“False advertisement — I pay extra for add free prime video and apparently just because you pay for it does not mean it is add free and they refuse to get rid of the ads that I paid extra to not see” — ★☆☆☆☆ · English“Ads on Premium — Multiple ads just watching a movie when I pay $100+ a year to Amazon for over a decade. Going back to other streaming services” — ★☆☆☆☆ · English“Bring back No Ads — Prime video should be ashamed of themselves. Making us pay for some movies and now adding aggravating and interrupting ads. I’m on the verge of canceling just for the principal of the matter.” — ★★☆☆☆ · English

The ai search should be the separate search bar option” — ★★☆☆☆ · English“wasteful AI — I want to be able to search WITHOUT AI. What a waste.” — ★☆☆☆☆ · English

“Just get Disney+ — Ads are unbearable, the app’s laggy and I only watch like four things. It gets two stars just because it has Hazbin hotel, and The joy of painting with Bob Ross. Other than that this app is pretty hard to use. Just get Disney+ it has Bluey and no ads.” — ★★☆☆☆ · English“Hassle and Unsatisfactory — I am extremely disappointed in your app on my Sony TV. Every single other app works absolutely fine but this one works 1% of the time and glitches almost the rest. It also never gives me a QR code to log in saying there is an error. I’ve tried uninstalling the app and reinstalling it and I keep getting the same error. I’ve ended up just casting from my phone which is ridiculous considering…” — ★☆☆☆☆ · English“Underwhelming — It amazes me for how much money Bezos has extorted from his workforce and our pockets equating to some deranged success how utterly terrible the UIs are for Amazon Shopping and prime video. Just buggy, faulty, disorganized and the most undazzling ever. How is it possible? It’s been like this since the start too. Just another mediocre white man reigning supreme. All hail our billionaire overlords, I…” — ★☆☆☆☆ · English
