Logging in to Prime Video is a straightforward process. Here’s how you can do it on different devices:
Open your web browser (like Chrome, Firefox, or Safari).
Go to the Prime Video website: https://www.primevideo.com/.
Look for a button that says “Sign In” or “Log In.” Click it. It’s usually in the top right corner of the page.
Enter your email or phone number associated with your Amazon account.
Next, enter your Amazon account password.
Click the “Sign In” button.
Once you’ve done this, you should be logged in and can start watching movies and TV shows on Prime Video.
The process can vary slightly depending on your device, but here are the general steps:
Turn on your smart TV or streaming device and open the Prime Video app.
You will likely see a few options for logging in. Common options include:
Sign in: This prompts you to enter your email or phone number and password directly on your TV.
Sign in with a QR code: Your TV screen will show a QR code. Scan this code with your smartphone’s camera. This will usually open a webpage on your phone to enter your Amazon account details. Once you do, your TV will log in.
Sign in on the Amazon website: Your TV will give you a website address (usually primevideo.com/mytv) and a unique code. Go to this website on your computer or phone, log in to your Amazon account, and enter the code shown on your TV screen.
Follow the on-screen instructions for the option you choose. If you select “Sign in,” enter your Amazon account email or phone number and password using your remote.
After you complete these steps, you should be logged in to Prime Video on your TV or streaming device.
Download the Prime Video app from your device’s app store (Apple App Store or Google Play Store).
Open the Prime Video app.
Look for a “Sign In” or “Log In” button and tap it.
Enter the email address or phone number linked to your Amazon account.
Type your Amazon account password.
Tap the “Sign In” button.
You should now be able to access Prime Video content on your phone or tablet.
What if I forgot my Amazon account password?
If you can’t remember your password, go to the Amazon website or app and click on the “Forgot your password?” link. You will be guided through the process of resetting your password, usually by verifying your identity through your email or phone number.
Can multiple people log in to Prime Video with one account?
Yes, your Amazon Prime membership allows multiple devices to be logged in to Prime Video. However, there’s a limit to how many devices can stream the same content at the same time. Typically, you can stream up to three different titles simultaneously using the same Amazon account.
Do I need an Amazon Prime membership to watch Prime Video?
In most regions, access to the full Prime Video library is included with an Amazon Prime membership. However, in some areas, you might be able to subscribe to Prime Video as a standalone service without full Prime benefits. You will still need an Amazon account to log in.
I’m having trouble logging in on my TV. What should I do?
Double-check that you are entering the correct email address or phone number and password. Make sure your internet connection is stable. If you are using the “Sign in with a QR code” or “Sign in on the Amazon website” options, ensure you are using the correct website and entering the exact code shown on your TV screen. Restarting your TV or streaming device can sometimes resolve login issues.
Is my Prime Video account linked to my Amazon shopping account?
Yes, your Prime Video account uses the same login credentials as your Amazon shopping account. You use the same email address or phone number and password for both.
How do I log out of Prime Video?
The process for logging out varies by device:
On a computer, find a “Sign Out” option in the account settings or by hovering over your profile name in the top right corner.
On smart TVs and streaming devices, look for the “Sign Out” option in the Prime Video app’s settings or profile section.
On mobile apps, find a “Sign Out” option in the app’s menu or account settings.
Can I create separate profiles within my Prime Video account?
Yes, Prime Video allows you to create multiple user profiles within a single account. This lets different members of your household have their own personalized viewing experience. You can manage profiles in the Prime Video app’s settings or when you first log in.
