CC bought from Google Play

I have CC that I bought from Google Play. I cannot use the apk file to install on my Fire HD 6. I am assuming I will have to repurchase this app from Amazon, correct?

Unless you want to go to a lot of trouble, yes. Amazon did not include the google licensing services on Kindles.

The "trouble" is to install the google play store on the kindle. There are lots of sites out there that tell you how to do this. The problem is that (apparently) you must "root" your kindle, which is something that Amazon frowns upon.

I haven't tried the process on my Fire HD because I want to have a standard device for my tests.

Thanks Chaley. I don't want to root my Fire so I'll just rebuy.
