How to Update Your Onn. Streaming Device Software
Walmart regularly ships software updates to Onn. streaming devices — sometimes to add features, and sometimes to patch bugs affecting Wi-Fi, playback, or stability. Checking for updates only takes a minute, and it’s one of the first things worth trying whenever something on your device feels off. Here’s exactly where to find it, on every current Onn. model.
How to Check for and Install an Update
1. From the home screen, select the gear icon (Settings) in the top-right row of Quick Settings.
2. Choose See all settings, then scroll to System.
3. Select About, then System update.
4. Select Check for update. Your device will automatically look for the latest version.
5. If one is available, select Download and install. Keep the device plugged in and connected to Wi-Fi throughout — don’t unplug it mid-update, as a power loss during installation can corrupt the system.
