I just received my new Fire Max 11 and started setting it up. I'm a little daunted by having to re-download so many apps that were on my 10-inch Fire tablet--I thought everything I'd gotten from the Amazon Appstore would magically appear, and I'd just have to add my sideloaded apps!

While my brain knew a 1-inch larger screen wasn't really going to make much difference, I still was surprised how little difference there is. But my 10-inch was five years old, so I'm glad I upgraded while it still had a good trade-in value.

ETA: Well, my bad. I had no idea that my apps were indeed being downloaded from the cloud in the background, as there was no download icon on the screen.
