Title: Alexa App
Post by: willow2670 on December 29, 2017, 09:11:32 am
I cannot download the Alexa App to my Samsung tab version 5.0.2.
It says 'Your device isn't compatible with this device'.

Any suggestions please?

Had the same problem, except my Samsung Tablet Android version is 5.0.2.  What I found is that the Alexa App is not compatible with all versions of Android OS, even if it is 5 and above. So, after trying to get help from Amazon, which did not go well, I decided to go back to the version that was running on my Tablet before I tried upgrading. I searched for the old version of the apk and found: https://www.apkmonk.com/app/com.amazon.dee.app/
This place has all the versions. I tried the newest with the same results. I worked back until I found one that worked.
 The one that worked for my tab was the Oct 25 2017. I downloaded and saved that copy, in case I run into this problem again after an update, I will have a baseline.
Hope this helps. Good Luck.

If you have a computer, download the Alexa browser app.
