Dangerous Apps on Amazon App Store?

[NewbAndroidUser]

Hi all, I've got an Android tablet here that didn't come with Google's Play Store so I need to find a source for apps that I know are 100% genuine.



I thought Amazon's App Store was safe and then I came across this and it has made me really worried to the point where I haven't downloaded any apps. I reported it to Amazon a few weeks ago and it's still up.


Link:

Amazon.com: FoxFire - FireFox Client: Appstore for Android


I've got an Android phone that came with Google's Play Store, but this tablet didn't. Can I somehow use the Android phone's Google Play Store to download apps for the tablet?


Thanks for any help.

Not sure if im missing something but Play and Amazon are about as safe as it gets. The odd bad thing slips through the net but compared to on a Windows PC you're pretty safe on android :thumbup:

Don't install it then mate

I'm mobile at the moment so I can't post a link. I'd you search Phandroid for play you should be able to find the apk to install. You may need to going Google play services as well.

Well, take a look. The uploader didn't even spell 'App' correctly.

Looks like a bootleg version of Firefox, likely it's from China, I suggest reporting it to Amazon.
