why<\/figure>\n\n\n\n

Trust me when I tell you that there’s nothing worse than your Netflix app crashing while you are binge-watching Euphoria<\/em> or watching all the seasons of Dollface<\/em> on Hulu. I know how I feel when it happens to me during a Money Heist<\/em> <\/strong>marathon. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

My girlfriend and her best friend were seriously annoyed once this happened a few times. As a result, I was called in to ensure that it never happened again. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Now, for those of you who are facing issues with the apps on their VIZIO televisions, here’s a checklist of factors that may be causing them:<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Low Memory Storage<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n

If you allow the cache data to accumulate in your TV’s memory instead of clearing it out every few months, then the chances are that your device is low on storage. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

A low or backed-up memory may be the reason why your apps are not functioning properly. The piled-up cache can corrupt your apps or even prevent you from installing the latest updates on your TV.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Slow Internet Speed<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n
\"Slow<\/figure>\n\n\n\n

Another reason why the apps on your VIZIO Smart TV keep buffering is a slow internet connection.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

I personally think it’s a waste to use your smart TV without the internet<\/a> or even with a slow internet connection as it’s such a waste.  <\/p>\n\n\n\n

If your TV keeps buffering instead of playing your favorite shows, you need to check your internet connection right away. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Here is how you can check the internet speed on your VIZIO Smart TV:<\/p>\n\n\n\n
