Amazon Appstore QR Code Generator | Fire OS App Links

Fire OS devices don't ship with Google Play, so an Amazon Appstore QR code is the direct route to installation for Kindle Fire and Fire TV owners. One scan takes them straight to your listing.

What is this QR code?

An Amazon Appstore QR code encodes a link to your app's listing in the Amazon Appstore, which opens the install page on Android and Fire OS devices, including Kindle Fire tablets and Fire TV.

Best use cases

  • Promoting a reading app directly to Kindle Fire owners.
  • Linking a media app install page for Fire TV users.
  • A children's education app targeted at budget Fire tablets.
  • A game separately optimized for Fire OS with its own Appstore listing.

How to generate your QR code

1

Select 'Amazon Appstore' as your QR code type.

2

Paste the link to your app's Amazon Appstore listing.

3

Customize the colors and shape if desired.

4

Download your QR code and add it to packaging or promotional material.

Frequently Asked Questions

What happens if someone with Google Play scans this code?

The link still opens via the Amazon Appstore app if it's installed; otherwise it falls back to a web page listing for the app.

Why not just use a Google Play QR code for everyone?

Fire OS is a fork of Android without Google Mobile Services, so devices like Kindle Fire and Fire TV can't install from Google Play at all — Amazon Appstore is their only option.
