Want to watch Prime Video on a laptop, even on a flight with no Wi-Fi? The Amazon Prime Video app brings streaming, title details, and offline downloads into a Windows app.
What can you find on a title page?
Browse Prime Video’s catalog and recommendations, then add titles to your watchlist for later. A movie or series page provides a synopsis, cast and director information, and IMDb details such as ratings.
How do offline downloads work?
Download supported movies or episodes to a Windows laptop and play them when an internet connection is unavailable. Downloads are limited to titles that offer the offline option.
Can you adjust playback and continue on another device?
During playback, select available language and subtitle options or change the image quality. Prime Video also syncs viewing progress, so you can continue a movie or series on another device from where you left off.
Does the app include other viewing options?
Prime Video Channels bring subscriptions to participating streaming services into the app. The catalog also includes movies available to rent or buy, alongside titles included with the service.
