Alternatively, for Windows and Android, you can use CCleaner, either the free or the paid version. Scan your device with this tool and allow it to delete all unwanted files.

    3. It should take a few seconds to clear the cache.

3. Check your Internet connection

  1. Turn off all devices connected to your home network.
  2. Close all background apps or other programs.
  3. Place the modem or router near your device and see if this solves the problem.
  4. Or connect your device to the Internet using an Ethernet cable.

Additionally, make sure that you meet the minimum Internet speed values so that the services work properly: 2.8 Mb/s or higher for good quality and 1.2 Mb/s for medium quality.


4. Uninstall the Sling TV app

This should be the last resort, but uninstalling the app will also delete any temporary or unsued files that might be stored in your device. A fresh re-install should also come with the latest updates.
