1. STARTING UP

a) Check app/games Amazon Store availability

Check if the app/game you’re interested in is available before using the Amazon App.

Use a browser and your preferred search engine (e.g. google) and enter the keyword
“amazon app store <insert_game|app_name_here>”

  • If app/game is not available, there will be no result in the search. For example
    “amazon app store call of duty mobile
  • If app/game is available, it will show as the first result in the search. For example
    “amazon app store mobile legend

b) Install Amazon Appstore on your phone
