I used to have the Simpsons tapped out on my kindle fire but I deleted it and tried to reinstall it but it isn't on Amazon play store any more why???? Please bring it back!
June 2016
Yesterday there was an error (I don't know on whose part) and an upcoming update to the game was posted on the Amazon app store. To fix the error they removed the game from the store.
You might try contacting the people at the Amazon app store and ask them to restore the correct update, but I have no idea how to reach them.
Finally! A legitimate reason to use the spoiler thingy! The upcoming update is:

Thanks! I just contacted Amazon with the info you gave us but was told the issue - at least for me! - is that it's no longer available for my Kindle model (Fire), which is very annoying and quite surprising. I mean, were the game from an indie developer or someone else with little resource, I'd understand, but EA!!
Dear EA, can you please fix this? I can't buy a new Kindle just to play The Simpsons - I can't buy a new Kindle to save my life! and although I can live without the game (and probably should), I don't want to. Please help. Birthday is coming up. Maybe let's keep the fact that it's a 31st between us cause it's pretty sad considering I'm here begging for a game and claiming I can't afford a cheap device. That's what happens when you choose to work in the creative industries!
Cheers

Hi- re the Simpsons Tapped Out not being available/disappeared on Amazon UK yet.
A few days ago (6th/7th June 2016) I got an update that I don't think I should have and it had
content on it that would be a spoiler for possible future play so I am not going to mention what the theme was.
The upshot is I had a new front page with the finger and I got some new content, tasks, buildings and characters.
Then I started getting the "update want it now" messages and could not update as none was available on kindle fire via
Amazon. Since then I have been unable to play at all
I spoke with lovely EA rep Charles yesterday (9th June) who advised me that some content had been accidentally released
early to UK Kindle users and as a result they had requested Amazon take down the game temporarily while they do a fix.
He advised they are aware of the issue and it has not been mentioned on the site yet as it is seen as a relatively new issue.
I asked how long before the fix as I am going crazy lol and he said normally it takes a few days to fix and then it is down to
Amazon ( who invariably take a few more days to check the content will work on all Kindle devices before releasing- sigh )
I have also spoken to Amazon who thought there was no issue until they really looked into it and have confirmed they
received the request from EA to temporarily remove the access.
So I shall cry into my pillow and hope my friends on the game do not think I have gone lazy on the visiting front with a
hope against hope that by way of an apology, EA are working day and night to get the game up and running again for us
and that they can ask Amazon to rush the access to the downloading of the game.
I hope that helps to explain why there has been an issue.
