Your very welcome .
I use a site called spectrum where you can record live tv .
When I record the record still uses the internal storage , if anybody knows why could you please let me know .
Not the end of the world and thanks again for this video .

This helped a lot along with another video. If anyone else can’t find Developer Options there is a way to get those back. Under Device, and selecting Your TV seven times in a row. If someone already shared that, sorry! Took me ages to find a fix.
I am glad you found out how to get developer options back, if anyone is struggling here is a video which shows you how ua-cam.com/video/QPKig5eBWbw/v-deo.html
Thank you so very much!! Everyone else was talking about XML codes and non-existant options to move to USB - this was straightforward and IT WORKED. Thank you very much indeed
You're welcome!
This video helped me a lot thank you so much! I will say when I first went to my fire tv in settings developer wasn’t an option. I then learned if you click about and then click the name of your device 7x that option will appear. I cannot believe Amazon makes it this difficult. Also I don’t understand why they won’t allow us to remove their apps but this video is absolutely amazing and I’m just thrilled it worked!!
You're welcome!
I may have my own process now, but I have to thank you for all of the info! You're an invaluable source! I don't (DON'T) subscribe to anything on UA-cam, but you have earned my respect & confidence, therefore I did subscribe! Keep up the great info & informing the uninformed such as myself, Mark
I am glad you found the info helpful and I am grateful you have chosen to subscribe to my channel I hope I can help you more.
Thank you so much Chris this video was a life saver and SUPER helpful!! I was actually referred to your video from an Amazon customer representative because i was having trouble moving my apps to USB lol So apparently they use your video also!!! lol Idk if this is just a problem over here in United States? But my tv didnt have "developer options" as an available option in my settings initially, so there was no way for me to bypass the security need to use x-plore like you were showing! After little research i found that Amazon removed developer options on the latest software update, at least for me here in the States. But they did not delete it from the operating software it is just hidden so i had to unlock it. The settings for me are little different they vary from region to region. So i dont have "My Fire Tv" tab, for me it was "Device & Software", then click on the tab "About", and then i had to click "Your Tv" tab like 6-7 times until it says "no need, your are already a developer". and then you just hit back button to return to the "device & Software" page and "Developer options" is back as a tab option. it doesn't use "install unknown apps" and then lists individual apps here, instead it has "apps from unknown sources" tab and you just need to turn that on and you can install apps from any source. once i did that the security restriction was lifted and x-plore worked perfectly like you showed!! Just wanted to mention this incase anybody else from different region ran into the same problem i did. Thanks again for posting....cheers!
Thank you, I am glad the video helped and thanks for the information.
Thank you so much for your clear explanation - This is the only option/app i have seen to move the majority off apps to an external HD

Thank you, thank you, thank you for the information and for making the clearest most understandable and helpful videos.
You are so welcome!
You're good at explaining things clearly. Thank dude.
Glad you think so!
Just a couple things to keep in mind here:
1. Any app updates for apps you're not supposed to put on a USB drive will fail with "not enough space." You need to move it back to internal storage, update, then go through all this again to put it back, then set the app up all over again.
2. Apps running from the USB drive are much slower and prone to crashing (this is true even for apps that officially support being moved to USB).
But thank you for this very useful tip, my 4gb Fire TV filled up pretty much immediately, even with everything moved to USB that I could I still only have not even 2gb free
Thanks for letting us know of the pitfalls of expanding your storage.
@Adan M I read somewhere that Amazon has in the past recommended a USB 3.0 drive with 128gb or less of storage, which coincidentally is exactly what I bought to use with my Fire TV
@Adan M I would say 32gn or 64gb usb2
@@JeffPaine4890 yes and it works great with 👍 the new Firestick 4K max which is faster, better and easier than the regular firesticks! Definitely worth the investment to upgrade to the 4K max. I did and haven't regretted it to this day. I bought the 128gb USB too but decided on a smaller USB of 64 gb which is more than enough for the live TV apps I like including two Kodi's one the regular Kodi build along with another Kodi fork build which Troy point offers for an efficient system, if you like trying that along with other apps including some Amazon apps that can be moved to USB.
Would it be possible to move the app back to the FS, use it and return it to the usb? Xplorer would help with this.
This had been so helpful. It beat having to go to a command line and putting in all sorts of stringed commands....I was able to even beat what Chris Waite put....When in the file manager I was able to simply move all the files I wanted by selecting the move option. This was far vfaster and easier than copying to the clipboard. This option even took care of uninstalling the app. Another tedious step avoided!
Thanks for the info.
NOOICE!!! and thank you for speeding through it forcing me to pause the video (not being saecastic). worked like a charm

