Celestron Sky Portal On Kindle ( after downloading the Google Play Store )

[Stu1smartcookie]

Hi , I am buying a kindle fire tablet which i know comes basically with the Amazon software and has to be modified to run google apps. i'm  downloading the Google play store to hopefully enable the Sky Portal app to run.

Has anyone any info regarding if the Sky Portal App has been used on the kindle platform ?

I think it has to be sideloaded.

I installed Sky Safari Plus 6 on an old Kindle. I think they are pretty much the same app?

I used this method:

Yes I think that's the key , sky safari is basically the same as sky portal , the same program which bodes well . 

The kindles are so cheap and just big enough to make a difference over using the phone . Many thanks guys
