Like other Android tablets, the Kindle Fire lets you control music playback while you're using other apps. But it works differently on this tablet.

  • Tap the settings icon in the top right corner. You'll see the volume slider appear, along with playback controls to the left of the name of the song and album.
  • Press the pause button to stop playback.
  • Use the previous and next track buttons to move forward or backward in a playlist or album.
