Amazon Fire Stick owners are just realizing hidden button hold trick unlocks new settings and takes 5 seconds to access

AMAZON Fire TV Stick users don’t have to suffer if their TV shows or movies aren’t appearing in the best quality.

A remote trick reveals a hidden menu that gives you more adjustment options.

All you have to do is use your Fire TV remote to hold down the Up button and the Rewind button.

Hold both down for five seconds and you should see a resolution menu appear.

This should allow you to access more resolutions than you see in your standard TV settings.

Generally, you only have the option to pick from 720p, 1080p, and 2160p.

The hidden menu will help you search through all the options on your Fire TV.

According to AFTV News, using 480p is better for older TVs with smaller displays.

You’ll also see refresh rate options appear.

Refresh rates determine how many images appear on your screen in one second.

Generally, the higher the rate, the smoother the content can look.

Different content works better at different refresh rates so you can always do your research for your favorite movie or TV show.

Once you’re happy, just click to confirm your new resolution and refresh rate.

If you change your mind, it can easily be reverted by following the same steps.

Sometimes the resolution and refresh rate aren’t the problem when it comes to lagging movies.

It could be due to your internet connection so it’s worth double-checking your Amazon Fire Stick is connecting to a strong network.
