Getting into the Kindle Fire Store

Our magazine has a new android app that looks great (replacing a bad old version)--how do we get Amazon to ping it, test it, and put it in the kindle fire store? Support only sends automated response letters on unrelated subjects. Anyone had luck with contacting Amazon about something like this? The new version has been tested on a Kindle Fire (sent via email) and it works great, but we want it in the Kindle Fire store. Thanks!

Hi Bibarch, You can use our device targeting feature to select the compatible devices for your app. While submitting an app, you get option to target each apk for multiple devices. Amazon device targeting enables you to take a single app and target specific APK's to specific Amazon devices, as well as target single, general APK that covers all other non-Amazon Android devices. Once you select Kindle devices as target for your app, it will be reviewed on those devices. Please refer Device Targeting section in below link for more information. https://developer.amazon.com/help/faq.html#DeviceTargeting
