Sorry, there was a problem. Please try again later.To be perfectly honest about it No, An Amazon Kindle Fire tablet (in the past anyway) does not have Google Play on it. I'd imagine that if a Kindle has Google Play on it at all, you should have complete access to all of the apps listed on it, despite the device you're using. However, if you find yourself lacking for options and you find any on Google Play but can't directly download to your Kindle, you CAN download Google Play store apps (basically the .apk format file), install them, and play them on your tablet. (This also works if you feel like taking a couple more risks. There are numerous websites that list TONS of apps, but aren't shown on Itunes, Google Play, or whatever. The only difference is that when you download via Google Play or other 'official' store, there are people who've played and verified the safety of the apps. So they don't mess with your tablet's functionality.) How do I know this works? My mom has an Amazon Kindle Fire. I have an Acer Android. I typically find games over on Google Play that she'd love to play, so I've had to find a way to download them, then move them over to her tablet to install and play. (Mainly ebook reading apps, majoghn, solitare, puzzle games, etc.) I managed to find apps. evozi. com then select APK Downloader and omg what a godsend that site is. Although it won't work with paid apps, it'll let you download free apps. Mainly, it lets you download the apk file to your Kindle. You use a file manager to open and install, and there you go. A bit more round about than if you had a Google Play Store installed tablet, but it works. I've also read about how you can download the Google Play and Google Services onto a Non-Google device but... yeah... I don't personally trust those. Sounds too iffy for me. Hope this helps!
