My daughter uses all Fire-based games available through the Kids-edition so no syncing with Google Play there. I'll be happy to try something, but I'm at work now and without a Fire nearby so it would be this evening...
I have control pages setup and run fine with Indigo Touch and my iPad. But know zip about Android, getting Android apps onto Fire Tablets (is "side loading" still necessary), etc.
Will Indigo control pages that work on my iPad via Indigo Touch work the same on a Fire using DomoPad? Or do I need to create new control page versions for the Fire? Also, are there any issues getting DomoPad loaded onto a Fire?

Do we need to hack the Fire somehow to get Domopad running on them?

In order to get the Play Store on the Fire, you download and install them manually -- but it is very well documented, including the links to use to install them. Once on there, you can install any application from the Play store normally through the store app.Will Indigo control pages that work on my iPad via Indigo Touch work the same on a Fire using DomoPad?

The pages themselves will work no problem - the only issue might be that if the resolutions differ the aspect ratio may be off a tad bit. Sometimes this is not an issue at all, sometimes you may need to adjust the spacing a bit. For instance, when I changed devices here last time I only needed to move my bottom controls up a tad bit to accommodate (they were partially off screen), then the pages continued to work for multiple devices.
I've heard of many people, though, who have separate control pages for consoles/tablets that stay in the house. Totally up to you.

No hacks needed. Can't link at the moment, but search the forum for a post where I document how to do it, it seriously takes 10 minutes from start to finish. The basic steps are to download and install the 4 Google APKs associated with the Play Store, in order, using the Amazon browser. After that's done, you have Google play just like a "regular" Android tablet and can install anything you want, including Domopad. Domopad does everything that Indigo Touch does, and SO much more.

Thanks for the request! It's on the list, but no ETA...
