How To Remove Kodi From Firestick

Kodi is a remarkable media center, but if you need to uninstall Kodi to upgrade it on an Amazon Fire Stick, you have to reinstall it. If you have had enough and want to try another system, you will have to uninstall Kodi altogether.

The Amazon Fire Stick is a decent device in itself. It provides access to a lot of TV shows and movies and is a great purchase, but installing Kodi brings it to life.

You then expand your options considerably, depending on the Kodi add-on modules you use. Since the installation only takes about five minutes, this is something every Amazon Fire Stick user should try at least once.

Here you can see how to un-install Kodi FireStick forever. Also, you can install Kodi onto FireStick if upgrading to a new version of Kodi beyond Kodi 17.6; FireStick needs the space.

Kodi add-ons eat away at spare space on the device it needs for installed applications. (Read Getting started with Kodi)


How Do You Exit Kodi on FireStick?

You often tend to find that when using a FireStick or a Fire TV with Kodi, you may never entirely turn them off. Thus, you may never exit Kodi fully, and it sits there waiting until you begin it again.

In addition to this, many users, when asked, do just hold the ‘Power’ button on the remote. It is easy to see why there are errors on occasions with Kodi not starting correctly.

You need to make sure you turn off Kodi in the right manner after each use, or you can run into issues, hence the reason to uninstall Kodi from your Fire TV Stick or Amazon Fire TV.

The correct way to exit from Kodi is by using the menu ribbon.

  1. Scroll along the menu ribbon to the option ‘Exit Kodi’
  2. Select Quit
  3. It can take a while for Kodi to close and be released from memory

Here are a couple of wrong ways how to exit from Kodi:

  • You are pressing the ‘Home’ button on your remote while running Kodi. It can be OK if you are using Kodi again; however, make sure you close Kodi if not using it.
  • You are running Kodi, and you hit the red ‘Power’ button on your remote to turn off your Kodi box.
  • You pull the power cord from the back of the box when Kodi is still running. This acts as a power outage, and doing it too often can damage your FireStick Fire TV or any other device you use with Kodi.

Note, if you do damage your device, you may find you have gone over the rights reserved and voided your warranty. Best case, you may need to send your name, email address for assistance, or leave a reply.
