This is strange: SimplyE is in Amazon’s Appstore for Android (something Android users can install on their devices), but the listing says it isn’t compatible with my Fire devices. Presumably you have to download an .apk and install it that way.

And even though Amazon has this fantastic relationship with Overdrive, the Libby app isn’t available from Amazon’s Appstore for Fire tablets: you have to use the creaky old Overdrive app.

Hoopla, Kanopy, Axis360, and RBdigital are available directly for Fire tablets.

Maybe it will show up in the near future.
