Anyone have an answer for not being able to update on Marshmallow? It was fine after the Feb upgrade, but now it won't update with the March 6.0 update. Searching the web it seems it's mostly G3 and G4 on Verizon that suddenly can't update the Kindle app - is there anyone who's had this problem and actually resolved it? I've tried clearing cache, safe mode, disabling, installation via Amazon store, enabling other sources for installing, and various combinations of those. Nothing works, I always end up with the screen below. I haven't tried a factory reset, holding out because I'm not wanting to do that for a single app unless it's absolutely necessary.

Have you tried uninstalling and reinstalling the Kindle app?

No, it's disable only. If I could, I would, and I desperately want to.

Negatory Ghost Rider. Also tried deleting download manager cache prior to removing account, no dice. Currently waiting on Amazon to reply on my ticket.

Might be unrelated, but I had issues updating Amazon apps (Kindle, Appstore etc..) after Marshmallow.

Found on another forum that you need to have Audible installed. I had it disabled. Once I enabled and updated Audible, I was able to update the others.

Directly related, actually. I also have Audible disabled; I just enabled it and updated, then hit update on the Kindle and now I'm good to go. Thanks!
