When you add a new device to Google Play, you will have access to previously purchased (downloaded) apps, movies, music, books, and other purchases. To quickly add a device, sign in with the same Google account. Downloading the Play Store and accessing Android apps on your Amazon Fire tablet takes a little work. You cannot add iOS devices (iPhone, iPad) or Windows to Google Play Store.

  7. 7 Install Google USB Driver manually if needed. If the computer does not recognize the tablet and the drivers are not installed, install them yourself.
    • Download Google USB Driver from: developer.android.com/studio/run/win-usb.html#.
    • Save the file with the ZIP extension. Extract the contents of the file by double-clicking on it and selecting the "Extract" option.
    • Open Device Manager. To do this, click ⊞ Win and enter devmgmt.msc.
    • Find the "USB Controllers" section, then right-click on "Fire" and select the "Update Drivers" option.
    • Enter the path to the extracted files.
  8. 8 Download the script that is used to install the Google Play Store. It will execute a long list of commands so you don't have to do it yourself. It does not contain viruses or malware. Go to rootjunkysdl.com/files/?dir=Amazon%20Fire%205th%20gen and download the file "Amazon-Fire-5th-Gen-Install-Play-Store.zip".
  9. 9 Extract the ZIP file. Double-click the file and select Extract All. A new folder will appear in the Downloads section. All necessary files will be located in it.
  10. 10 Open a new folder and run the script. Open the folder that was created after extracting the script files. Double-click to open the "1-Install-Play-Store.bat" file. After that, the Command Prompt will appear.
  11. 11 Turn on ADB on your tablet. After you run the script on your computer, you will be asked to enable the ADB function on your tablet. You will have to unblock it to confirm the request.
  12. 12 Start the installation on your computer. To install Google Play Store and Google Play Services, press in the Command Prompt 2.
  13. 13 Restart your tablet when asked to do so. Once the installation is complete, the Command Prompt window will ask you to restart your tablet. Hold down the power button on the tablet, and then press "OK" to confirm shutdown. When the tablet goes off, turn it on again.
  14. 14 When the tablet restarts, launch the Google Play Store. You will be asked to log into your account.
  15. 15 Sign in to your Google account. Sign in with the same account you use for your Gmail email service on your other Android device.
  16. 16 Wait for the store to update. Google Play Store and Google Play Services will begin the update process, which can take anywhere from 10 to 15 minutes. You won't notice any changes until you exit and reopen the store.
  17. 17 Use Google Play Store to install various applications. Now that you've installed the store and signed in to your account, there's nothing stopping you from downloading and installing any app, including Chrome and Hangouts.
    • If you are asked to update Google Play Services, confirm the update and you will be redirected to the app page. Click on the "Update" button to update the application.
