Google Play Apparently it does not have android market / google play? Is there a workaround? How does one get apps?

For now you can use amazon app store. Tried many ways to get google play and flash player installed. so far I have not had any luck. Hopefully there will be some of the modding communty getting involved soon, so the device can be rooted which will give superuser permissions to install the much needed apps.

Doesn't come with them, there is a workaround. You can root the device and install Clockworkmod. This allows you to install Google Play. You can use internet tutorials to learn how to do this (doesn't take too long). You can always restore the device back to factory settings, if you haven't bricked it (which is really hard to do).

without flash, no Hulu or Netflix...in theory, it may be possible to get FLASH to work, but I have failed so far. Thanks to Costco's generous return policy, I can play with it for another month, then make the keep or return decision

Found a working version of flashplayer: com.adobe.flashplayer_111115007.apk Took a little time to find it via Google and the download & install. But now YouTube, Netflix and other web videos that I've tried work fine.

As mentioned in my review, this device does not include Google Play. There is more than one video tutorial explaining how to get access to it, but I couldn't figure it out. I think I have the files on the tablet, but can't understand what to do with them! All of my downloaded apps came from Amazon.

I don't know, you may be able to get a app that will let you download from the Playstore.

It does not have Google Play Store but you can add www.appslib.com and download a lot. Forgot what all it comes with but for the price it was a good buy.

You can download Apps from other stores but Google Play is not supported. Cheers!

Hi Kathryn - yes, we have been able to download apps from the Google Play store. But a few months ago, the ability to stay connected to the internet became an issue and it is pretty much unusable (my husband no longer even tries to use it). So your problem could be sustaining an internet connection. Haven't found any solution to that problem, personally.

Hello Sharon,Thanks for your interest! There is a sticker on the box that says "Android market app which enables full access to complete Google Play store has been preinstalled." We hope this helps.

No, this phone has some samsung operating system. and there are no Google Play and other android apps. This phone has Facebook and other apps but they are not android apps.

One thing I forgot is that the astroid market is pathetic. It only has about 9 apps last check and they aren't that good. I've tricked the Google play market into thinking that my device is a HTC 1X+ using market helper allowing me access to most of the apps on play market. That being said it's well worth the work and effort requires to unlock it.

It did not come with Google Play. However, you can purchase and install the app. I haven't had any problems downloading and installing new apps. So far it is still running and performing great!

Yes, it comes with Google play, under the book tab. You can get free or pay for downloads. Google play cards are sold almost anywhere now.

Pretty much everything on the Google Play store is available for download, although that's up to the app developer on what is free. There are free games and reader apps.

I installed the Google play store no problem. You may have to do it from. All but easy to get with installed browser.
