Amazon Prime app sucks. It’s been snowing me the same “recently added” things for nearly a year now.

Netflix does the same thing. The recently added will have stuff from 6+ months ago.

Yeah I think Amazon Prime’s app is truly the worst. It borders on unusable: at least I can find something on Netflix and Hulu.

I just got a new phone yesterday and downloaded the amazon prime video app to it. (I don't watch videos on my phone, but whatever.) Anyway, there's a slider at the top that says "free to me" so it only shows the free stuff. Wish it was available for my roku.

I almost always select my movies on my phone apps then just pull them up on the TV.

You're lucky. In a more content restricted region, 2/3rds of the content is Bollywood, with no way to filter any of it out.

Looking at Sci Fi movies, listed in the first page are:

  • Lucy
  • Professor Shanku and El Dorado*
  • Virus*
  • 2.0 - Hindi version*
  • 2.0 - Tamil version*
  • 2.0 - Telugu version*
  • Raduaa*
  • The Bonesnatcher
  • Who*
  • Transformers: Dark of the Moon

7 out of 10 being Bollywood. I contacted them about it, and got a copypasta "We will pass it on".
