Amazon Appstore Now Accepting HTML5 Web Apps – Making It Easy for Developers to Reach Millions of Kindle Fire and Android Customers Worldwide

Amazon today launched web app support in the Mobile App Distribution Program. Developers can now submit URLs for their HTML5 web apps and mobile websites and have Amazon offer that content to millions of Kindle Fire and Amazon Appstore customers in the same, convenient way as native apps. Developers can submit and distribute mobile web content without using third party software or doing any native app development, and they can take advantage of Amazon’s In-App Purchasing API for JavaScript, which provides them the option to build sales of digital goods into their apps. Customers can find great new web apps in the Amazon Appstore today, including Dream Pet Link from Spil Games, and IGN Video Game Reviews, News & Previews from IGN Entertainment. Developers can get started with the Amazon Mobile App Distribution Program by visiting https://developer.amazon.com/appstore.
