I have a kindle fire tablet, 8.9 hd. Just downloaded aurora and there is no apparent way to go to settings. When I tap the icon on aurora all it shows is " share", there is not a device menu icon on this screen, how do I get to settings?

Hi bluesky4me,

Sometimes Aurora will include a menu icon near the top-right of the screen - it will look like three vertical dots. If you tap that, settings should be right in there - though you may to scroll down a little to see them.

If you don't see the three dots button, then Aurora has detected that there is a (physical or virtual) device menu button.

On Kindles, I believe the button is in the black bar at the bottom of the screen. If the bar is hidden, you can swipe up to see it.

There's more info in your device manual (pages 8 and 9) https://kindle-fire-updates.s3.amazonaws.com/Kindle_Fire_User_Guide.pdf#

Hope that helps!
