Amazon fire

What can be done to get the I fly GPS to work on Amazon fire 10 tablet. I download it update it and seems to work other than it does not find a GPS signal. Is there anything I can add or download, hack on the tablet so I can get this to work? Thanks

Re: Amazon fire

I'm not familiar with the FireOS flavor of Android, but if it's got application-specific permissions, you should ensure that iFly has Location permissions enabled.

On my Samsung device, it's Settings > Apps > iFly > Permissions, then there are enable/disable sliders for Location and Storage.

Re: Amazon fire

You might consider getting an external ADSB receiver such as the Stratux, which will provide GPS information.
