I have been fighting with this Kindle app for a long time.
Even after fixing the server url code, it seems that when there is no Depth sentence, it won't display anything. So perhaps any missing element and it just won't work. Using the Signal K emulator in Openplotter to add a value for Depth allows that problem to be bypassed.
So it works in a browser on my PC but if I try to display it on my Kindle IV I get only the outline (frame) of the display - no data, even the settings icon isn't showing (though I can click it's outline). The settings page seems to work. I'm running 4.1.3 firmware. Javascript is enabled.
Tempted to get a used Paperwhite or Touch model so I can load Weblaunch as that's the only success story I've seen for these.
