The docs app will be removed in november 2022
I have had a notification on my Amazon Fire "The docs app will be removed in november 2022" Replaced by Files App ? Last edited by Little.Egret; 10-20-2022 at 10:09 PM. |

Just a guess, but perhaps they will replace the separate Books and Docs apps with the regular Kindle for Android app that does both.

The Fire and Android apps have been virtually indistinguishable (including ability to access personal documents) for some time now. The only difference is that Android app doesn't support TTS, and (now) it lacks ability for in-app purchase (a blessing actually). Current Fire Kindle app version: 14.67.100 Current Android Kindle app version: 8.67.0.100 Last edited by tomsem; 10-21-2022 at 09:35 PM. |

I wish they'd just do it already. I've been getting deprecation warnings, and now removal warnings for the Docs app over six months now!

But we can still access documents, right? Will just be under a different name?

I never get notices on this with my Fire, which I turn on daily, so this thread is the first I'm hearing about this.

Both Docs and Files are file managers. Docs is being replaced by Files. Amazon calls it 'an improvement'. You may have another term for it.