Thank you, Thank you. I wanted apps on the Tv that I mainly watch and I disliked that we had to choose between who’s viewing apps gets to stay. But now that I followed your instructions I can have my apps on the external for when I am ready to view.
I am glad this helped!
yes!!!!! worked...... all the other tutorials on youtube didn't, thank you every much
done it with 2 apps now, works like a charm!

Man thank you so much! Thought I was going to have to buy another smarttv with the apps already loaded. Thanks for the information. It worked great!
Glad I could help
This was great, exactly what I was looking for, thanks! The only thing missing was how to have "Developer Options" appear on the Firestick menu, as it doesn't appear by default. A quick Google search helped me find that though.
Glad it helped! I also have a video on how to get developer options back.
Because this clip is so useful, I don't only "like" it but you have got a new subscriber!
I am glad you like the video and thank you for subscribing.
Good to know it's more than one way to move apps to external storage. I do it a little differently. On the left side, I highlight Internal storage, app manager then install. On right side highlight internal storage and to downloader. On left side highlight the app you want to move. holed it down then hit move, it will take you the steps to uninstall it, and it will appear on right side under downloader. click on it, and it will install, and you are done, go back home to application and you will see usb icon.
Thank you for the tip.
Nice 👍. Tech Doctor has a good way to do it also!
This Was The Most Informative and Straight To The Point Video THAT WORKED Ever!!! Thank You So Much Chris. We Called The Company and They Were Not Even Close To Fixing The Issue Of Saving Space or Helping at All. This Was Just Incredible and Again It WORKED! To Make It Super Easy We Did a Factory Reset (Because No More Room Was Available For The XPlore App) and Did The Restore and After Installing The Apps We Wanted We Followed Your Directions (Verbatim) and Added Them To The External Flash Drive and Smiles All Around, Lets Pray There Is No More Stupid Storage is Full Issue. Thanks Again and Have a Great Week Chris!

Thank you for your kind words, I am glad the video helped you get this sorted!
WOW I SECOND THIS . I HAD BEEN STUCK ON THE SPACE ISSUE FOR A WHILE ADDED A USB STICK THAT WORKED BUT I WAS UNABLE TO MOVE ANYTHIN AT ALL. NOW PROBLEM SOLVED. THANKS CHRIS
@@jce13jce Thank you glad to help!
Which apps could you move?
I agree with the former comments, The Move button is a more efficient way since it automatically delete the app and click on the new apk in the right window… it all works either way, nice video, Thanks.
Yes I missed that, but I am glad that it helps.
Thank you so much. Finally my TV will work correctly again.
Glad I could help
Thanks, Great Job Explaining.
Works well but when the app tries to update the FS can’t find it on the usb. You have to move it back to internal and update the do it all again. Somewhere I saw an app that works around this issue. Will have to look for it…
Unfortunately I am not sure of a way around this.
Thank you so much for this. My memory on my fire TV is full. I have a USB drive and new apps wouldn't install as it would say memory full, and wouldn't give the option to use USB drive. Since doing this, it now installs on the USB!
Glad I could help
I have a toshiba fire tv. Have tried both usb 2.0 and 3.0 128gb fat32 format.
Keeps saving back to tv.
Do you have the same tv? And what usb did you use?
Thanks for your help.
@@seancavanaugh5630 I have a JVC fire TV. The TV formats the USB drive to whatever is needed, sorry don't know what format.
I have one of these usb, either with 16gb or 32gb: www.picstop.co.uk/user/products/SanDisk-Cruzer-Edge-64GB-1.jpg
I moved apps from the TV to the flash drive using the method shown in this vid. Since doing this sometimes new apps automatically saves to flash drive, sometimes not. If not, I just make sure the TV has the enough memory, and then move to the flash drive using the method here
@@seancavanaugh5630 I have a 4k stick a 4k Max Stick and a cube, I have not got a fire Tv I’m afraid so can’t be sure this works.

