A feature like FPS tracking through AMD link is highly dependent on the availability of the internet. A lapse in the speed or connection strength can greatly affect the performance.

2) Clear app cache:
Clearing the AMD link app cache on your mobile phone is the next best fix you can try. Tap and hold the app and select the info icon from the small window. Select app info will take you to a list of different actions you can take. From there, select ‘Clear cache’. Deleting the unwanted cache files on your device can help free up some space for the app to work efficiently. And anyhow, cache files get outdated very quickly. There’s no point in stacking useless info. After clearing the app cache, run the AMD link again and see if you can see the FPS without any problems.
3) Reinstall the app:
Reinstalling the app ensures that all the problematic files are removed completely. Uninstall the AMD link app from your secondary device. Now look for the app files that might be left behind. Delete those files and reinstall the AMD link app. This time when you link your PC to keep track of the FPS, it should display all the necessary updates without any problems.
4) Restart the device:
If reinstalling the app did not do the job, restart both the devices that are connected via the AMD Link. Instead of looking for individual problems in both devices, just restart both the devices and link them again. This time AMD link will display all the necessary stats including the FPS without any problems.
