Not Working on Fully Kiosk Browser Fire HD 8 #32

I have the sidebar card working great on Chrome, but it won't work on my Fire HD 8 using Fully Kiosk Browser. I have read that it's likely due to the Fire Tablet running a lower version of Webview. It seems that can't be upgraded. Other custom cards also struggle with older versions of Webview.

I had the same issue with the 'kiosk' card, but found a workaround to define the 'type' as 'js' instead of 'module'. That same workaround didn't work for sidebar-card.

Are there any workaround for this card? Has anyone managed to make this work running fully-kiosk on a Fire Tablet?

I have a Fire HD 8 Plus and it's working fine. You just need to side-load a few things :)

What did you need to side load?

Just look for Fire Toolbox V15.0, in XDA Developers. You can remove a lot of stuff and also install Google needed things, like Chrome and so.

I am closing this issue since it is not related to the development of the module.