Thank you for this! Can big apps like KODI run off external storage or will it lag when trying to use?
Thanks for your video info about move on usb storage.
Why X-Plorer don't show Extarnal Memory but only internal memory ? (not appear the external memory icon me too)
Video was great! Clear and precise! Everything worked great! But now my problem is that I can't launch the apps that I moved to usb???? Do you know why that is? Internal storage apps open fine . It's the external storage apps that won't open!!! Can you or anyone in the community please help me out!!
I would try a different external device.
@Chris Waite thank you. I just ordered a different usb drive an MD different otg cables. I realized after I checked Amazon that the usb drive that I bought was more for laptops and phones. And it wasn't fat23 formatted either.
I did all this and it installed right back on internal storage.
Some apps will do this if they are not designed to be allowed to be installed on external storage.
I believe one can move appropriate apps but it only moves the app itself and not the working files ? If one is attempting to gain storage, it seems a fire TV cube with twice the 16G space might be the easiest. Plus it has other features that may or may not be super cool.
Yes the cube is the simplest and easiest way to get more space, I got one a few months ago and I have never looked back!
You're amazing. Thank you.

Well done video, however every time I reinstall the app it installs on the internal storage and not the USB formated by the TV with 15gb available?
Unfortunately some apps are designed to be installed on the internal storage, the app developer has probably specified this in their code for the app. You could try moving it to usb.
I'm about to install a few apps to see if any of them allow the installs to be stored in external storage.
These features appear very well hidden from the user.
Hello there I try to follow you description and it doesn't work I'm usually micro SD card as storage could please help to see what I'm doing wrong thank you
You are a lifesaver!
Glad to help.
Hi Chris, to skip a few steps, in right hand pane of xplore, highlight download folder then in left hand pane application manager - installed apps. Instead of copy to clipboard, just select move option & the new apk will be moved to download folder & option to uninstall the app will be automatically displayed.
I might have to try this method, will apps be updated on External storage or do you have to move them back to internal storage for them to be updated thanks
Yes. The apps that you move will be updated to external storage.
Also, any future sideloaded apps will go straight to external storage.
@@davidiam9621 all my apps already go to my usb I was just wondering if they will still get updates when it’s time for them to be updated Just making sure you knew what I was talking about ty
Thanks for the tip, I haven't tried it the way you suggest, but I cannot see any reason why it would not work. Thanks again.
Thanks for the vid - I came close to giving up because my cursor would not move after copying to clipboard, no amount of toggling helped - I had to press up really quickly after doing that for it to work 🤷♂️ then hallelujah! Does anyone have a list of apps that can be moved to USB? I assume most sideloaded apps can be, what about apps that can be loaded straight on like VLC player? Is there a list of these anywhere?
I am glad you got it working unfortunately I don’t know of a list of apps that can be moved to external storage, any apps could be blocked the developer of the app can chose weather on not to allow the app to be moved to external storage.
Moving apps worked fine. But now the apps I moved will not update. I get a message of insufficient storage for update. If I move them back they they update. Seems that apps that you move using this method can not be updated on external memory. Is there a work-around?
Unfortunately some apps are simply not setup to be moved off the internal memory and therefore do not auto update, so far I have not found a workaround, I'm afriad!
The idea is great. But if it is this much trouble to move back and forth then why.
To free up space on your stick!
Legend, they really need to make it easier to do this. Why give external usb option if their system doesnt let you move it over
Works perfectly. Many thanks!😎
Hi I moved the apps over but when I tried to open them I got errors. Ended up moving them back to internal and they worked fine. Do you know why this happened?
It may be that some apps are designed to go on the internal memory and don't function properly on external or your usb device or lead may have had an issue.
Hi, for this to work do i format the usb drive as internal or external memory? Thanks!!
Chris.....you're a bloody lifesaver mate. Thanks so much for this. Do you have any way to permanently remove the Amazon bloatware that I never use.....and......do you know of an app that will clear the cache of all apps at once (rather than having to go one by one) - Cheers.
I am afraid there is no way to remove the Amazon bloat.
Very helpful, thank you!

