To download a movie to a Kindle Fire, open the Prime Video app, find the movie, open its detail page, and tap Download if that option appears. Once the download finishes, play the movie in Prime Video when you’re offline. Amazon now generally calls these devices Fire tablets, but the basic steps answer the same question for Kindle Fire owners.

Download a movie with Prime Video

  1. Connect your Fire tablet to Wi-Fi and open the Prime Video app.

Amazon’s Prime Video download help confirms Fire tablets are supported for offline downloads and directs users to the title’s detail page. The exact name or location of the downloaded-titles section can vary by app version.

Why a movie may not have a Download option

Not every movie is available to download. If the detail page has no download control, you cannot save that title through the Prime Video download route. Amazon’s cited help page does not list every eligibility restriction, so availability must be checked title by title.

Use Netflix if the movie is there

Netflix says its app is available from the Amazon Appstore on Fire tablets with Fire OS 7 or later. See Netflix’s Fire tablet instructions and its guidance on troubleshooting unavailable downloads. A Netflix download is watched in Netflix; it does not download a movie from Prime Video.
