Google Streamer: How to Reboot the App & Clear Cache

Modified on Fri, 22 May at 3:39 PM

Device: Google TV Streamer 4K

Issue: The screen is solid white or blank with no background, headings, or content displayed.


Use this article when: The screen is frozen, sluggish, not loading content, or behaving unexpectedly, and a reboot is needed.


Do not use this article if:

  • The screen is completely black — Check your TV input, HDMI cable, and the power block.

Steps

  1. Open Admin Panel: From the menu screen, press OK on your remote to open the Admin Panel.

  2. Reset App: Use the arrow keys to navigate to Reset App and press OK.

  3. Return to Menu: You'll be taken to the device home screen. Scroll back down to the Budvue app and open it. 

  4. Allow Loading: Give the menu a moment to load — it may take a minute or two to fully refresh.

  5. Clear Cache: Repeat the same steps above, but this time, navigate to Clear Cache instead of Reset App to ensure a complete refresh.


Expected result: App reboots and the Budvue menu loads automatically with updated content.


Resolution

If the issue that prompted the reboot is now resolved, no further action is needed.
