There are no Google specific features (I'm running it on a Firestick 4k). Others are successfully running it on Fire tablets. You aren't the first to report an issue on Fire HD 10, but we were never able to figure out a pattern. What generation is it? Without having a device it is very difficult to solve this as Amazon quit supplying emulators for their devices.
I have few Amazon devices of different generations and size. I'll test on those as well when I get a chance. The specific one that I encountered the issue on is:
Fire HD 10 (9th generation) running FireOS 7.3.2.9
I do NOT have the Googleplay store installed - that sometimes drags along the infrastructure to support google features.
Wrt to Google features. I'm not certain, but it's my understanding that the features don't need to be in use by the app. This came up in a discussion with a different app swiftyfin - a relatively new Jellyfin client on github as well.
I don't have Play store installed on my FireTV either, so it has nothing to do with that. Were you able to test on any other devices?

Unsigned APK can be ignored, we will remove this build as it shouldn't be used. So to summarize: Amazon Fire HD 10 (11th generation), Fire OS 7.3.3.0, release 1.0.12.0 Signed APK, starts normally presents config page, GOOD

This is great info, but I'm not seeing a pattern or what to do about it :(.
Two more hardware devices to add. Both of the devices required updating so I tested the APK on each iteration as I upgraded. Based on the results I'm seeing, the pattern is that the FireOS version and Generation of the Amazon Fire HD 10 and maybe the 8 is not the issue.
The only modern device (the 5 inch tablet excluded) that has a problem is an HD 10 (gen 9). Given that a Gen 7 has no issues I'm suspecting that the problem is an interaction with installed software more than the device itself. At some point I'll reset my Gen 9 and see if the problem goes away.

Can this be closed then? Not sure what else to do here.
Yes please close it. Thank you. I'm successfully running immichframe on an Amazon Fire HD 10 Gen 11 and it's working well. Thank you for the software.
Did we ever figure out the issue? Was it a app loader?
Did we ever figure out the issue? Was it a app loader?
No, sadly. I uninstalled Nova Launcher and a few other apps. I'm not ready to wipe that machine to try it out from clean. I'll try again when I finally do that on the Gen 9 Tablet.
Version
1.0.12.0
Deployment Method
Amazon fire HD 10 Amazon degoogled Android
Description
The application doesn't attempts to start up and then exits immediately. Apparently this is common in Android apps that have a dependency on Google specific features (Chromecast?)
Amazon fire devices are inexpensive and common enough. It would be great to see this tool supported on that platform.
Reproduction
Install latest APK on an amazon fire. start it up and watch it crash.
Expectations
The app should run normally.
