save and reset fillable pdf forms on mobile device

I created a fillable PDF form from a scanned PDF on Acrobat XI. When editing the document I added a button that I configured to "save as" and "reset" fields when clicked using the button properties. The button works on PC, but not on mobile device. Currently using a kindle fire with the adobe reader app installed. Using the Kindle Fire I can fill-out the PDF form but the save and reset button do not function. The purpose of the document is to have a customer fill out the form and tap the save and reset button, and what we want to happen is the form is saved on the kindle fire  for every customer that fills out the form. It is meant to be totally autonomous, each customer should be able to fill out the form, hit the button, and it's automatically saved and resets. If I need to use a different device that is an option. What I am looking for in the end is maybe a java script that will work for the button on a bile device.

Most scripts won't work on mobile devices. It's a fact of life that you have to live with, at least for the moment.

Hopefully it will improve in the near future...
