If you’ve ever tried to log out of Amazon Prime Video on your TV, you’ll know it’s not as simple as it might seem. The app doesn’t offer a clearly visible sign-out button, and if you’re using an Amazon Fire TV, the process involves disconnecting your entire Amazon account from the device. Fortunately, there’s a more straightforward method that works across all devices — and it starts on Amazon’s website or within the Amazon Shopping app.
Here’s how you can easily sign out of Amazon Prime Video on any television.
Logging Out Through the Amazon Website
The most efficient way to remove a device from your Amazon Prime account is via the official Amazon website. This method allows you to manage all your linked devices in one place.
-
Visit Amazon’s website and sign in to your Amazon account.
-
Hover your cursor over the “Accounts & Lists” option in the top-right corner of the page.
-
From the dropdown menu, choose “Devices”.
-
Navigate to the section titled “Amazon apps installed on devices”.
-
Click on “Prime Video” to view the list of devices connected to your account.
-
Find the device you want to log out from and click “Deregister” next to it.
-
Confirm your choice by selecting “Deregister” again when prompted.
This will immediately sign you out of Prime Video on that specific television.
Logging Out Through the Amazon App
If you prefer using your phone, you can also remove devices via the Amazon Shopping app. This method is just as effective and convenient for mobile users.
-
Launch the Amazon Shopping app on your smartphone or tablet.
-
Tap the menu icon (three horizontal lines) located in the bottom-right corner.
-
Head into the “Account” section.
-
Scroll down to “Account settings” and tap on “Devices”.
-
In the “Amazon apps installed on devices” section, select “Prime Video”.
-
Find the relevant device and tap “Deregister” beneath it.
-
Confirm the action by tapping “Deregister” again.
Once completed, the device will be signed out of Prime Video and removed from your account’s list of authorised devices.
