I’ve seen multiple reviews saying that the Lego boost app does not work in Kindle kids’ profiles (FreeTime). Has Lego fixed this yet?

As of February 4, 2020, I was able to get the Lego Boost app on my child’s Amazon Fire Tablet!! It took me a minute to figure it out: In my profile on her tablet, I had to disable the ”Parental Controls”, then and only then was I able to download the app Lego Boost. Then, I turned the ”Parental Control” feature back on, while still in my profile, I went to ”Manage Child’s Profile”, “Add Content”, ”Share”, and then I was able to select which apps I wanted to show up on her profile. The Lego Boost app was one of those. Then I logged out of my profile and into hers, voilà there was the Lego Boost app on her profile and it works! Whew!

How do I turn off the hub while we are building, to save the batteries? Pressing the button does not seem to have any effect.

Hi Julie, holding the green button on the LEGO Boost hub for approx. 10 seconds will make it turn off.

Will the Kindle Tablets work with this?

although Lego says Kindle Fire 7 2017 works with the app, we found it to not work with our brand new 7th generation Fire 7s. The app either kicks us out or freezes repeatedly, on two devices. We had to use my smartphone as a platform instead. I am actually very surprised if others have no issues with the Fire 7

Will it be compatible with the mindstorm system?

No, the LEGO Boost software and hardware is not designed to be functional with the LEGO Mindstorms software or hardware.
