How Do I Join a Prime Video Watch Party on Connected Devices?

All Prime Video customers are able to join a Watch Party.

  1. Open the link that you received in a mobile web browser. You’ll be prompted to open the Prime Video app.
  2. If you aren’t entitled to watch the content selected in the Watch Party, you’ll be prompted to subscribe to Amazon Prime Video, or buy or rent the content, depending on the content you're trying to watch.
  3. To join the Prime Video app on your Android or iOS device, enter your desired username under Chat name. Select Join Watch Party to join the chat room.
  4. Open the Prime Video app on your connected device. Go to My Stuff > Join Watch Party. Enter the code that appears in the Prime Video app on your Android or iOS device. Select Join then confirm with Join Watch Party to join the Watch Party. Please note, if your app doesn't have a "My Stuff" section, or if it doesn't show an option to join a Watch Party on "My Stuff," please update the Prime Video app on your device. If the "Join Watch Party" option doesn’t appear, then your device doesn’t currently support the Watch Party feature.

Alternatively, if you have already joined a Watch Party on an iOS or Android device, then log into the Prime Video app on a connected device, you should see a notification asking you if you wish to join the same Watch Party on your connected device.

For content included with Prime Video, Amazon Prime members or Prime Video subscribers are eligible to join a Watch Party in their country. Non-Amazon Prime members trying to access eligible titles included with an Amazon Prime membership or Prime Video subscription will be prompted to subscribe to Prime Video - with free 30-day trial available (if eligible). If the title is available for purchase or rent, you'll also prompted to purchase or rent, if you don't already have access to the title.

The participants must be from the same country as the host and the host must begin their Watch Party from PrimeVideo.com. The availability of content and titles may vary over time and by location.

Note: Watch Parties can be watched through the Prime Video app on supported Fire TV devices in France, Italy, Spain, Mexico, Brazil, Australia, India, and Canada, the Prime Video app for selected connected devices, in addition to Android mobile phones, Android tablets, Fire tablets, iPhones, and iPads. You can also access Prime Video Watch Parties on desktop web browsers, except for Apple's Safari.
