When you turn WiFi off it only shows apps and shows or movies that have been downloaded, so it’s a much smaller set of content for them to choose from.<br /> I haven’t tried with videos we don’t own, but I know for the ones we do own I go into their settings and “share content” with them, then go back and download it into their Freetime. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/amazon-fire-kids-tablet-help#post-2878332 Tue, 26 Mar 2019 19:26:00 +0000 gotkimchi 2878332@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>You don’t have to buy the episodes you can just download them but I don’t do anything in my profile I do it all in the kids </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/amazon-fire-kids-tablet-help#post-2878329 Tue, 26 Mar 2019 19:14:23 +0000 MrsADS 2878329@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I just got a Kids kindle fire and ugh, this thing is a pain to figure out. I got it since we have 2 upcoming air travel trips and also my 3yo is having surgery. I want to download some episodes of his favorite shows to have on his profile so he can watch. I managed to turn off the Freetime feature (he will go nuts wanting to watch everything that shows up).</p> <p>I understand I have to download the shows in my profile and then "share" them with his profile. But when I download the show episodes, they aren't showing up in my video library. It says you have no videos downloaded. ?!?!?! But when I go to Amazon Prime Video, it shows up under "downloads" - which is a separate tab from "video library." Is it because I didn't buy the episode, only downloaded it? And I can't share it with him b/c it's not in the video library folder.</p> <p>Any fire experts want to weigh in? </p>
