How to get an Amazon movie rental?
You can rent videos on the Amazon website, the mobile app, or the Prime video app on your TV, and the steps of rent are the same. Once you’ve paid for the rental, you can log in to your Amazon account on any device to watch the video.
1. On the PC side, open the Prime Video website in a browser and log in to your Amazon account. On your phone and TV, launch the Prime Video app.
2. Find the video you want to watch. You can browse the list of movies by category, or search for videos by title, genre, actor, or director.
3. On the video’s details page, you can select a rental option. If the video is free, you’ll see “Watch Now” or “Play movie”. Otherwise, you’ll see buttons to rent or buy the video. Click “More purchase options” and you’ll have the options to buy standard definition (SD), high definition (HD), or 4K UHD. Not all videos have the UHD option.
4. To find all of your purchased and rented video content, select “My Stuff“, then select the “Purchases” tab. This approach also applies to Prime Video app on mobile and TV.
