Has anyone been able to make Quickbooks Time app work / install on an Amazon Fire Tablet?

Our company uses these tablets for our other time keeping app and these tablets are cheap and great for Clock In / Clock Out, but the QB Time app isn't available on the Amazon App Store. The Fire tablets don't have access to Google Play store, though they run Android system on them. I've tried some work arounds to install the Google Play Store, but have not been successful.  I'm trying to use an Amazon Fire 7 Tablet - 2022 release date.  

Thanks in advance for any guidance!

Greetings, @dandrade. It is a pleasure to have you here in the Community forum. We appreciate your interest in installing the QuickBooks Time app on your Amazon Fire Tablet. I'd be glad to provide you with the necessary insights on how to proceed so you can efficiently track your employees' time entries.

 

Amazon Fire devices come with a built-in configuration that restricts the download of applications from third-party sources, other than the Amazon App Store. This limitation is the reason why installing Google Play on these devices may fail. To proceed with installing Google Play, the configuration setting must be disabled on the device. For this purpose, it is recommended to seek the assistance of an IT expert, who can guide the necessary steps to follow.

 

Once you've successfully downloaded the QuickBooks Workforce (formerly QuickBooks Time mobile app). You may open these articles that will guide you in tracking time entries in QuickBooks:
