  2. Scroll to the right and choose the Preferences option.
  3. Select the Sync Recent Content option to turn it on.

There are a lot of different ways that you can watch Amazon Prime Video content. There’s an app for your mobile phone, you can watch it on your computer, and you can even get streaming devices like a Roku or the Amazon Fire TV Stick and watch it there, too.

One of the most convenient aspects of this multi-device capability is that you can syn content viewing across your account and start watching a movie or TV show on one device, then pick it up later at the same spot on another device.

But if you are having trouble finding something on your Fire TV Stick that you were previously watching, then you may need to change a setting on the device. Our guide below will show you where to find this option so that you can sync recent content from Amazon Prime on your Amazon Fire TV Stick.
