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 TV devices.
However, this classification isn’t automatic. When you upload a binary designed for Fire TV devices, you must still manually select which devices your binary file is compatible with in the Developer Console. You can do this during Step 2: Target Your App of the app submission process by clicking Edit supported devices.
For details, see Supported devices documentation.
