Amazon Fire Tablets are some of the most accessible gadgets on the market. For around the same price as dinner and drinks for two, you get a full-blown tablet. However, they're stuck with the Amazon App Store. If you want some of the most popular apps, you'll need to install the Google Play Store.
Big name apps like WhatsApp, Netflix, Spotify, Instagram, TikTok, YouTube, and more are available on Fire Tablets. However, when scrolling through the Play Store charts, there are a few notable apps I noticed that are not available in the Amazon App Store. To get them, you'll need to follow our guide for installing the Play Store on Fire Tablets.
1 Telegram
While the App Store does have WhatsApp and Facebook Messenger, it does not have another hugely popular messaging app: Telegram. It's ranked 7th for free apps in the Play Store. You could try to use Telegram in the Silk Browser, but a dedicated app would work much better.
2 Gmail
Unsurpsiginly, there aren't a lot of Google apps available in Amazon's competing App Store—YouTube and YouTube TV are the only ones. You can use Gmail on Fire Tablets with the stock Email client or through the Silk Browser, but the expirience is severely lacking.
3 Chrome
Chrome is an even worse situation than Gmail. Fire Tablets are restricted to Amazon's Silk Browser or Opera (which you should not use), both of which are not great browsers. You'll need to install something else if you want to do some serious browsing, and Chrome is the most popular browser.
4 Cash App
I was surprised by a few apps that appeared in the Play Store's Top Charts. One such app was Cash App, which came in at number 10. Cash App is an easy way to send and recieve money, and it's been downloaded over 100 million times on Android. The Amazon App Store is filled with spammy Cash App clones, but not the real thing.
5 Snapchat
You've probably heard about Snapchat. While it may not be the darling child of social media that it used to be, it is still an immensly popular app with over 1 billion (yes, billion) downloads on Android. If you want to keep your streaks alive from your Fire Tablet, you'll need to install the Play Store.
6 Tasker
Let's talk about a fan favorite in the Android community: Tasker. This classic app is ranked 13th in the Play Store's Top Paid chart, and it (or an equivalent) are nowhere to be found on Fire Tablets. If you love automating repetive tasks and doing some truly nerdy things with your devices, Tasker is a must-have.
7 Life360
Life360 is a popular app for families that like to keep track of each other. The company has gotten in trouble for selling precise location data on its users in the past, but it's still a popular service. The Amazon App Store has very few options

VIZ Media announced yesterday that their manga app has now added Marvel titles to the service. This is part of the collaboration between the giants of two distinct sides of the biggest comic book industries in the world, which began in 2022 when they combined the superpowered legacy of various Marvel heroes and the storytelling form of manga. This yielded a number of successful manga titles that feature Marvel superheroes in a way that they hadn't been seen before.
While Xbox Game Pass is set to gain a selection of fantastic Day-One releases in the back half of April, subscribers may want to act fast to play the six games leaving the service in the coming weeks. To offset the amount of titles the platform offers, Microsoft always removes a handful of games whenever it brings in a new selection for players to experience. While that might sound like a bad deal, it makes sense given the already massive catalog on offer and users can still pick up the departing games for a discount before they eventually leave.