After I select copy to clip board the x player freezes and I can't move up or down. I can only back out. I'm using a firestick 4k max. Any thoughts?
Perhaps try restarting your fire stick by holding down the middle button on the remote, whilst also holding down the play/pause button until it says on the screen, your device is restarting, let the device restart, and then try again.
Wher do you highlight the usb storage, I’ve followed your instructions and it just reinstalls in the internal memory, help I must be missing something?
Not all apps are designed to go to USB Storage, quite a few are hard programmed to go to the Internal storage I am afraid.
I tried attempting to move apps to USB thumb drive, and it doesn’t work on my Fire TV Stick 2nd generation, because it has 5GB of internal storage space. The 3rd generation has a USB external storage feature where you can move apps to USB thumb drive for external storage.
Not all apps can be moved to the USB.
Thank you! My fire TV doesn't give the option to move the apps to my USB at all. Super frustrating. I guess having to do everything over again. Every time an update is needed is better than running out of space. If anyone has any tips for fire tv and why it never gives the option to move the apps, I would be greatful.
I think you would be better off waiting till the Cube is on a special offer and get that instead at least you will have double the storage.
Chris I don't have app management just internal shared storage, USB, and root under root it says your device seems to be not rooted what does that mean? How then can I try to move files from internal to the USB drive?
As you are running Fire OS 6 you need to follow this guide!
do you have a print out how to do this i an 87 and hve trouble following it on utube thnks
I am afraid I don’t have a print out but you can use the pause and rewind buttons on UA-cam to help you follow the video.
Is this possible? Setup a Cloner Alliance ultra with a FIRESTICK with additional memory via OTG cable? If so what type of OTG cable will I need? As always your help is much appreciated.
Yes you can I have a cloner alliance and a OTG cable and it does work, this is the OTG cable you need amzn.to/3jPqP9y
@@cwtek1 Thanks for this Chris, even Cloner Alliance told me it wasn’t possible. Your advice is much appreciated.
I’ve just set up my Cloner Alliance with an OTG cable without any bother.
Do you format the USB for external storage?
It must be formatted to fat32
It is formatted for FAT 33.
Great video but does this only work with usb sticks? What about normal external hdd's with multiple partitions where i set 1 with 128GB in FAT32 to be used as internal and the other partitions as external storage?
This will work on a hard drive too with 1 partition set to FAT32 for extra storage but unfortunately on Sticks running FireOS 7 I cannot seem to get it to format for internal and external storage.
In the process you explain, why do some apps show a box and message at the bottom of the xplore screen once you click copy to clipboard????
I am not sure!
@@cwtek1 I changed the process to use both sides of xplore & began moving apps rather than copying to the clipboard, pasting & deleting after installation. It's much cleaner and faster!!!! No muss, no fuss....work smarter, not harder folks!!!!! Js -Mark
@@cwtek1 If you want the process chapter and verse, I'll lay it out. Lmk
@@markballing9323 Thanks for letting us know.
Cant get this to work with Retroarch apk, always installs to firestick internal memory. Other apks install to usb fine.
I can only assume the app developer has programmed the app to only be installed on internal memory.
hello i just bought a new fire stick tv 4k max and i think it s no more possible to had a externe device. i had try few usbkey in fat 32 and it can t reconize those keys.
it can t reconize a simple mouse too.
if u hav an idea wat is the prob thanks in advance
Try changing your otg cable it could be incompatible or faulty.
Not working for me. The Only thing I did different, We should not matter, I installed an NVME SSD, formated it to fat32 and used firestick to format it to external storage so it can be seen in x-plore but when i copy it like you did and reinstall it, it installs right back on the firestick. My SSD shows up in x-plore just fine and it also shows up as usb storage under My Firestick. ??? What do you think?
I am not sure why if anyone knows please feel free to post.
Do you know if it’s possible to connect a USB drive and use a wire internet connection on firestick max?
Yes there is a Ethernet and USB otg cable that should work or you could try daisy chaining an Ethernet and otg cable together.
Hello, sir!
When I move apps through Xplorer, the original size shrinks and not all app size can be moved to usb!
For example, when the original size of the app is 40 Mb on internal storage before moving, and when I have moved to external storage (usb), the size becomes 21 Mb on usb storage.
Help, please!
I am sorry to hear that.

