In general, the Android apps update way too often -- but the Amazon store app that you can't delete wanting an update every day is a little annoying.

It's annoying
Z30STA100-2/10.3.2.2204
I've been using Snap over the Amazon store, meaning I've never opened the app, and it hasn't asked for an update. I was actually considering signing in to it, but I'm glad now that I haven't.
Thread moved from Z30 Forum to Android Apps Forum where it belongs, as it is not a Z30-specific issue.
Yes, it is annoying.
There's always a tiny bit of excitement that maybe ---just maaaaybe--- another app or game is updating, but nope it's almost the Amazon shopping app. And when it's not, it's almost always just Amazon Appstore itself.
And almost never is there a changelog.
I haven't bothered to find out, but I bet Fire devices update automatically in background, so Amazon just pushes updates whenever it wants for any minor fix/change.
Anyway, a minor annoyance, but one I can live with.
Glad it's not just me. But i also get annoyed with Android app updates. My guess is the updates are security related.

You are referring to the Amazon Store or The Amazon App Store?
Both can be removed using Ghost Commander

I could not remove Amazon store (regular store, not Appstore) with Ghost Commander (said FAILED) - but it did uninstall it, so as long as I don't reinstall, should be no more update notices.

The problem is that even if you manage to uninstall the useless stupid Amazon app you won't be able to use some free apps that require Amazon login, hate this. So far I just have removed notifications from Amazon cos it looks like it needs almost daily updates, how stupid is that?
You can uninstal them with this, but I have yet to find a way to remove the icon.
