    With Amazon Prime Video you can stream content on up to three devices, without having to create seperate profiles for each user, so long as you're watching three different titles. You can't watch the same title on more than two devices at the same time

    Suspect then that household two would have to log in as me and get the code for device .

    My parents just use my email and password on their Roku, got a separate profile for them. Essentially the same as Netflix and not had any issues.

    Can they log onto the main amazon site aswell and check all your purchases you have made with the same log in details?

    Depends if the account requires log in using an activation code (usually sent by text message).

    Well Netflix is not Amazon Prime Video so no use .
    Especially as prime Video log in is the same as Amazon purchasing log in .

    Don't give them the log in details. Log in once for them and it should stay logged in on the TV?
    No free lunch, and no free laptop ;)

    I can confirm that works - I'm "signed in" on my TV for Prime for the rugby via my s-i-l - just gave him the code for him to add the TV.
