Do you want to know what happened to your Google Play App on your Kindle?
Error Downloading Apps On Kindle Fire
Alright. You know that update you just downloaded on your Kindle a few hours ago?
Yeah.
Amazon blocked it.
And yes that means you can't enter your Google Play app, update any of your downloaded apps, and the worst of all?
You can't even use the apps that you had downloaded.
But despite that nightmarish trauma that you just underwent reading the previous line on how you can't use any of your apps on your Kindle, there is aquick and simple fix for this.
I'll show you how to fix Google Play on Fire tablets after update. 🙂
What you need to know
There are two or three things that you need to know before you fix Google Play on Fire tablets after the recent update:
- This fix is for you if your Kindle Fire tablet is of either 5th or 6th Generation after the 5.3.1.1 and 5.3.2 updates (which means this works if whether you have the $49 Fire tablet, the Fire HD 10 or either both of the Fire HD 8 tablets).
- After you've got Google Play on your Kindle Fire tablet, you don't need to reinstall all of the four files that you had downloaded in the first place. All you need to download is just these two files that I'll be showing you below.

However, if you haven't got Google Play on your Kindle Fire, then yes you need to install all four of the files in that guide.
