Amazon Instant Video-Google TV is an Android app for accessing Amazon’s movie and television catalog on Google TV. It brings together rental and purchase options, purchased content management, title search, and viewing access for Amazon Prime members.
What content can be accessed?
The app provides access to more than 140,000 titles, including new-release movies and in-season television episodes. Availability is presented through Amazon Instant Video, with individual titles available to rent or purchase according to the source description.
Can purchased movies and episodes be found later?
Purchased movies and TV episodes are placed in Your Video Library. This gives users a central location for accessing the content associated with their purchases rather than needing to search the wider catalog each time.
What does the app provide for Amazon Prime members?
Amazon Prime members can access thousands of videos at no additional cost through the service. The source distinguishes this included Prime content from titles that are offered for separate rental or purchase.
What controls are available in the interface?
The app includes an interface for browsing the catalog, searching for specific titles, and managing videos in Your Video Library. These controls support both finding new content and returning to purchased movies or episodes.
Which Google TV devices can use it?
The app is designed for Google TV, but earlier Google TV devices may not be compatible. The source specifically mentions the Logitech Revue and Sony Beyond TVs and Blu-ray players as older devices that can still access Amazon Instant Video through the website instead.
Is the app free to install?
The app is described as free to download. That does not make every title free: the catalog includes content available for rental or purchase, while thousands of videos are available at no additional cost for Amazon Prime members.
