Everything is good but audio quality

I wish it had processing so you could hear everything and that things did not jump out at you or be whispering at times that you cannot hear it even with the audio jacked up all the way. Wish it had Linear Acoustic audio processing.

Usable but needs work

Overall, I’m happy with the Prime Video experience and content (and just Amazon, in general). I do have some app issues/requests to share, though: 1. Please support subtitle presets. The default bright white is terrible, and causes high contrast problems in dark scenes among other things. The config page says it affects all devices, but it’s conspicuously absent on iOS. 2. Please stop reshuffling video tiles on the Browse tab every time I add or remove a video from my watchlist. I’m sure amazon machine learning algorithms update in real time, but it’s quite jarring and violates expectations. 3. Please fix the memory leak that causes a crash after browsing a large number of titles across the various (annoyingly shifting as per 2.) categories.

Homecoming

What was good: Acting was good What was not: Too much gimmicky photography intended to add suspense—I fast-forwarded through loads of waste, too long on atrium scenes, too long camera focused on someone walking up or down stairs, unnecessary closeups on insignificant things, distracting flashbacks...Poor editing. Main dislike: Overall story was weak. Being a vet, the concept of caring for PTSD caught my attention, then it turned into another stale, Hollywood anti-government/paranoia theme.

Can’t Rent From App

You have to use a computer or navigate to amazon on a web browser to rent movie. Stupid. Amazon is designed to take your money but they won’t let you rent movies with a freaking movie app.

Downtown Abby

Loved watching it again—this time the UK version. I noticed small changes but no drastic changes in stories. The Hairstyles were more UK—no American flapper style, a little jazz music. I have been binge watching most every night—six seasons all total. Eukele Lady

Airplay Does NOT Work!! No longer allows playback of downloaded Prime Video movies via Airplay!

Just updated the Amazon Prime Video app and now it announces that each of my downloaded videos can no longer be viewed via Airplay. My only option is to view via live streaming via my cellular data. Apparently this happened back in December 2018 with Version 6.5 update. Lots of critical reviews on this issue since then but still no fix. Makes the app worthless for those of us with slow cellular/costly internet only.
