Hi Vrs123, Agree that a video series would be a great idea; I will pass this suggestion on to our developer outreach team. Until then, a great place to start: https://developer.amazon.com/appsandservices/solutions/devices/fire-phone/overview/getting-started-developing-apps-for-fire-phone Unless you are actually integrating any of the new features contained in the new Fire Phone SDK (ex: head tracking, Firefly, etc) most standard API 17 Android apps will run just fine. You can test them at the link below on an actual device: https://developer.amazon.com/public/resources/development-tools/app-testing-service

Hi Harshvardhantrivedi, This is becoming more common as the Fire family of devices continues to grow. We have a feature called Amazon Device Targeting, which offers you the ability to target APKs to specific devices. For example, you can now offer separate APKs for Kindle Fire HD 7", Kindle Fire HD 8.9", FireTV, Fire Phone and general Android (all non-Amazon) devices - all with the same title (ASIN). Rather than try to explain in detail, please refer to the blog post below. It will guide you step-by-step in how to implement this feature. https://developer.amazon.com/appsandservices/community/post/Tx1M5QLAWM6XCTH/Amazon-Device-Targeting

Hi Harshvardhantrivedi, We have tried to create a standard user experience for the Fire Phone and many of the controls. In this case the API controls how the side panels inflate, so customizing the width parameter is not something that is exposed to you.
