sorry if this was already asked in a thread about the new app for droids, apple products etc...
did we find out if the app will work on a Kindle fire?
thanks
 
No one knows for sure. Kindle Fire is technically an Android tablet, so give it a shot and see what happens :)
 
and then let us know!! :)
 
They mentioned that it MIGHT work but if it does that it might appear smaller (similar to the size that is shown on an adroid phone). There really wasn't an actual answer as in yes or no.
 
We will know very soon! Hooray!
 
I have a Kindle Fire... and an iPhone... and I have been mulling this over and over for days now. There is no way of knowing if it will work on the Fire until it comes out, if you can get it on there, chances are it will be smaller or made bigger, but blurred because the app was not delevoped for Android Tablets.... which if they did it for the phone why not the tablet? But anyways. If perchance it does end up working on the Fire, my concern is the slight delay on the touch screen. I have found that on the fire vs the i -anything I have to press a little harder to get things to work, aside from turning the page of an ebook... that seems to be super sensitive. But when I use an app on my Fire, it annoys me that it isn't as fast as an Apple product (touch wise) My other concnern is the screen for the Fire is smaller than the ipad, and I have terrible eye sight even with corrective lenses. I don't want to have to hold it up to my face to see what I'm doing. So half of me wants to go buy ipad... and the other half says don't do it, figure it out on what you have. :(

Then, I'm wondering if we will be able to have the app on multiple devices... as in I'm not going to carry my tablet around in my purse to take orders... can I have it on my phone too in case someone randomly says "order me that now."
 
One of my recruits told me she downloaded the app on an Android tablet, not the Fire, but an android. THere wasn't anything on it yet, it was a couple weeks ago, but she was able to download it.

That's interesting.... I wonder how she did that.
