I don't have the TV yet but am thinking about it a little more, bearing 
in mind that Apple is getting its fingers into the pie!

Is Prime Video available for Apple TV over here in the UK yet? If so, has 
anyone tried it!

Make sure you have direct touch in abled… One of the messages when
you first started tells you that you need that… That it all works
perfectly…

Perhaps I was just hearing things due to the late hour last night,
but it sounded like there were 2 voices of the same kind, like
Samantha, speaking on my Apple TV inside the Prime Video app. Next,
it took me a few swipes on the remote to get it to move anywhere.
The first few swipes would give me the message something like cannot
swipe in that direction. Finally, though I could activate the menus
and browse a few items in the categories, it was a bit frustrating.
Hopefully Voiceover support will improve in future versions. Would
be interested in other opinions since I played with it right before bed.

I have the Apple TV 3 and when I turned it on this afternoon, the Prime Video 
app was there. I signed in with my Amazon Id and everything seems to work fine. 
and there is no separate voice on mine either.

Are we sure this is available for the 3rd generation Apple Tv? That doesn't run

not gotten a fourth generation Apple tv and don't intend to. It just doesn't

it sounded like there were 2 voices of the same kind, like Samantha,
speaking on my Apple TV inside the Prime Video app. Next, it took me a

Hi,

Surprised nobody noticed this yet,  but when I saw I had 6 app
updates tonight I had a look and the long-awaited and announced app
for Amazon Prime Video for TVOS is now available.
The description of the iOS app said:

* Watch on your Apple TV directly by downloading the separate TVOS app.
Requires Apple TV Third Generation or later.
* Universal search now supported - search for prime videos using iOS
search/SIRI (US, Canada, Australia, Norway and Sweden only
* iPhone 10 support

This is good timing indeed since I just signed up for the 30-day
Amazon Prime trial, now that we have received our Echo devices and
the app is available it will be worthwhile to pay for it and keep it
going.

[Kliphton Miller]

you have to tell the app you want register your device online, it will present 
you with a code, and then you sign in to your account, and go too
amazon.com/mytv <http://amazon.com/mytv>
and enter the code, and you will be good to go.

RE: Amazon Prime Video now available for Apple TV Third Generation and newer

[Sieghard Weitzel]

I would say yes, but iOS/SIRI search is only available for now in the US, 
Canada, Australia, Norway and sweden.
Just check your Apple TV, if it's there then it's there.

Re: Amazon Prime Video now available for Apple TV Third Generation and newer

[Wayne Merritt]

I had a brief play with it on my 4th Gen Apple TV last night and
noticed a few things. First, there is a voice that starts speaking
when the app detects you are using VoiceOver, along with a VoiceOver
navigation voice. Also, these two voices appear to be the same.
Perhaps I was just hearing things due to the late hour last night, but
it sounded like there were 2 voices of the same kind, like Samantha,
speaking on my Apple TV inside the Prime Video app. Next, it took me a
few swipes on the remote to get it to move anywhere. The first few
swipes would give me the message something like cannot swipe in that
direction. Finally, though I could activate the menus and browse a few
items in the categories, it was a bit frustrating. Hopefully Voiceover
support will improve in future versions. Would be interested in other
opinions since I played with it right before bed.

Amazon Prime Video now available for Apple TV Third Generation and newer

[Sieghard Weitzel]

Hi,

Surprised nobody noticed this yet,  but when I saw I had 6 app updates tonight 
I had a look and the long-awaited and announced app for Amazon Prime Video for 
TVOS is now available.
The description of the iOS app said:

* Watch on your Apple TV directly by downloading the separate TVOS app. 
Requires Apple TV Third Generation or later.
* Universal search now supported - search for prime videos using iOS 
search/SIRI (US, Canada, Australia, Norway and Sweden only
* iPhone 10 support

This is good timing indeed since I just signed up for the 30-day Amazon Prime 
trial, now that we have received our Echo devices and the app is available it 
will be worthwhile to pay for it and keep it going.

For those who want to read more, here are 4 links to articles from respected 
tech sites:
Amazon Prime Video app rolling out to Apple TV App Store - 
9to5Mac
Apple and Amazon Confirm Amazon Prime Video on tvOS Supports 4K HDR and 'Up 
Next' in TV App - Mac 
Rumors
Amazon Prime Video finally arrives on Apple TV, months after original 
announcement - Ars 
Technica
First look: Amazon Prime Video for Apple TV launches on tvOS App Store - 
AppleInsider


Happy watching,
Sieghard
