Did you cancelNetflixbecause it was just too expensive?Amazonhas you covered. Its new streaming app gives you some of the very best bits ofAmazon PrimeVideo for free – and you don’t need a Prime subscription to access it. That’s because the newFreeveeapp is ad-supported – and so far at least it doesn’t blast you with endless ads either. I’ve been watching the daft but addictive crime drama Bosch Legacy on the service and I’m really impressed.
If you already have Amazon Prime then Freevee is already in the app or in your browser, but there’s also a dedicated app that you can run on (deep breath)iOS,iPadOSand Android,Apple TV,Roku, Android TV and Google TV, LG and Samsung Smart TVs, AmazonFire TV sticksand boxes,Xbox Series SandXbox Series X,PlayStation 4andPlayStation 5.
Freevee vs Amazon Prime Video: what’s the difference?
Disneymay have fallen out withNetflix, but it clearly hasn’t fallen out with Amazon: in addition to its own Amazon Studios productions, Amazon has signed a deal with Disney to offer films like Deadpool and Deadpool 2, Logan and The Post for limited periods. It also has over 75 streaming channels.
One of the interesting things about Freevee is that Amazon is experimenting with a new kind of product placement. Fans of US TV shows will be very familiar with the often very blatant product placement for phones, laptops and cars in their favourite series; according toAdWeek, Amazon has created a virtual product placement system that’ll enable it to insert such items virtually – and change them later.
