Hello - I thought I'd have a go at installing the latest (4.6) version of the Kobo app for Android onto my Kindle Fire HD. I switched on the option to install apps from unknown sources, then downloaded the apk from Torrapk. It downloaded quite happily - but then refused to install, even after rebooting the Kindle Fire HD. All I got was a very brief message saying 'could not install'. I tried several times but no joy. Anyone got any idea what's going? Is this version of the Kobo app simply incompatible with the Fire, or there some other factor that I am missing?
