Here's Why Amazon Won't Let You Buy Books on Kindle App for Android Anymore
Google wants a 15% cut of digital content purchases people make in apps sold on the Play Store. Amazon has told customers they can buy e-books on the company's website instead of through the Android app. Amazon let customers know on Tuesday they can no longer rent or buy books or pay for Kindle Unlimited subscriptions using the Kindle app. In an email, the company explained people will have to pay for the digital content on a web browser and then access the books through their app's digital library. The change was necessary "to remain in compliance with updated Google Play Store policies," Amazon said in the email.
