On any site I have tried (including this one right now) the Enter button of my digital keyboard does nothing. I am on a Kindle Fire HD 8 (7th generation). The Enter button works just fine in other apps, and worked in the browser apps I used before Firefox. I just checked and it's still working in the native Silk browser.

Update: Installing gboard (Google Keyboard) seems to have fixed this problem.

Enter now works here. Going to double check with another site. [EDIT] Yep. Works on other sites too. gboard also supports more languages than the default Kindle Fire Keyboard so it's probably a good idea.

Hi

Firefox for Android is not available from the Amazon app store and has not been made available for Kindle Fire Devices.

You can, however, install Google Play on Kindle Fire devices and install Firefox for Android from there.

I gather that "We don't support that" is likely to be the response, but frankly even with the 'no enter' bug Firefox is still better than the default Silk Browser.

I would obviously be interested in knowing others in the community have had the same problem, and if they have found any workarounds.
