    Apologies for the thickness, but are these just for Kindles or any Android device?

    Some are Kindle specific, but most are for all Android devices.

    Any Android device.. but you need to install the Amazon Appstore app on your Android device first.. at least I did.

    Thanks OP

    Sign into Amazon now with your credentials and 'purchase' all the apps. They will all be linked to your account. Then just install the Amazon app on the new tablets when you get them and all the apps will be available to download. The downside of this is that you will have your Amazon details in the app so there is the potential that the kids could make purchases through that. I'm not sure if the apps will work if you delete the Amazon app after you install the other apps.

    Thanks OP, not as good a selection as some of previous ones they have done but still couple of nice ones. How do you find out about these, cause I think they do it regular enough but I only ever see them on here. Do you just have to keep your eye out on amazon.

    I just follow a facebook page that posts news related to Android :)

  • Banned (with Prison Access) Posts: 1,201 ✭✭✭tharmor


    I keep buying these but never install them...


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 55,571 ✭✭✭✭Mr E


    No point in ever buying any "Five Nights at Freddies" games on Android. Amazon keep giving them away.
    That's the third one I've got for free (not that I'm complaining!)


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 3,553 ✭✭✭lmimmfn


    Can't see any install button for game of thrones?

    *EDIT* Never mind was using an amazon.com account.

    Ignoring idiots who comment "far right" because they don't even know what it means



  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 1,442 ✭✭✭September1


    For some apps you need to use Parcelmotel ;-)


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 9,014 ✭✭✭Soarer


    Sterling's strength against the Euro is making this less attractive than normal.

    I'm getting "not eligible to purchase this app due to geographical restrictions" ?

    Well, quite opposite - it makes saving of 140 Euro

    As I mentioned before, you need to use UK address - for example ParcelMotel.

    What a strange way of looking at it.

    But I suppose it shows that those shops who constantly display excessive ex prices actually do it for a reason. eg: Was 99.99 - Now 19.99 (SportsDirect etc).

    It's best to just look at the actual price and make your own judgement. In this case it's free...

    Seeing as how this never got answered :
    If you uninstall the Amazon App after downloading the purchased game/app (let's say App for the amazon app, Game for the downloaded app/game), it will no longer function. You get a license error.

    If you use profiles, for example installing Amazon App on your profile and the game on both your and your kids profile, but block the Amazon App for your kids so they can't buy anything, you cannot use the game on your Kid's profile. It will only run on a profile that has access to run the Amazon app

    The Amazon App does not require internet access to run or authenticate the game once you've installed the games, so sticking on Airplane mode prevents unnecessary purchases, but also all other communicaitons, necessary or otherwise. Alternatively you could create an Amazon account with dummy payment option (eg an about-to-expire credit card) on it so they can't buy anything?

    I changed my One-Click default address to my PM address as recommended, but still can't get Game of Thrones. Are you guys buying through the Amazon app or something?

    You need to sign into Amazon, go to Your Account, Manage Your Content and Devices, Settings tab and change your Country Settings to UK.

    Thanks! Had to do that on Amazon.com, not .co.uk, but it worked.

    If there are different apps in the .com store you could register an account for say a landmark or hotel in the states and get them on that too ;)
    I think i read you can.
