  • QuestionIs this the same thing as a kindle my daughter loves to read books

    Asked by Drika.

    • Answer Hello Drika, The Amazon Fire HD 8 Tablet is a fully functional tablet. It does have the Kindle App on it but it also has the ability to download apps, browse the web, make video calls and stream movies, TV or music! The Kindle App comes pre installed on all Amazon Fire Tablets. If you have an existing Kindle account, you can log in to it through the Tablet and your daughter will be able to access books you already own. If you don't have a Kindle account set up, its free to sign up and pair your existing Amazon Account with. Once you have the Kindle App set up, your daughter will be able to choose from any of the millions of titles available for purchase on Kindle. Through Kindle and your local library, she will also be ablet to check out books through Libby. The only thing you will need for Libby, is a current Library card from your local library, then she would even be able to check out books for free and read them at her leisure. I hope this helps and that she has a blast reading!

    Asked by Anonymous.

    • Answer Hi! The Fire HD 8 is good for casual, basic drawing and sketching, especially with a simple capacitive stylus. It's not ideal for serious digital art due to a lack of pressure sensitivity, potential lag, and the limited options in the app store. I hope this answers your question!
