How to Add Kindle Fire to My Amazon Account

When you first get your Kindle Fire, you gotta enter your Amazon account info so you can register it and do cool stuff like buy new things and use the Appstore.

Maybe you didn’t put in your Amazon account details, or maybe someone else registered their account on your Kindle Fire. Either way, you gotta add your own account so you can really enjoy your device.

Lucky for you, adding your Kindle Fire to your Amazon account is super easy. I’ll explain how to do it right here.

Adding My Kindle Fire to My Amazon Account

If you didn’t set up an Amazon account when you first got your Kindle Fire, don’t worry. You can do it manually. Just remember, the process is a little different depending on which version of Kindle Fire you have, and you need to be connected to the internet.

If you have the first generation Kindle Fire, follow these steps:

my account

  1. To start, tap on the ‘Settings’ option. You can find it at the top-right corner of your screen, denoted by a gear icon.
  2. From the dropdown menu, choose ‘More’.
  3. Select ‘My Account’.
  4. Next, click on ‘Register’.
  5. Enter your Amazon account information when prompted.

If you own a second (HD) or third generation (HDX) Kindle Fire, follow these steps:

  1. On the home screen, swipe down from the top to access the quick access bar.
  2. Select ‘More’ for the 2nd generation or ‘Settings’ for the 3rd generation.
  3. Tap on ‘My Account’.
  4. Choose ‘Register’.
  5. Enter your Amazon account username and password.
  6. Select ‘Register’ again.

After registering your account, it will appear under the ‘My Devices’ tab on your Amazon profile page. From there, you can download any purchased content to your device or buy new items directly.

Replacing an Existing Kindle Fire Account

Sometimes, you may want to replace one Kindle Fire account with another. This could be because you purchased a used Kindle Fire or received it as a gift. In any case, it’s easy to deregister an account and add your own.

If you wish to deregister an account, follow steps 1-3 from the previous section. Instead of selecting ‘Register’, choose ‘Deregister’ to remove the current account. Then, proceed with the next steps.

Note: When you deregister an account, all data associated with it will be removed from the device. This includes downloaded books, audiobooks, apps, and other content belonging to the previous account. However, the content will still be available on the Cloud. If the account registers to another Kindle Fire, all files can be downloaded again.

How to Check Your Amazon Account Devices

If you want to confirm whether your Kindle Fire is registered to your account, you can check on the official Amazon website. Here’s how:

  1. Go to Amazon’s web page.
  2. Click on ‘Hello, Sign In’ at the top-right corner of the page.
  3. Sign in to your account.
  4. Enter your credentials.
  5. Click on ‘Manage Your Content and Devices’.
  6. Tap on the ‘Devices’ tab located at the top of the screen.
  7. Check if your Kindle Fire appears in the list of devices.

Your Content Is Secure

If you ever want to upgrade to a newer version of Kindle Fire or switch to a different Fire OS device, don’t worry about losing your content.

Thanks to your Amazon account, all your purchased items stay stored in the Cloud, allowing you to easily transfer them to a new device. So even if you plan on changing devices soon, go ahead and buy new books and audio without hesitation. You’ll still be able to enjoy them on your new Fire device.
