Polaris Office not compatible with N5?

It's free on the Amazon appstore today (along with other apps like Swype!), but it shows as not compatible both there and google play store. Any idea why and how to get it to install?

I didn't notice there are a number of Polaris Office products. The one called simply Polaris Office is not compatible with the N5 (or man other devices it looks like).
 
You are looking at the kindle version.

Look for the non kindle version (which is not available at amazon). It is available at Google play, but requires a connection to a server that will support it)

Why not use quick office instead?

It does not show as compatible on the Play Store either, as mentioned. The description says this "*It's only for updating Samsung Galaxy series(Galaxy S3)" and the other versions on the play store say they are for subscribers of certain services. I'm thinking it's just an app tied to certain products, and marketing rather than compatibility is the problem. So it goes
