Question Use Express VPN with Amazon Prime Android

[dario.moras13]

Hey, I'm gonna jump right to the topic, I live in Africa and recently bought a ExpressVPN subscription to stream Netflix and Amazon Prime from other countries as there is little here, Netflix is working perfectly with the VPN, but Amazon Prime Video app doesn't want to work, it always says error code 1044, please turn off your HTTP-Proxy or your VPN to use our service (something like that), I looked a lot on the internet but they always only say the VPNs that should work with Amazon Prime, so I'm asking here to see if maybe someone knows a way around or a trick to still watch, maybe installing the VPN on the router, or changing the DNS server, idk, that's why I'm asking for your help guys, I appreciate any help or tip, and by the way I'm watching on my Android Tablet (other devices don't work too).

A lot of content companies know pretty well the major VPN providers, and knowing them makes it possible to block them. Your journey is made even more difficult by using a tablet.

Your chance is to find little-known but fast VPN (or ask someone in USA to host a VPN server for you on his/her home router).

ExpressVPN offers 30 days money-back guarantee, So if you are facing problems refund your money. And choose NordVPN most probably your p problem will be resolved.

It really does depend on which vpn you're using because not all of them are able to bypass the geo-blocks. For example, I use Surfshark (actually the main reason I got it was to be able to stream on websites such as Netflix, Hulu, and BBC player) and so far it works quite decently for me, I didn't have any issues. Maybe you should try to get a refund and change the vpn provider. Here's a link of vpn's that work for streaming: https://medium.com/@cooperleon73/best-vpns-for-streaming-e497d138b816
