Google Play

Installing on a Kindle Fire

You might be asking yourself why the Book Cave Direct app is not available in the Amazon app store. Well, our app allows you to download free ebooks without going through Amazon. That makes us a competitor to Amazon, and Amazon won’t allow apps that compete with their business.
  1. Swipe down from the top of the screen.
  2. Swipe down again to fully extend the menu.
  3. Tap the settings icon on the bottom right corner.
  4. Tap Security & Privacy.
  5. Tap Apps from Unknown Sources.
  6. Tap Silk Browser.
  7. Turn on Allow from this source if not already on.
  8. Return to the Silk Browser, which should still be open to this page.
  9. Tap here to download the Book Cave Direct app.
  10. Tap Download anyway on the warning screen. (No, Amazon is not actually looking inside the app to see if it is harmful. This is a generic message.)
  11. Swipe down from the top of the screen to watch your download.
  12. Once the download completes, tap BookCaveDirect.2.0.0.apk.
  13. Tap the INSTALL button.
  14. Tap the OPEN button.

Installing on an old Kindle Fire

If you have an older Kindle Fire, you can try one of the apps below. Note that these apps are no longer being maintained, but neither is your old Kindle. The apps worked at the time the “old” Kindle was still new, and they should still work today. Use the information below to find the closest match to your Kindle.
