10 Kindle Fire HD Tips and Tricks

Like the Nexus 7, the Kindle Fire HD has a front facing camera that’s meant to be used for video calls using Skype. But there’s not an obvious way to use it to take pictures or record personal videos. Here’s how to access the hidden Camera App and shoot video and pictures up to 1080p. You can even take panoramic photos. Sweet!

While the it’s meant to be used as a media consumption device, you can still be productive on your Kindle Fire. To keep track of what’s going on in between episodes of Game of Thrones, set up your email account on it.

The Fire makes it easy to stream and download videos, music and other media, but sometimes you want to listen to what you already own. Here’s how to add music files from your PC. You can also add your own videos to it.

If you want to be more productive, and the onscreen keyboard isn’t enough, connect a Bluetooth keyboard for faster typing.

If you want to sell or regift your Fire HD, make sure to erase everything and restore it to back to factory settings.
