The 2015 versions of the Amazon Kindle Fire have the ability to support expansion with a Micro SD Card slot. You can use an SD Card that holds up to 128GB of data with the device. Here’s how to insert or remove it.
- Locate the slot on the upper-right side of the device.
- Using your nail or a flat-head screwdriver, pry the slot open just a bit. Be careful not to pry it completely off on the wrong side. The door will stay attached on one end and swing open.
- Insert a MicroSD Card into the slot with the writing on the card facing upward toward the screen.
- Push it in using your nail until you feel it snap into place.

Need to remove SD card. It will not pop up. How do I get it out? Have Fire 10.1 from June of 2018.

Yes – Games will often NOT run on the SD Card. So it is worthless for those games which only run on SD cards. Wish I had known this before buying SD Card.
Mitch Bartlett says
If the card gets stuck, the slot or the card might be damaged. I had to take mine out using tweezers. I gripped the card with tweezers, gently pushed it inward, then wiggled it out.

All very well having these problems sent but a solution would be helpful. I too have got an SD card stuck and would like advise on how to remove it.

I also had problem installing micro SD card in my new kindlefire 10. I pushed it in until it clicked and it disappeared. It must have slid in side, the slot looks empty. Can I take this in to repair place close by. I was anxious to use my new kindle and disappointed I messed it up I hope I didn’t break t it still works but my 128 gb chip is stuck in there and would like to remedy this situation. I would really appreciate any help. Thank you

It was the best. I showed me where the slot was and how to open it. The other articles of this type just showed me how to use it.
