FAQ – amazon.com/mytv Not Working

Double-check that you're entering all 6 digits correctly. Codes are numbers only — no letters. Also make sure you haven't waited too long; expired codes always fail. Get a fresh code from your TV and enter it immediately.
Switch from WiFi to mobile data (or vice versa) and try again. Also clear your phone browser's cache. If using the Amazon app, try the browser instead. Safari on iPhone and Chrome on Android both work well with amazon.com/mytv.
If amazon.com/mytv is down, you can sometimes sign in directly on the TV using your Amazon email and password (though this is harder on a TV remote). You can also try the Amazon app on your phone — some devices support in-app activation.
