I was approved through SNAP and received the Fire HD 10 at no cost. The screen is bright and large enough for reading my books and watching church services.

Approval took about a week because I had to resend my proof of address. Once that was fixed the Fire HD 10 arrived quickly and works well for video calls with my doctor.

The tablet is fast enough for the news, emails, and sports streaming. I only wish I could install some Google apps directly, but the Amazon store still covers the basics.

Frequently asked questions about the Free Amazon Fire HD 10
Is the Amazon Fire HD 10 really free
For many applicants who meet the income or program rules, the Fire HD 10 can be provided at a final cost of $0. Some partners charge a small $10.01 discounted copay. Taxes and government fees may apply in certain locations. Only one discounted device is allowed per eligible household.
Do I need to already have internet at home to use the tablet
The Fire HD 10 connects over Wi Fi. You can use home internet, public Wi Fi, or a hotspot from another device. Some partners bundle a low cost internet plan, but this page focuses on the tablet device only.
Is this a brand new tablet or refurbished stock
In most cases you receive a new Fire HD 10 in sealed packaging with cable and power adapter. In rare situations, a like new replacement unit may be used to avoid shipping delays, but it must meet the same functional standard.
Will this affect my existing Lifeline or ACP style benefits
You are allowed only one discounted service per eligible household. If you already have a Lifeline or similar benefit with another provider, you may need to transfer that benefit instead of opening a second one. Our team explains any transfer steps during the application.
Can I install Google Play Store on the Amazon Fire HD 10
The Fire HD 10 is designed to use the Amazon Appstore. Google Play is not officially supported on this device. Most popular streaming, reading, and communication apps are still available through the Amazon Appstore.
What documents should I prepare before I start the Fire HD 10 application
Have a government issued ID, a recent proof of address such as a bill or benefit letter, and one document that shows your eligibility for a qualifying program or your household income. The names and addresses should match across these documents to avoid a denial.
How long does approval and shipping usually take for the Fire HD 10
Many applications are reviewed within three to seven business days, depending on how complete the documents are. After approval, most tablets ship with tracking in another three to seven business days. Holidays and high volume periods can extend these time frames.
What if I prefer a different model such as the Xiaomi Redmi Pad Pro
Some partners allow a choice between different tablet models when stock allows it. If you prefer an Android style experience, you can review the Xiaomi Redmi Pad Pro option and discuss your preference with support after you submit the basic eligibility form.
Important, benefits and device availability can change at any time. Always read the final terms on your application and keep a copy for your records.
