This page will guide you through updating the apps on your Amazon Kindle Fire.
If you're experiencing any errors when trying to update Amazon Kindle Fire apps, kindly ensure that your Amazon account is set to the correct region. For example, if you're updating a UK app, your Amazon account has to be set to the UK. If your account is set to any other region (i.e. the USA), the app will not update.
Note: In this scenario, you will not be prompted with any error messages. The update will simply not download.
If you're having issues updating your apps because of an incorrect region setting, you may visit the guide below to help you change it:
