App not compatible with fireTV

[Sam1]

hi, i don’t understand why my app is visible on the pc but i can’t see it in the amazon app store of my android device or in my fire tv stick;

i saw that among the compatible devices there is no compatibility with the amazon fire tv and with android, is compatible with only fire tablet
maybe i made a mistake in choosing “mobile web” rather than “android” during the App Submission.

if this is the reason… should I delete the app published and submit an Android app? or can i create another android app but with the same name as the “mobile web”

thanks

Hi Sam,

Take a look at our guide to make your app available on Fire TV:

How do I make my app available on Fire TV?

[Image] For Fire TV devices, the following manifest attribute identifies support for Fire TV: <uses-feature android:name="android.hardware.touchscreen" android:required="false" /> This attribute indicates that the touchscreen feature is false. Fire TV devices do not support touchscreens and multi-touch capabilities, whereas phones and tablets do. As a result, you must declare this android.hardware.touchscreen attribute to be false for the Appstore to classify your app as compatible with Fire…

Your app won’t automatically be available for Fire TV, you will need to target these devices.

As for whether your app is supposed to be a web app or an Android app, I would recommend talking to your app developer, as this depends what kind of app you’ve developed. If you accidentally created a web app, when you want to release an Andorid app, you will need to create another app, but you can use the same app title.
