How to download app store on fire tablet

Since the Play Store isn't a system-level application on Fire tablets, the install process only applies to the device profile you've been using. If you want to add the Play Store for other users on the same device, the steps are a bit different, because Amazon's Fire OS won't let you have different versions of Play Services and the Play Store installed on each profile — thanks to Florian Wolters on Stack Overflow for pointing this out.

This is an extremely tedious process that will probably take longer than the original guide. Believe it or not, the below steps are still the easiest way to get the Play Store on other device profiles, with the fewest ways of screwing something up. The easiest way to get the Play Store on another user profile is to extract the APKs already installed on the first profile and install them on the second profile.

We only need to grab the files for Play Services and the Play Store. Because user profiles can't access the files from other profiles, you have to copy the two APKs somewhere else, log into the second profile, and copy them to the second profile's files. The easiest way to do this is using Swiss Transfer, an online tool for sending files.

Now, go back to the very start of this guide, and follow the instructions just like before. Once you install those two apps, you need to install the APKs you just copied from the first profile. Now reboot your tablet again, log into the second profile, and see if the Play Store works. If you encounter issues, take a look at the Troubleshooting section above.
