Kindle fire apps?

[William Prothero]

Folks,
I'm considering purchasing a Kindle Fire so I can take my books with me on a trip to Spain without fear of losing my iPad Pro, which costs 10 times as much as the Kindle.

I'm wondering, tho, if anybody is making apps for Kindle with livecode. I read, in the Kindle reviews, that the Kindle doesn't access the Google App Store. So I'm wondering if the Kindle is a viable test platform for Android apps. 

Thx for any insights.
Bill
