Watch Movies & TV Shows
Watch Amazon Instant Video movies or TV shows that you've purchased or rented on
Amazon Fire TV. You can also stream Prime Instant Video movies or TV shows at no
additional cost with an Amazon Prime membership.
Note: Not all videos available in the Amazon Instant Video store are available in the Prime
Instant Video catalog.
To watch Amazon Instant Video movies or TV shows you've purchased or rented:
1. From the Home screen, select Video Library.
2. Locate the movie or TV show you want to watch and select Watch Now or Resume
(if you previously didn't finish the video) to begin streaming the movie or TV show.
To watch Prime Instant Video movies or TV shows:
1. From the Home screen, navigate to the Prime Video category. You can also browse
the Recently Added to Prime or Top Movies and TV on Prime lists on the Home
screen or in the Movies and TV categories.
2. Locate the movie or TV show you want to watch and select the video artwork to start
streaming the movie or TV show at no additional cost if you are an Amazon Prime
member.
Note: Your Video Library includes all the Amazon Instant Video movies and TV shows
you've purchased and active rentals, but does not include the movies and TV shows that you
watched through Prime Instant Video. Content you purchase is stored in the Cloud and
available to stream to your Amazon Fire TV. Movies and TV shows from third-party apps,
such as Netflix and Hulu, can be accessed directly from the apps in the Apps section, not the
Video Library.
