@davemason1972 It works fine on Amazon Fire. I have it working on my Fire HD 8, and I've seen others that have it working on their Fire tablets.
To do Google apps, you need to first install the Google Play Store, which will then let you install regular Android apps from Google's Play Store. Once you have the Play Store working, the Spark app installs and works the same as any regular Android device -- first connect to the Spark with generic bluetooth settings in tablet for audio, and then open the app and connect to the Spark within the app to control it. And log into your PG account for ToneCloud.
For the Google Play store, you need to download and sideload four packages, then you can just use the Play store to install and update apps as any regular Android device:
