    Don’t recommend, device come with an obscene amount of useless apps you are then forced to manually restrict. Unable to download video content without paywall restrictions.

    It’s okay but it’s quite glitchy. When the Amazon Alexa screen pops up you cannot use it and have to slide screen down and click something else.

    Is not bad but since it has the amazon interface and store, it doesnt offer as much apps as the google play store. Screen sucks to be honest and its confusing for kids to use compared to other tablets but I understand for the price you can’t really complain.

    It freezes and it’s slow. I wanted to get my 2 year old a tablet since her brother has an iPad so I went with this instead since iPads are pricier but I should’ve just paid more for something that would work good. Regret this buy

      Hi AdrianaZ, I am sorry about the experience you are having with the Fire HD 8 Kids tablet. In most cases, intermittent or slow performance on a Fire tablet can be quickly resolved by clearing app cache and background data that is running. 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 on the device. You can reach them at 1-888-280-4331. I hope this information is helpful, thank you! AmazonDevices
