Will progressive web apps run on Amazon Fire 7?

I have a kindle fire 7, Android 5.1.1 with the latest Chrome installed (v84). I wrote a simple PWA (progressive web app) template, and also have tried some known sites that have progressive web apps, but I never get that install button to render in Chrome, meaning apparently the beforeinstallprompt even is never fired, although I know that the sites are valid PWA sites since they are installable in the desktop version of Chrome.
Is there an android or chrome setting that I can tweak to be able to install the PWA on the kindle fire?

Debugging a website on iPhone Safari

I have a website that loads perfectly on various browsers on Windows Laptop, Android and Fire OS. The same site refuses to load on a Safari on an iPhone.
It is an angular application. While I see the index.html load, the angular does not load. I need to debug to figure out what is happening. I only have a Windows 10 laptop. How can I debug the website running on Safari on an iPhone from my Windows 10 laptop?
If you only have a windows laptop, you will need an online service like browserstack. There is no way around this. Physical Iphones can only be debugged with Safari, running on physical Mac desktops or laptops. Browserstack is a subscription service, but it will be a lot cheaper than buying the hardware.

Building and debugging websites and web applications for mobile devices can be a hassle. On the desktop we have powerful debugging tools; most browsers have a web inspector of some kind. But we don’t have those tools for devices like the iPhone and iPad … that is, until now!

Appium and android stock browser

I have Samsung device with stock browser that called Internet.
The device is over 4.4 version.
I'm trying to remote debug the stock browser on a real device without success.
Already succeeded to remote debug chrome.
Is it possible on a real device and not on emulator?
The problem is just Samsung's stock browser
Hi!, Appium started to work with Android's stock browser (named.. Browser) since v1.3, the actual problem is the Samsung stock browser isn't Browser, it's Internet! These both apps are different (shame on Samsung!, not Appium guys fault). All other Android distributions that stock browser is Browser are working fine with Appium >= v1.3 as I've said before.
Emulator stock browser is Browser, that's why it's working for you on Emulator!
Why Appium doesn't work with Samsung's stock browser?
Appium are built to work with Chromium WebView (present on Chrome and Browser) , and Internet does not have it. So it doesn't work with Appium now, and probably won't work never, as Appium's maintainers does not have any interest to do the automation outside Chromium WebView. See this issue for more information: https://github.com/appium/appium/issues/4509
Ok, but how do I use Appium with Samsung devices?
So, the only solution is installing Chrome into your samsung device.
If you can't access the store to install the Chrome app, you can download and install manually the Chrome APK into your device (or other browser that uses Chromium webview, such as Chromium and ContentShell).
PS: ContentShell is basically only Chromium webview, without favorites, bookmarks and other common browser stuff, so it's pretty good for Appium testing.

Can we bundle Chrome installer with Packaged App?

We have built Packaged App for our Web Application.
Is it possible to provide Chrome installer in a Packaged App bundle or somehow trigger Chrome installation in the background from Packaged App.
Currently Chrome Browser is separate Dependancy for using Packaged Apps so it is difficult to convince Users to first install Chrome browser.
Also, people can install the App for any location as a complete package.
It's not possible yet, but you can star http://crbug.com/173762 to get notified when it does work.
