Is it a kindle fire or you are having problems with the app on a different device?

I haven't tried any other device

Force Reboot the Kindle:

  • To execute this, press and hold the power button on your Kindle for 40 seconds.
  • Do not press any buttons after these 40 seconds and wait for a minute for your Kindle to power back up.
