<h2><strong>Do you need to clear cache on Smart TV?</strong></h2>

<h2><strong>Can I update the apps on my Vizio TV?</strong></h2>

<p>VIZIO Smart TVs <b>receive Firmware Updates automatically</b>. &#8230; VIZIO does not offer Firmware Updates upon request; you simply have to connect your VIZIO Smart TV to the internet.
