SD CARD ineffective and causes glitches on fire 7
Bought this 8 GB version on prime Day due to low cost and supposed ability to add a 32 GB SD memory card. it turns out that if you try to add apps to memory card, that part of the app still goes into the limited internal memory . For me it did not really increase the total available internal memory due to very little being placed on the memory card . I would guess if you wanted to keep Many movies on the SD card that could be beneficial . However, using the memory card after two weeks , I started to have random glitches . For example , after turning on the tablet Facebook and messenger and Pandora would take about a minute to become usable . As today is the last day I could return it , I decided to delete everything from the memory card , reset the tablet , take out the memory card , and re-download the three apps mentioned above, but I have placed nothing on the memory card that I removed . All works well now; and I guess I will keep it due to the low prime Day price . However I have very little space if I wanted to store movies on the fire 7 . But, then you may have to deal with a glitchy tablet . Thankfully I have a fire 8 2016 with 32 GB internal memory , and have very few problems with that tablet , which I would recommend over the fire 7 . BTW, In regards to Amazon fire technical support: I found them very unhelpful and not very knowledgeable , which has made me rethink buying Amazon electronic products . Also, I asked three times to be transferred from overseas tech support to USA tech support and although I was told they were doing that, they never did . Amazon, to me, is not what it used to be a few years ago . I'm beginning to wonder why I'm a prime member...
