Amazon Fire HD 8 is a PERFECT control panel for Home Assistant

Published at : 23 Dec 2025

I’ve decided that Amazon’s Fire HD 8 tablet makes the perfect control panel for Home Assistant. In this tutorial I’m going to show you the software and configuration process I went through so as you can give it a go yourself. Please note that this is NOT a sponsored video, I am not affiliated with Fully Kiosk and I receive no commission from them in any form. I’m just demonstrating how I have set my control panel up, and as an aside I go over some of the paid-for ‘plus’ features of Fully Kiosk for the sake of completeness.
