I can't believe how easy this was and how well it works! Thank you. I had google apps on my Fire 10 in the past and it was awful, I had to go back to stock kindle OS. No more of that. Its like a new device! 🤘
Thank you. Got a refurbished HD 8 for $45 off Amazon and was worried about not being able to utilize and/or customize it how I wanted/needed. But now I feel like I have a top notch android tablet for a steal of a price!!
Wow honestly the simplest and straight forward tutorial. Thank you so much my daughter will love this update!

Great, clear, easy to understand video! Thank you! For those of you watching this around Oct 14, 2020, my installation got stuck while installing the Switft Key when using Version 9.0 on a Kindle HD 10. The Kindle would say "Fire is Starting" but would hang there. I then downloaded version Version 8.2 from the XDA website, and it worked just like it is shown on this video.
