Here is a free book you can check if you like:

Worked for me in Bluestacks.

I do, yes.
I have tested it with app version 8.51 in Bluestacks N64, and it works there as well.

Very strange.... What could be different for me? Using "real" mobile (Android 8). Guess I could try Bluestacks.

Thanks for testing.

I used your link in PC to purchase the book and then sent it to my Likebook P78 and Bluestacks device.
I could it open, but I couldn't read it on my EInk P78 device, but I could on Bluestacks.
But I was able to open the P78 book in Calibre.

Bluestacks behaves differently than normal Android. Maybe because it doesn't emulate Android, but the modified Android version of OnePlus phones that used to be OxygenOS.

And do you get KFX files on Kindle 8.51 on those eink devices? In Bluestacks I still get KF8 files, even though 8.51 should download KFX files.

If you didn't try, but others have tried and get it to work with Bluestacks, but not a real device, then inherently there IS a difference in how Bluestacks handles things compared to other (physical) devices. Bluestacks is also unique that it can run multiple ABI (Application Binary Interface) in the same virtual machine. You can disable this if you want, but by default a Bluestacks emulator can run different APKs that are compiled for different processors - 32bitARM, 64bitARM, 32bitX86, and 64bitX86 can coexist in the same VM. Though, support for 64bit requires a 64bit Android version, even in BS.

Added a note to the OP about this occasionally failing on physical devices. Whether there's differences between emulation and non-emulation, or the app being cut off, unknown for now.

You can. However, if I do it I guarantee I'll break it and then missiles will fly and drones will come for me.

Why would you want to change it when it works as intended? Not how Amazon intends it, but how we do?

Bluestacks does something right - it doesn't allow KFX downloads. For confirmation I have installed the same APK for Kindle for Android 8.51 in the Android Emulator. Bluestacks gives KF8 downloads including a container with high resolution images, the other downloads a KFX file.

I do plan on updating it again to support Kindle for Android within the next day or two. But adding a CLI to the plugin is more work than I am willing to do for a feature I don’t have any use for.
