I keep getting ads every 10-15 minutes and they're just now popping up. It doesn't matter if I'm in an app or on the home screen, they're always the same ones and if I click on it leads to nowhere and heavily slows the system for a while. Please help, I don't know what to do to fix it. I don't know if it's a virus or what, or if it's worth having a professional look at.
Questa è una buona domanda?

Hey Michael,
When exactly did this start happening? Did you happen to install a new app around the same time that it started happening? As far as I know, Amazon only shows their ads on the lockscreen of Kindles with "Special Offers", and not on the home screen or in apps. I would try uninstalling your recently installed apps to see if that fixes the issue. If that doesn't help, I'd recommend trying to factory reset your tablet. This will reset your Kindle to how it was when you first got it, which should wipe away those advertisements.

It started about a month ago, I knew there were ads on the lock screen but I thought it was weird when I randomly started getting these. The only app that I had downloaded at the time was Pandora, so I will try and get rid of that. Thank you for the advice, if that doesn't work I will try resetting it.
Also note that Amazon "displays" ads in the notification area. They are typically items on sale in the store and from the offers section of your Kindle. They can be swiped away and cleared touching "clear all" just below your notifications. Also there are "no root" side loading solutions like at http://bit.ly/1m5fZfz , that will also remove Amazon only ads.
Same thing is happening on my fire hd - only every 10-15 seconds it starts up displaying adds for new apps.
how did you get rid of them paul
This is happening to my Fire HD 10 every 10secs. I can't even get into device settings because it's constantly popping up

My mom had same issue and I went to Apps & Notifications than look for Recently Opened Apps press see all apps and look for the apps that are causing trouble and press one at a time to uninstall them and like for my mom's Kindle Fire HD 10 that where causing trouble where Blood Pressure, Game Paradise, Classic FreeCell, and The Study Bible and funny thing is my mom does not read the bible and idk how it got on there and only once did I see it pop a video ad for a split sec and so far it seems fine expt now got those apps on home screen and I don't know what to do with them the ones causing trouble and hope this helps.
