Posted July 3, 2020 Amazon Prime Video now joins Netflix with its own UWP app which can be downloaded from the Windows 10 Store app. The app allows you to steam Amazon Prime videos in high quality and download them for offline viewing. If you don't have the subscription, then you can use to directly rent or purchase your shows and movies directly from the app (if available in your country) You can download it here: https://www.microsoft.com/store/productId/9P6RC76MSMMJ Engadget reports: Quote It's been a long wait, but Windows 10 users can finally download Amazon Prime Video to their computer. The UWP app’s most notable feature is that it allows you to download content for offline watching. That will be handy once it's safe to travel again. [...] It's also possible to use the app to watch any movies and shows you bought through Amazon. Movies Anywhere subscribers can do the same as well. In some countries, the software also allows you to rent content, as well as subscribe to Prime Video Channels like HBO and Showtime. For the most part, those are all features you can access on Prime Videos web client, but they’re nice to have inside of an app. Source: https://www.engadget.com/amazon-prime-video-windows-10-now-available-210150549.html It must be noted, that when you get the app, by default, the video quality is set to "Better", and not the max "Best". So if you get it, be sure to go under the app settings and change the video quality settings. Personally, I have it installed it on my HTPC, with Netflix and Spotify. I use an air mouse, with a custom and use Windows 10 Tablet mode for a super fast and responsive smart TV + Steam Link. I also installed it on my Surface Pro for ease of use when using touch screen. And desktop for quick browsing. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options... Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Posted July 3, 2020 UWP applications are so rare that the release of one warrants its own news thread. Nice app though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options... Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

High Castle was great until they fired the showrunner at the end of season 2. After that it turned into trash. It got so bad that even the main actress said F it.
