Clearing your device cache and data

To clear your cache and help with performance stability, you can try clearing stored data on your device using the following steps:

Android phone and tablet

Android TV

Apple TV

Chromecast

Web browser

Fire TV and Fire TV Stick

PlayStation

Xbox

Note: When you’re online, your device downloads many, many files so you can get the experience you expect from the websites and apps you’re using. Some of these files are stored on your device so your experience is seamless. These stored files are your cache. Over time, however, your cache can fill with files that slow performance for a variety of reasons. That’s why it’s a good idea to clear your cache periodically, especially if you’re having trouble using Disney+.
