Use Amazon Underground apps offline?

Sorry if this has been covered before but I couldn't find anything specific on it. I had the Amazon App Store on my previous phone and could use the apps I downloaded w/o being signed into the app store. On my new phone (Moto X Pure), I downloaded the new Amazon Underground app along with all of the apps I had before and now it looks like I can't use any of them without actually being signed into Amazon Underground. When I sign out it asks if I'm sure I want to sign out of the app AND the apps on my device. Of course the old app never asked this. Anyone know if there's a workaround for this? I shouldn't have to stay signed in just to use an app...
 
Give it a bit longer. Maybe no one else who's read this is using Amazon, they're all using Play? Could try asking Amazon, see what they have to say. I don't use it myself, because amazon.cn doesn't do apps.

If you read it, it does say you won't be able to access cloud based apps. If those are the apps you have, that's the answer.

I still have the original Amazon app, but my downloads were paid for and installed on phone. They run in airplane mode. No wifi, no data and I can use them where I please.

Thanks. Didn't know that. That would explain it then. On my previous phone I was able to do the same as you. But that was with the old app store app and not the new one that replaced it. Oh well. Wonder if I can pull the apk for the old app from my other phone. Hmmm...
