7. Listening to Music > Browsing and Searching

Browsing and Searching

Once your music is on the Fire (or within streaming range of it), head to the Music Library to start listening. Your first decision is whether to look behind tab #1 (Cloud) or tab #2 (Device). Tap either one to explore it, but keep in mind that these are separate collections. There’s no way, in other words, to look at all the albums you own—you have to decide whether to look online or on device.

Note

Switching between Cloud and Device is simple enough, since those two tabs are visible on almost every screen in the Music Library. But wouldn’t it be easier if Amazon subscribed to the Unified Theory of Music, in which all songs unite? Probably, but that’s not how things work on the Fire, for now, anyway.

On the plus side, both areas are organized identically. Playlists, Artists, Albums, and Songs are the main browsing categories in both tabs. Each gets its own tour in the following sections.
