FAQs
What is the '2-year worry-free guarantee'?
The '2-year worry-free guarantee' means that if the tablet breaks for any reason within two years of purchase, Amazon will replace it for free. This includes accidental damage.
What content is included with Amazon Kids+?
Amazon Kids+ (formerly Fire for Kids Unlimited) provides access to thousands of age-appropriate books, games, videos, and Audible audiobooks from popular brands like Disney, Nickelodeon, and Sesame Street. A 1-year subscription is included with your purchase.
Can I use the tablet without Wi-Fi?
Yes, you can download content from Amazon Kids+ when connected to Wi-Fi and then access it offline. However, initial setup, new content downloads, and software updates require a Wi-Fi connection.
How do the parental controls work?
Parental controls allow you to manage screen time, set educational goals, filter content, and manage web access for your child's profile. You can adjust these settings remotely using the Amazon Parent Dashboard from your smartphone or directly on the tablet.
Is the storage expandable?
Yes, the tablet's 16 GB internal storage is typically expandable via a microSD card slot (card sold separately) for additional space for apps and media. Info needed: confirm microSD card slot availability.
What is the difference between this and a regular Fire 7 tablet?
The Kids Edition includes a durable kid-proof case, a 1-year subscription to Amazon Kids+, and a 2-year worry-free guarantee. The core tablet hardware is similar to the standard Fire 7.
Can adults use this tablet?
Yes, adults can create their own profiles on the tablet and use it as a standard Fire 7 tablet, accessing the regular Amazon Appstore, web browser, and other features.
Troubleshooting
Tablet won't turn on or respond.
Ensure the tablet is fully charged using the original power adapter. Press and hold the power button for 20-30 seconds to perform a force restart.
Content isn't downloading or playing offline.
Check your Wi-Fi connection. Ensure you have sufficient storage space. For offline play, verify that the content was fully downloaded while connected to Wi-Fi. Some content may have specific streaming rights.
Parental controls aren't working as expected.
Ensure the tablet's software is up to date. Verify parental control settings in the Amazon Parent Dashboard are correctly configured for the specific child profile. Sync the tablet with the Parent Dashboard after making changes.
Tablet is running slowly.
Close unused apps running in the background. Clear cached data for apps. Consider uninstalling apps or deleting downloaded content that is no longer used to free up storage space. A factory reset might be necessary as a last resort.
