Content saved to external storage can't be transferred to other devices—you can't add apps and games saved to
your microSD card to another Amazon Fire TV device or copy content from one microSD card to another.
Some critical apps, like Amazon Appstore, cannot be moved to microSD storage. Each game and app on your Fire
TV uses a small amount of internal storage, even if it is also stored on your microSD card.
Some apps and games are configured with a default installation location. The "Technical Details" section on the
overview page specifies whether the app or game will automatically install to internal storage or your external
storage device.
If you run out of storage space on your microSD card, apps and games automatically save to your Fire TV's
internal storage. You can switch to a different microSD card or remove saved content from your microSD storage.
If you run out of internal storage space on your Fire TV, a notification displays on-screen when you try to save new
content. You can move installed applications to an external storage device or remove saved content from your
internal storage.
Safely Remove a MicroSD Card
If you need to remove your microSD card, first make sure to eject it from your Amazon Fire TV, following
the steps below.
If you don't safely remove your card, the games, apps and other files saved to it could become corrupted
and unusable.
Before ejecting your microSD card, make sure you're not currently running an app or game saved to it on your Fire TV.
To safely remove microSD storage:
Select Settings
Select Eject.
A notification displays on-screen to explain that any apps or games on your microSD card will no longer
be available after you remove it. If you still want to proceed, confirm by selecting Eject again.
Wait for another notification that tells you when it's safe to remove your microSD card from the port on
the back of your device.
