Recently, the OverDrive app was discontinued. In its place is the Libby App. Until recently, Kindle Fire users were unable to access the app on their devices. Luckily, this has changed!
The Kindle Fire app is now available for download in the Amazon App Store. The Kindle Fire Libby App is available for Kindle Fire models made in 2020 or newer. It is also available on the following models:
Device | Year |
Fire HD 10 | 2017 |
Fire HD 8 | 2018 |
Fire HD 10 | 2019 |
Fire HD 8 | 2020 |

Fire HD 10 Plus | 2021 |
Fire 7 | 2022 |
Fire HD 8 | 2022 |

When visiting the Amazon Libby App download page, there is a box listing if your model of Kindle Fire is compatible with the app.
After downloading the Libby App on your Kindle Fire, there is an option to read e-books either on the app itself or on the built in Kindle app on the Kindle Fire. For more information on how to deliver e-books to your Kindle App, check out our helpful Tech Tips article.
