Amazon Prime Video 12+

I love the prime video app overall. For the most part it remembers where you left off on shows from device to device. I can save my favorites, and it recommends shows for me.
The first flaw that bugs me, if I pause the movie with around 5 minutes left, and come back to it after the screen shuts off, it always skips to the next episode and cuts off my last few minutes. This happens on my Galaxy, Firestick and iPad, so I know it’s not my device . Drives me crazy.
Next flaw is I can’t clear my watch history on just one show. I’m rewatching some shows and lose my place because it shows that I’ve seen all the episodes. I don’t want to clear my entire watch history, then I’ll lose my place in current shows. I wish this was a feature. If this feature exists, I haven’t seen anywhere to click to make this happen.
Other than these two complaints, I enjoy prime video very much!

The recent decision to include ads without paying the extra 35 bucks a year was disappointing. At the time I decided to get paramount + through prime channels. The ads were horrendous. To the point that I decided to bite the bullet and pay the overloads their penance. So paying the 2.99 didn’t affect the ads in the slightest. And the ads weren’t positioned where the ad breaks are in the show. Middle of a gunfight boom 5 minutes of ads. After painfully finishing 1883 I started to rethink everything. I canceled Paramount + and have considered canceling prime. Let me be clear. Ads are the worst and there is nothing more triggering. If I wanted to watch ads I can watch any of the free services with ads. If I’m paying nearly 200 dollars a year for a streaming service I’d better not have a hint of an ad. I will try subscribing to paramount + in the future through Apple TV. But if it has ads as well I might have to leave Paramount behind. The idea of buying shows seems like a much better idea at this point. Not much discovery but my generation hates ads. Buying digital seems a scam as well even though it’s the most convenient. Scammy is the new game it seems. If it wasn’t for Sheridan I’d leave paramount on the shelf.

Purchased a lot of movies. The app still recognizes the purchase but My Stuff/Purchases will only display 20 titles. Resorting from recent to A-Z or Z-A will display a different set but again limited to 20. Whoever thought that limiting purchase display list to 20 instead of being able to scroll though all purchases should be fired for incompetence.

Tried to report but it sends you to a chat feature. After being bounced to several people, I got the standard uninstall and reinstall the app and restart ipad. Neither worked. Tried to report again and once more bounced to several different people in chat. They seem to be unwilling to report as a new bug when they fail to solve the issue. Their work around is to go to web address to access purchased movies/shows given My Stuff/purchases is broken. Alternative if you remember every purchase you can use search feature to find it and finally have the option to play. No more purchases until they get this fixed. The work arounds are annoying and take more time when it worked before the update.

F on the last update and D- on chat experience.
