I recently got a new 2019 Kindle HD 10 and started setting it up. I have been able to get Google Play and Nova Launcher successfully installed without any issue. Everything has been working great but I am unable to do something that I was able to do with my older Kindle Fire Hard disk: add together shortcuts to the Home Screen.

Previously on a 2017? HD 10, I was able to add shortcuts from Chrome right to the desktop. I was besides able to add together a volume'south shortcut from Moon+ Reader right to the Dwelling Screen. But now, neither of these things seem to work. I am non exactly certain what's the outcome that is preventing this from happening. App permissions? Newer version of Burn down OS? A setting within Nova Launcher? I Googled the event and found someone mention this was due to the Bone version being higher but I oasis't found any real confirmation on this anywhere else.

Does anyone have an idea of why I can't do this - and is in that location any workarounds for this feature?

Thanks,
TB

Everything has been working smashing just I am unable to do something that I was able to do with my older Kindle Fire Hd: add shortcuts to the Domicile Screen.

Previously on a 2017? HD 10, I was able to add shortcuts from Chrome right to the desktop. I was also able to add a book'southward shortcut from Moon+ Reader right to the Home Screen. But at present, neither of these things seem to work. I am not exactly certain what's the upshot that is preventing this from happening. App permissions? Newer version of Fire Os? A setting within Nova Launcher? I Googled the issue and found someone mention this was due to the Bone version being college but I haven't found whatever real confirmation on this anywhere else.

Does anyone have an idea of why I can't practise this - and is there any workarounds for this characteristic?

You must disable Amazon'south crappy launcher

                              adb crush pm disable-user com.amazon.firelauncher

Yep, already did this using the Toolkit (xiv.2). I take Nova Launcher prepare equally my default launcher and take even restarted to come across if that cleared anything in memory. Still nothing. I have even gone back in and run the command again from the Toolkit to no avail. I keep checking permissions on the Kindle but I obviously haven't found the solution ... yet.

Have care,

I had widget support allready activated with toolkit but no pick to add a shortcut to Nova Launcher in Chrome and gdrive. I don't no why just suddenly the option appears in drive an chrome app.

Same trouble hither, configured with fire toolbox to utilise nova launcher, and widgets work just shortcuts don't.

And so... I installed "Shortcut Maker" app, and created widgets that are shortcuts on the desktop. I even made some use chrome and some utilise Firefox, works great. I'g guessing in that location are other similar app choices simply this solved my problem.

Note that when information technology first starts information technology says information technology tin't make shortcuts, to endeavour widgets, and that worked.

Every bit usual ymmv, only did exactly what I needed.
