Fire tablet kids video calls — a simpler way to call approved family on Amazon Fire
Your child does not need a phone number or SIM. Parents approve every contact. Set up on your phone, then install Kids Call Home from the Amazon Appstore on the Fire tablet—or add Kids Call Home from the Fire browser—designed to get most families started in minutes.
Kids Call Home is listed on the Amazon Appstore for Fire tablets. On the Fire tablet web app, calls and messages work while Kids Call Home is open. For the most reliable parent notifications, use the iPhone or Android app.
