Hi, I'm looking for the New Amazon Alexa app that's lets you have Alexa on your phone without any Alexa speaker.
It's a download from Amazon play store, but it's blocked here in Sweden.
So if any one is just able to download it and pray it here I would really appreciate it, thanks!
The version is something like xxxx3555xxx or later.

Has anyone else noticed that the Amazon AppStore seems to be cheaper than the Android (Google) Market? Apart from offering a free paid app every day, some apps seem to be less expensive. Another advantage that I noticed is that it's all in US$ and not converted from € or £; this is great because then I don't have to pay foreign transaction fees!
Only disadvantage is that you have to keep an eye on two different market places...
Shame it's not available in the UK - We can view but can't even get the free app of the day - says theservice is not available in your country...

I know that the MarketEnabler app works for the standard android market (for root devices), but does it also work for Amazon's store? or does it pull country ID a different way?
On the Amazon AppStore, Amazon gets to adjust an app's price around. App developers are guaranteed a minimum amount of money (so when one of the apps are free for a day, Amazon is literally just paying the developer for each download!) for paid apps, but Amazon reserves more control.
Personally, I like the AppStore FAR more than the Android Market... I've never once had an issue with stuff from the AppStore totally ignoring you when you tell it to install/update something (unlike what the Market does for me somewhere from 50-90% of the time).

My Transformer is not rooted - I don't intend to root it... not for some time - it's new so I'm "bedding it in" - see if any problems popup..
Just a shame that a company as large as amazon has not expanded the Android market into all regions yet.. and yet Kindle it appears has taken over the world. LOL
My problem with Amazon:
1. Can't turn off one-click purchase. I have purchased apps accidentally.
2. The only way to "diasble" one-click is to de-authorize the device on Amazon's website
3. Once you de-authorize a device or if you uninstall the Amazon App Store app, you can no longer use the app.
Basically, if you buy an app and then decide down the road that you don't like the amazon appstore (for whatever reason). You pretty much can't uninstall it unless you don't want access to the apps you purchased anymore. I don't think the andorid marketplace functions this way.
I am unsure if the apps even function if you don't have a wireless connection. Maybe someone can clarify this.
Also, if there is a way around this, I'd like to hear it.
As is stands now, I have about 6 paid Amazon apps and have now decided that I don't want to use the amazon appstore due to their no-refunds/can't-turn-off-one-click policy(s). So what do I do now? I am forced to leave the amazon appstore app on my device.

I understand what you are saying but it is exactly the same with Google Market; it's just not that obvious! Your device is linked to your google account and your market account is basically identical with (or part of) your google account. So if you decide you don't want to go with google anymore (which is impossible btw) you would lose all your apps as well. Does that make sense?
Ignore me, I obviously didn't read the first post.....
Hmmm. I was just shocked to see that some apps are also more expensive at amazon... Guess at the end of the day it will be very similar after all.
I recently checked out App Brain which is as old as day. GiveMeApps has no developer fees, uses paypal and gives developers 100%. GetJar has a global reach and most if not all of their apps are free which is great and they have GetJarGold.
Which other app stores have you used? I even recently came across an "adult" app store (had no idea those existed until this morning!)
I only use the google play store. I used the Amazon one for a while because of the deals they had, but it really wasn't worth it, IMO. So now I just stick with the Play store. If I need to install something they dont' have I just download and install via the APK.
i am use google play and 1mobile market
In case you didn't know Amazon brought down their price for Prime today (only) to $72 for new members only. So I went and bought a subscription. I can get it to work on my Note 4, but cant seem to get it to work on my Note 12.2
Has anyone figured out how to play from Amazon Instant Videos?
or
I was wondering If anyone knew the right combo of Apps I need to download in order to get Instant Video to work?
Side Note. I know Google Removed Amazon’s Original App from Google Play for Adding their own type of Appstore inside there App.
Ist very simple: you must use the PHONE Version of Amazons store app (NOT "Amazon for Tablets"!!!) to get Instant/Prime Video to work on the tablet! You have to install it with Amazons own app store.

Ok Yeah after downloading a few wrongs ones I figured it out.
Amazon Version 5.2.2 - (Not the Tablet One, or Shopping One)
Instant Video Version 1.0 (I havent looked for an updated version yet)
Sweet I got it to work Thanks!
I must be doing something wrong... I downloaded the amazon app from the Amazon app store and it shows the green watch instantly link, but when I click it loads into the instant video and fails with "unknown_error". Any tips for what I should try differently?

Did you make sure they were the same Versions I posted in my previous Post?
Mine is playing perfectly fine. Try uninstalling and re-installing the apps.
Hey everyone, haven't been on the forums for a long time, anyway i bought a Fire 10 2019 and i went through the process of installing google play store on the device. The Play Store icon shows up, but when i press login nothing happens. I have used the Toolbox V12.0 to try it. The google icon won't open at all but the play store will open, and like i said, it will not let me login. I remember reading a review on amazon.ca and the person who wrote it said the Canadian version of the tablet was like wearing handcuffs compared to the American version. When i ran the toolbox the first few apk's failed. Any suggestions?
You can use a VPN app.
Another Candian here. I've got an HD 10 and the Play Store works without a problem.
The biggest issue with the Canadian Fire vs American is that various built-in services do not function, such as Alexa. (You can use it to control other Alexa-enabled devices, but the assistant portion does not work while it works fine in the US) I ended up installing Google Assistant to fill the role you'd think Alexa would take on an Amazon product.

Sorry i took so long to reply. I did end up getting it to work. Is the Canadian version really as bad compared to the American version as the person who left the review says it is?
Hi Has anyone been successful in finding a way to spoof devices on the Amazon app store? I had a ton of apps that up until a few weeks ago were Compatible with my current device (ASUS ROG PHONE 3) and now it seems apps one by one that were compatible are being changed to incompatible and can't be re/downloaded due to this.. so my two options if they exist is to spoof the device or download the apk off Amazon app store server somehow. Any one know anything about of the possibility of any of this?
