Fix the error “Something went wrong” on Amazon Prime Video
As much annoying it can be, the error can be resolved pretty quickly. The error is quite common among Prime users, and hence Amazon Prime Support has come up with solutions. It is a list of tips you can try to resolve the issue and start watching your favorite content. We are listing the steps for you.
The two most common solutions to this problem are:
- Restart your device, which contains Amazon Prime Video. This will immediately eliminate the error if it happened due to some internal process issue.
- Also, if the above doesn’t help, try restarting your router. It may be a connection error; Amazon is unable to establish a connection with your router.
If the above tips don’t work for you, try the following to get rid of the issue for good.
- Update your device to the latest version of the operating system. Ensure that your Prime Video app is updated too.
- Check whether you can connect to the internet on other devices and apps with the same network. If yes, try using custom DNS Settings. Google’s Public DNS is fast and reliable. You can configure your settings by following the steps from here.
- Disable any VPN or proxy servers. Using proxy servers can hamper a content streaming app adversely due to location verification.
- This step holds if you are watching Amazon Prime Video on TV or on some external display. Please ensure that your HDMI cable and display are compatible with HDCP 1.4 (for HD content) or HDCP 2.2 (for UHD/HDR content).
- Lastly, make sure your one-click payment method is up-to-date.
