Duey Baab (@dueybaab) reportedCall me crazy @PrimeVideo but when I search for a movie with my Prime subscription, I expect ONLY MOVIES AVAIL TO PRIME MEMBERS! Not other apps or streaming services. Your search algs are terrible & time consuming.
-
Joe Public (@findthemoron) reported@amazon @PrimeVideo @AmazonHelp please do something about the Prime app for LG Smart TVs! On the rare occasion there is something worth watching, it would be good to not be met with “no internet connection” (when Netflix, Youtube etc work fine) & “something went wrong” messages!

FoxAlfaBravo QI#192. 5 (@FoxAlfaBravo) reported@primevideo and @NVIDIASHIELD: no error code, the Shield reboots. Presentation timestamps maybe? leading to buffer overflow?

StealDealsz (@AdityaK72689275) reported@PrimeVideoIN @PrimeVideo How can I check if my streaming is in HDR ? In streaming quality it says 1080p HD (on best streaming setting). Can you let me know if my device is supported for HDR content? (Samsung S20 FE 5G)

Then I gotta go to the bank to make a deposit so I can buy more stonks. The days off are always just as busy as the work days lol

Anjan Das (@Anjan_das_) reportedSo apparently @amazonIN takes 6 different customer care executives to understand a simple issue of order return. The pandemic is hitting hard on everyone, isn't it? Or maybe we are still glued to @PrimeVideo and watching Family Man 2. Which one is it?
-
Anubha Das (@AnubhaDas2) reported@Anjan_das_ @amazonIN @PrimeVideo Seems like "we understand your problem" has become the daily white lie that they speak.

Elli0t (@Elli0tMrR0b0t) reported@PrimeVideo @PrimeVideoIN @AmazonStudios Amazon Prime Video lacks in promotion. Many good movies and series are unnoticed in prime video because of this. Amazon should work on promotion. #Amazon #zerozerozero #Blowthemandown

-
Dr Birgit Clark (@BirgitC) reported@RobertPraetzler @derspiegel Having watched ‚tank overhaul‘ on @PrimeVideo I wonder how owning a tank that is not operational & a collector‘s item is such a huge issue? The moral side of this or glorifying the ideology would be different but that’s not what the German courts seem to worry about here...😳

skry (@skry) reportedAmazon @PrimeVideo Categories megamenu is the worst one I've had to contend with. I never hit it on purpose and it takes over the whole window and sits there. I'm both glad and sad they can't hear what it makes me say every time. It's like the old Photoshop accidental launch.#ux

It's Brently FREE ASSANGE & Save the kids (@cyre2067) reportedDid anyone else watch #Breach on @PrimeVideo? What a dumpster fire. The visual effects were of such low quality, I found myself wondering if they blew their budget on getting Bruce Willis to star. The script was drab, direction seemingly absent, and the action redundant. Zzz.

Nina Osegueda, Queen of Hell 🤘 🌈 (@DuchessODork) reported@hulu @netflix @PrimeVideo (and the rest) I NEED YOU TO WORK ON YOUR SOUND DESIGN. I am so SICK of watching a show or a movie where you can barely hear someone talk, so you turn up the volume, then a LOUD *** NOISE to follow. Why do you do this?! It's not dramatic! It's ANNOYING!
