In some cases it may fail to download and you’ll have to install it manually. Confirm that you want to install the latest version and wait for the install to complete. You’ll be asked if you want to install Amazon Prime VOD, which you need in order to actually watch anything.
If you sync the APK to your account, when you load the folder you put it in within ES File Explorer you can just select it and open it. Whether you’ve got Dropbox, Google Drive, or something else you’d prefer, link it up with ES File Explorer. I used (the cloud service) Dropbox and dropped the APK in a folder in my Dropbox account.

Play the Amazon Prime video you’ve chosen to cast and click the full screen button.(If it doesn’t show up, click Options for the option to search for new devices.) Click the Google Cast icon in your browser bar (as pictured above) and select the Android TV device you want to cast to.Install the Google Cast extension and follow the setup instructions.Open up Google Chrome on your computer.So how does this all work?
