Yes. They seem to download ok, but won't install.
Got it, have you checked your internet connection?
Customer Reply
Internet is good. I've tried my wifi hotspot as well as the home wifi.
I see, does the issue happen with other devices?

I have both apps already loaded on my phone.
Have you tried restarting the tablet?

I went to system icon on home screen, but there isn't an Advanced button. would it be under something else?
Open the Settings menu on your Fire tablet and select Device Options. Select System Updates, then Update

I went to the google play store, tapped on the profile icon. can't find anything that says manage apps. maybe I'm looking at the wrong thing.
Can you send me a screenshot?

I'm chatting with you on my laptop, not the tablet
Take it on a laptop and email it to help@howly.com

what exactly do you want a picture of?
The message that displays when you try to install an app?

Just sent it. From *****@gmail.com
Got the email, have you tried using the Google Play app instead of browser?
Customer Reply
i can't find the app on the tablet. I tried doing a search for it
It seems that you might need to use Amazon's Appstore instead
Customer Reply
I tried that and it didn't find it
Try this:
Select Games & Apps or open the Apps or Games app.
Select an app from your Library to download it or search for a new app in the Store.

i tried finding the google playstore app and it doesn't show up in the amazon play store
You might have to use Amazon store instead
Customer Reply
but those apps don't show up there
It's an Amazon tablet, so unfortunately it limits your options a bit
Customer Reply
thanks. guess I'll have to take it back. does samsung have the google play store?
Yes, it does
Customer Reply
Thanks. I appreciate the help
I’m glad I was able to get that sorted out for you. Is there anything else I can assist you with today?
