How do I sign in to Prime Video on my TV with an activation code?
The easiest way onto a TV is the activation code: the TV shows a short code, you enter it at primevideo.com/mytv from your phone or computer, and the TV signs in automatically — no password typing with the remote.
Step 1: Get the code on your TV
- Open the Prime Video app on your smart TV, Fire TV, Apple TV, or streaming box.
- Choose Sign in, then pick Register on the Amazon website (not "Sign in on this device").
- The TV displays a 5–6 character alphanumeric code. Leave this screen open.
Step 2: Enter the code on your phone or computer
- On your phone's browser, open [primevideo.com/mytv](https://www.primevideo.com/mytv).
- You'll be asked to sign in first: use the credentials from your FoxVIP order page (if an OTP is requested, fetch it with the Get verification code button).
- Once signed in, type the TV's code into the Enter your code box and click Register device.
- Within seconds the TV screen refreshes into the Prime Video home page.
Step 3: Pick your profile
Switch the TV to the profile named on your order page, and you're ready to watch.
If it doesn't work
- "Invalid or expired code": codes time out. Request a new code on the TV and enter the fresh one.
- TV doesn't react after registering: confirm both TV and phone are online, then relaunch the app and grab a new code.
- Can't sign in on the mytv page itself: complete a normal primevideo.com sign-in in the same browser first, then return to the mytv page.
- Older TV apps only offer password sign-in: entering the order-page email and password with the remote works too — mind the capitalization.
