How to Download Opera for Kindle Fire Step-by-Step

Want to add Opera to your Kindle? You’re in the right place. Kindle Fire uses the Amazon Store, which complicates the process a little bit, but we’ll explain all you need to know, step-by-step.

How do I install the Opera browser on my Kindle?

1. Allow apps from 3rd parties

1. Swipe down from the top of your device’s screen and click the Settings or Gear icon.
   
2. Under the settings menu, scroll down and click on the Security option.
   
3. Under the Advanced section of your security menu, toggle on the switch for Apps from unknown sources.

Note that even though Opera isn’t natively listed in the Amazon Store, it’s completely safe to use it in your Kindle Fire.

When you’re done installing the browser, you can return and toggle off the Apps from unknown sources settings.
