How do I download Amazon Prime app onto my Apple TV viewing options?
Amazon Prime Video is available for:
Apple TV (3rd generation) with Apple TV Software 7.2.2. Amazon Prime Video is automatically added there.
Apple TV (4th and 5th generation). Amazon Prime Video is downloadable in the tvOS App Store.
Alternatively, one could AirPlay from the similar app on an iOS device to Apple TV as well.
Thanks. Helpful. I have feeling I have an earlier generation of Apple TV (purchased in 2008. Version 6.2) than the ones mentioned. I will have to check. How does one get to the tvOS App Store from the TV?

Purchased in 2008. Version 6.2
The 1st generation (A1218) was on sale from 2007–2010. Its final software version is 3.0.2.
The 2nd generation (A1378) was on sale from 2010–2012. Its final software version is 6.2.1.
The 3rd generation (A1427, A1469) was on sale from 2012–2016. Its final software version is 7.2.2.
All these tidbits seem different from your statement?

The App Store is only available on the 4th and 5th generation, with software version 9.0 or later.
Ok. Thanks. I have version 6.2. I checked. So it must be from 2010. I guess I will see if I can activate Apple TV sharing with my I-PAD and then Amazon Prime on the I-PAD. Does that make sense?
That makes perfect sense. 🙂
Thanks for your help.
