    Change your county under settings advanced and general then location for store or something like that. Guessing it will vary depending on which LG TV you have. Change it to the UK. TV will restart. Go back to the app store and Amazon will be there. You can change back if you want and Amazon will stay.

    So I'm having a weird one with this. Trying the free trial and using a dns unblocker.

    On iOS devices I'm getting a very very limited library, not even the full content of the Irish one. Decided to try the dns setting on my smart tv and then downloaded the Amazon app on to it and it appears I have access to the US prime video selection which is pretty big.

    Weird that two different devices are acting differently.

    Are you sure it's the US version?? How did you get that?

    Yeah definitely the US version. Some of the content is only available to rent/buy and is priced in dollars. You can also chose content by TV channel and they are all American - ABC CBS etc.

    I`m guessing its the DNS unblocker that Im using that is bouncing me on to the US version on my TV, although funny enough it has no affect on my iPad!

    Started trial.
    Saw how insultingly small the amount of content was .
    Cancelled trial.
    Might try it in a year , but even when Netflix launched here it had way more content than that.

    You can go to amazon.com and watch it there. Most of original content is no geoblocked.

    They should have left the launch until 2017.

    Wont be renewing anyway. Not sure why they launched here with so little content. How can they have licensing issue with their own content?

    I signed up. did it through my amazon.co.uk account, for the year and paid 79 gbp , not much use could not use roku streaming device, amazon must block app for ROI.

    If your roku account was setup as a UK one you can download and use thier amazon app. I've got it setup with no issue, set the account up with getflix vpn on pc, and using it with smart dns setup on my router. The roku is very limited on an Irish setup.
