If you’re trying to watch Amazon Prime Video on your TV without paying for installation—good news: the app itself is completely free to install. What you pay for (if anything) is the subscription, not the app.
Here’s how it works in a simple, real-user way:
Step 1: Check if Your TV Supports the App
Most modern smart TVs already support Prime Video, including:
- Samsung Smart TVs
- LG Smart TVs
- Android TVs
- Fire TV devices
If your TV has an app store, you’re good to go.
Step 2: Open the App Store on Your TV
Using your remote:
- Go to Apps or App Store
- Search for Amazon Prime Video
Step 3: Install the App (Free)
Click Install or Download
👉 There is no charge for installing the app.
It downloads just like YouTube or Netflix.
Step 4: Open and Sign In
Once installed:
- Open the app
- Choose Sign in
- You may see a code → go to amazon.com/mytv and enter it
Do You Need to Pay After Installing?
Here’s the honest answer:
- If you already have Amazon Prime → you’re good
- If not → you’ll need a subscription to watch most content
You might still get it free if:
- You use a free trial (new users)
- Your mobile plan includes Prime
- There are special offers running
