Also would your current program work on a Kindle Touch?

anDGS can be side loaded on a fire and has a sgf reader/editor supporting annotations and markup

What the kindle fire needs to be perfect is a good GO app for playing online. I don't understand, there is a Chinese chess app, Mancala... come on, even gomoku... but no GO app???

I just don't understand.

Come on KGS or IGS, do something about it! Please!!!

There is a Kindle Fire compatible app for Go. It is AI's Go, and it uses the Aya software. It's pretty barebones (doesn't read sgf files, suggest moves, etc.) but works just fine. There is even a free version (Go Free) but the full version is only 4 bucks. I use it daily when I don't have internet or time for a human opponent.

Just do a search on the Amazon app store.

Thanks, I will definitely give that a try although I'll need to get a friend with a smart phone to download it for me.

Just download it from my website directly to your device then open it with a file browser. that should ask you if you want to install (I haven't done this on a fire but it works on other devices)

That worked perfectly. Thanks!

I just wish more app authors would provide direct links for their software. It's appalling what has to be done though Google Play, I can't even dl panda-tetsuki.

Thanks for confirming that this works on the fire. This should make it easy for others to use the app.
