Good for the price but slow and full of adds
||Posted . Owned for 2 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.It’s a nice machine for the price but very slow. The Amazon App Store doesn’t have a Kobo app which i understand because it’s competition on the other hand it’s annoying because I have books on kobo also so I should’ve bought IPad . But it’s good for the price. Lots of adds and bloatware.

Posted .Hello, GerardF. Thank you for taking the time to leave a review and I am sorry to hear about the performance issue you are having with the Fire HD 8. Slow performance on a Fire tablet can often be resolved by clearing app cache and background data. Here is how to do this: Open the Settings menu. Select Apps & Notifications. Select Manage All Applications or See all... apps and choose the app you are having trouble with. Select Storage, tap to Clear Data or Clear Storage, then Clear Cache. If these steps do not help, and you are still having functionality issues, you can call Amazon customer service, available 24/7 for assistance with the device. You can reach them at 1-888-280-4331. I hope this information is helpful. Thank you!

||Posted . Owned for 3 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.It seems to keep the children entertained for hours on end. They don't respond to questions like "Do you want ice cream?" or "Is your hair on fire?" or "I wonder why Santa is at the front door?". Thank you Best Buy and Fire - the hours of mindless screen time have been a life saver.

Q: QuestionHow is this different from the kids version?
Asked by Anonymous.
- A:Answer Hi there! The Amazon Fire HD 8 is the same tablet as the kids version. The difference is that the kids version comes with a kid proof case, a year of Kids+ curated content for kids, and a 2 year worry free guarantee. Besides those extras, they're the exact same tablet. Hope that helps, and that you have a great day!

Q: QuestionDoes this Fire version have the text to speech feature for books? Does this Fire version include white text on a black background? Does this Fire version have a rotate screen option?
Asked by jm.
- A:Answer Hello jm, Yes, the Fire HD 8 Tablet can do all of these things. First of all, in order to get Text to Speech on books in the Kindle App, I have attached the steps below: While reading, tap the center of the screen, and then tap the menu icon Aa in the upper right corner. Tap More, and then tap the switch next to Text-to-Speech to turn it on. In your Kindle book, tap the screen to show the progress bar, and then tap the Play button next to the progress bar to hear the text read aloud. To increase or decrease the reading speed of the Text-to-Speech voice, tap the Narration Speed icon. You can listen to the Text-to-Speech voice through the external speakers on your device or through your earphones plugged into the headphone jack. In order to Display White Text on a Black Background, while in the document you are viewing, you can tap the middle of the page and the options toolbar will appear. Then, You can click on the "Text" Button which will give you the options to change the size, color and font of text.This will allow you to change to a white text on a black background. The Fire HD 8 Tablet has the capability to rotate the screen as well. If you would like to Lock or Unlock screen rotation you can Swipe down from the top of the screen. You will see an Image stating if the tablet is in Portrait or Landscape mode. When you hold down on this button, A menu will come up which will allow you to turn on or turn off the screen rotation. I hope this helps!

Q: QuestionCan you download apps from Google Play store or what OS is this tablet
Asked by Steve.
- A:Answer No, you cannot download Google Play app on this tablet according to the Gek Squad employees at my local Best Buy. To download the “free” Trend Micro Mobile Security antivirus security (free for 3 months as advertised when I bought the tablet) as the directions on downloading and installing instruct you to download Google Play app. I tried thru the Amazon play app, and it is incompatible, or so the Geek Squad told me. I took it personally into the store to ask because I can’t get it downloaded. It is incompatible also with the web root service I have with the Geek Squad and was told that I don’t really need either as this tablet “isn’t really considered a computer.” So why does it say on the Best Buy online website you 3 mo. of free Trend Micro Mobile Security? Two people in the Geek Squad area told me this when I took it into the store for help. I think they just really didn’t care, or else it was false advertising.

Q: QuestionIs there any way that you can purchase a wi-fi plan for this? Not through cellular just to have internet connection at all times.
Asked by Karla.
- A:Answer Hello Karla, Unfortunately, Amazon does not offer any sort of WiFi plans for devices. However, all Amazon Tablets can connect to open or secured Wifi Networks. This would mean if you are traveling and would like to use the tablet, through the settings on the tablet you are able to access nearby wireless networks. Your tablet would also be able to connect to any sort of mobile hotspot from a cellular provider.
