How does one load Amazon apps to the Galaxy S5?

I have dozens of Android apps for my Kindle Fire. How, exactly, would I load them on the new Samsung Galaxy S5? That's the model I'm pre-ordering.

The display on the S5 is 5.1" and used in landscape mode would be close to the 7" of the Kindle Fire and the 6" of the Kindle PW. However, the S5 is only 3" wide to fit in my pocket. It appears that mobile phones, watches and tablets are moving closer together.

Its got a huge amount of new features not seen before including a linked smart watch, Gear 2, which links with it for displaying apps and making and receiving telephone calls. There will probably be quite a wait for new apps which work with that smart watch.

It would be great if I could read an eBook on that smart watch and not even take out the S5 from my pocket. However, I'm pre-ordering the Galaxy S5 now for delivery April 11 and I'll wait to order the Gear 2 Watch for Christmas. I don't want too much learning overload at one time.
