that is what I read elsewhere, but It would be a huge hassle if my KF fire messed up, I'd really like someone who has actually make the change to confirm that it was trouble free.
the reason for changing is that I set up KF amazon account with my main gmail account, and that's having all eggs in 1 basket if the google account ever got compromised.
so I am thinking of having a dedicated email account for amazon shopping.tablet/apps which I don't use anywhere else on-line
i had a 2nd amazon account just for kindle books into kindle for PC - not linked to any table t& someone , somehow got into that, registered 2 x "android devices", bought 10,000 coins... huge row with amazon over that. I got the money back & the account reset but they absolutely refuse to say what devices were registered, from what country. what IP addresses, what device SNs.. i.e. none of the info I wanted to help determine how this was done. I think maybe that email account got hacked & used to do password resets, as I found the fraud only when locked out of my own account.
so that's the additional reason to have a specific amazon -only email for the main account that I use with tablet & apps.
