Frequently asked questions
Where do I set up Kids Call Home on a Kindle Fire for the first time?
Start at kidscallhome.com/kids-calling-on-amazon-fire-tablets. This page is troubleshooting only.
Do Fire tablets need an Amazon Appstore install?
No. Kids Call Home works as an installable PWA in Silk (Add to Home Screen). A dedicated Amazon Appstore version is planned but is not yet available.
Why does my child miss incoming calls on Fire?
The installable web app receives calls while open. Parents on native iPhone or Android apps get the most reliable incoming notifications.
