How to register a device on Amazon

The simplest way to connect a device to your Amazon account is to download an Amazon app, like Prime Music or Prime Video, and sign into your existing Amazon Prime account.

Depending on your security settings, you might have to confirm your identity by typing in a code sent to the email or phone number associated with your account.

For devices like Amazon Fire TV Stick, iPhone, Android, or iPad, this is all you have to do to register on Amazon.

However, with some smart TVs and gaming consoles, you might need to navigate to Amazon's "Register a device" page on your Mac or PC and enter the six-digit code displayed on your TV or console. This process should only take about a minute.