I used x-plore file manager on my fire stick 4k max to transfer 4 different apps with success to my 30gb usb memory stick. The next day I tried again to transfer another app. After selecting the installed app on the downloader and and copy to clip board. Selected Internal shared storage to paste into download, however there is no download folder there only downloader appears. Something has gone wrong as I am sure it was there when I did the first 4 apps. At a loss can you help please. Very frustrated. Regards. Randall.
do you have a video on recording directly to external storage with 4K max
I am afraid not unfortunately I don’t have any apps that would record directly to any storage.
Apps in the usb can’t update unless you move it back into internal storage. Is there a work around to this?
Your voice sounds like Arthur Shelby
Thanks, I think!
Hi Chris get video I'm going have to reset my firestick have you got a video on how to set my firestick up so half of the memory on the flash drive can be made as internal and half as external if you have it would be much appreciated thanks wayne b🙃 thats 4k max thanks

You need to follow this video ua-cam.com/video/bSUOvpiKd0U/v-deo.html to get the Firestick to work with a USB device
Hi Chris, will this work on a non rooted Firestick Lite? Also will running apps off a 64gb USB be slower? Cheers
First, I apologize I am newbie to this step. What firestick does this task work on?
Also, does anyone know if I need to apply the FAT32 onto a brand new ScanDisk USB 3.0 or 3.1 Flash Drive 64GB, or 3.0, 256GB before I began moving, copying, etc. onto the USB Drives?
This was carried out on the 4k max, the stick will format to a specific format needed for the firestick when you set it up for internal memory storage
@@cwtek1 I’m using the 4K. Thank you very much for your input. It certainly helps!!! Great video! I’ve definitely learned a lot from this video. Keep up the good work. Loving it.
If I move Kodi to the external hard drive, will it work? I know the memory will be erased, but I can always reinstall the build for kodi, but my question is, will Kodi run the same after being moved?
If kodi will let you move it then yes it should work although it might run slightly slower.
i moved kodi to external storage but i find it still uses firestick memory . as my video library increases , my firestick storage space decreases significantly.
anybody know how to remedy this?
Is there any way to have 2 Kodi apps installed on 1 firestick? I have seen it done on a desktop computer but not on a firestick.
It is still attempting to install in the internal drive when I do this because it’ll give an error of “not enough space available.” How do I get it to install on the external?
Unfortunately, some apps will automatically install on the internal memory, as they were not designed to be installed on External.
Chris do you know how to update the apps that have been transferred to the USB stick, I get an error message saying not enough space on the stick to update, although I have one a gig on the main stick and over 100 gigs on the USB drive.
You have to move them back to internal storage, then update them, then move them back to the USB drive.
So you cant just transfer an app to UBS?
Some apps have the option some don't!
Sounds good, except I never get the paste option
Please make sure you have copied the file first!
this app keeps crashing, any ideas why this would be, im new to this
Please try restarting your device.
Hey, I followed the steps but I can’t watch anything that’s transferred on the usb stick. I have to move the app back to internal just to use it. Do you know why that is?
I have a 4k Max second edition. The xplore app has no paste option. Did I miss a step?
You could try using cut and paste or copy and paste instead.
Will do. Thank you!@@cwtek1
When I tried to do this, during the pasting part, my FireTV said “For your security not allowed to install from this source” Any thoughts?
You need to allow apps from unknown sources, in settings, my fire tv, developer options.
Developer options USB debug on allow unknown. Sources
It worked but it won't let me open the app. It shows the logo of the app then it does nothing. I followed steps exactly as shown but the app wont open.
Unfortunately not all apps will allow you to move them to external storage.
1 problem xplore file manager is unavailable
You could try sideloading with downloader here is the download er code 878704
For me after did everything, its still in internal storage. Can some one help me to solve the issues
Please be aware some apps cannot be moved to external storage because the developer has chosen to only have the app on the internal storage.
