Apple TV app verification failed error on Fire TV Cube 1st generation

I have a 1st generation Fire TV Cube and have been unable to sign into my Apple account on the Apple TV app.  Both the Fire TV OS (6.2.7.3 NS6273/2773, with Fire TV Home Version 6240499.1) and the Apple TV app (version 4.1) have been updated the latest version.  I've gone through various posts by users with a similar problem and tried reinstalling, the app and doing a factory reset.  Nothing has worked so far.


I also have a Fire TV 4K stick running the same version of the Fire TV OS, and the Apple TV app works fine on that device.


If there are other fixes that I can try, can you please kindly pass this information to the software development team?


Thank you very much.

It seems that I might not have been fully signed into my iPhone, so when I completed another login on my iPhone, I was able to sign in on the Fire TV Cube with the mobile option.


Thanks so much for all the help!

Hello ScoutMentality,


Thanks for using the Apple Support Communities! We understand that you are having some troubles signing in to your Apple ID on your Fire TV Cube. Let’s take a look and see what we can do. We're happy to help!


Let's first take a look at this resource that we were able to gather. This resource explains that if you have Two-Factor Authentication turned on that you will receive a verification code when signing in. On the Fire TV Cube you will need to enter your password followed by the 6-digit code to sign in. We recommend taking a look at this resource of getting a verification code to sign in to your Apple ID.


Get a verification code and sign in with two-factor authentication


Have a great day!
