The Amazon for Tablets app is no longer supported

Spoke to Amazon customer service and they admitted it was an iissue that their "engineers are working to resolve, should be fixed in the next 24-48 hours". 24 hours to go.....

@Tuttle4077 Just use the Amazon Shopping app. Just like @GaryB82 said, it works just fine on my Tab s8+. https://play.google.com/store/search?q=amazon+shopping&c=apps

The Amazon for Tablets app is not working, not the same as the Amazon Shopping app. Per Amazon tech support, the for Tablet app is suppose to be working.

I'm confused then since amazon only has the shopping app, video app that I know of and they both work for me on my tablet never heard of a Amazon for Tablets app what is it suppose to do

@GaryB82 I'm sorry if you are confused. I am new to this community forum so I don't know if your status as a Samsung Ambassador exactly means? What I can tell you is that I have been using the Amazon for Tablets app across several of my past and current Samsung Galaxy tablets. I have never encountered this problem before, at least not since last week. Why would I be getting the message after I launch the same app I have been using for mean years, once it redirects me to the web page, that literally says, "The Amazon for Tablets app is no longer supported"?

I cannot believe Amazon would just suddenly discontinue support for the app I have been using for many many years, without so much as a notice. That and the fact that the Amazon support person acknowledged the problem, makes me believe there is indeed something afoot. I'll be reaching out to them again tomorrow to see what answer/story I get then.

Best Regards

After looking for it on Chrome it basically looks the same as the Amazon Shopping App so I figure they disconnected it so they wouldn't have to keep updating both apps
