That depends. If you're using the external android player, then it should. Not having one I can't test it so I can't really tell you more.

The "-beta"s are just the versions which are not packaged into a release yet. You can download it from the GitHub repo and manually zip the directory.

plugin.video.amazon — Works only for Germany, and is going to be deprecated.
plugin.video.amazon-test — Works worldwide. In terms of features is separated between the infrastructures, so users of amazon.de/jp/co.uk/com will have an "experience" so to speak, while the users of primevideo.com will have a different one.
plugin.video.amazonvod — Will be the name of the amazon-test addon once it gets to the Kodi official repository, and will be the stable release channel.

It is, but on a "worthwhile info" basis. There have been a few minor releases with minor bugfixes and haven't bothered updating it. It's mostly small stuff.

Wrong addon.

Which uses currently the ID plugin.video.amazon-test and if it comes to Kodi repo it gets renamed to plugin.video.amazonvod.
Current version is 0.7.9.

The error message can be misleading. It also happens if the movie/tv series is available on primevideo but is restricted on your country, because maybe a local TV channel has the exclusive rights to it. Check the main website (primevideo.com) to see if that's the case.

As in, this addon is supposed to work in the US but is currently being fixed for the US, or prime video is just a part of this addon and that part doesn't currently work in the US. I've not used this yet since I've been waiting on it to get updated before giving it a try and it sounds like it's ready to give it a go but I'm not sure what you mean by prime video not working in the United States. Thanks
Sure. The "PrimeVideo" login method refers to logins on the website primevideo.com, which serves (almost) the whole world. Germany, Japan, UK, US use amazon.de, amazon.jp, amazon.co.uk and amazon.com respectively. While Amazon is behind all of them, the infrastructure differs in key parts and components. So you could see Amazon VOD as an addon that works with all 5 platforms, but PrimeVideo.com has a set of rules, restrictions and features, and Amazon.TLDs have a different set of rules, restrictions and features.
When I talk about Prime Video I'm not talking about the general "service" amazon provides with that name, rather specifically the website primevideo.com, as I'm the lead developer/maintainer of the code that supports the primevideo.com infrastructure.
