Here are the four APKs you need to sideload Google Play on your Fire 7 (12th gen) running Fire OS 8.3.3.4:

   Needed for Google account authentication on Android 6.0+.
   Download from APKMirror 

2. **Google Services Framework 10 (for Android 10+)**
   Required framework on Fire OS 8 (based on Android 11).
   Grab version 10 (29) APK from APKMirror  

3. **Google Play services**
   Use a recent “nodpi” arm64-v8a build for Android 11+.
   Example: Google Play services 24.28.x (ARM64, nodpi), downloadable on APKMirror  

4. Google Play Store (Android 10+)
   Version 46.3.21‑29 (nodpi, universal) from APKMirror (this is the one that is older but stable -- it works)
