Amazon Freevee: Movies/Live TV

Good selection of content, especially if you want to catch up on hit series from the past, or get a taste of current Prime series. I’ve been using this app for a couple of years and the ads have improved in terms of variety and quality - not like some who beat you over the head with the same three commercials. I wish Freevee allowed Picture in Picture, and rewinding can be a little awkward - but all in all I enjoy it.

Mostly great interface, mostly great content on the Apple TV app. However, your recent changes to the “delete my data screen” make it difficult to rewatch series television because once the queue considers episodes watched it skips them during a binge rewatch. Used to be able to clear that knob and rewatch. i don’t care whether you keep my data. But, Please add a rewatch knob for season AND for series***. Recent changes broke it, and the way it is now significantly decreases the appeal of this app. 2. Also, the live tv interface needs work. It doesn’t have a guide for more than one upcoming episode/feature, it doesn’t have a way to group favorite channels, it doesn’t categorize and subgroup to simplify searches. Ideally one would be able to sort/move preferred categories to the top, and preferred channels into a favorites/my queue/usual suspects kind of container that becomes the default landing when live tv is selected, and is exited with deliberate selection, NOT by finger slide on the remote (bad) Random walk through 400 channels is really no bueno. 3. Finally, since you’re concerned with keeping my data, a “don’t show me this again unless i search for it” knob would be very helpful to us both at both the category and show/channel level. Thanks for listening. Cheers *** By the way, PRIMO is awesome, and we could rewatch it every week!

Pro: I really like that when you start a show the bar at the bottom not only shows how long it will be but also where the commercial breaks will be. I also really appreciate that when the commercial break starts, it tells you how many commercials it’ll be and how long the entire break will be (ex: 1 out of 6, 2:15). However… Cons: I feel like I’m constantly rewatching commercials! Show just came back from commercial break and you missed what someone said? Wait at least 10 sec to hit that button that goes back 10 sec. Otherwise it’ll go back to before the commercial started and you get to watch them all again! (My luck is that this never happens after a break with only 1 or 2, usually I’m stuck rewatching 6!). Also don’t accidentally hit the far left end of that line at the bottom that shows your progress. If you do, it’ll take you back to the beginning of the show. No biggie, you’ll just fast forward right? Only after you rewatch more commercials! Thankfully not every one from every break, but at least a few. I don’t think I should have to rewatch commercials to get back to the same spot I was at 2 sec ago before I accidentally hit a button. Overall I like the app, but the price you pay for it being free is A LOT of commercials!

I love the service and I'm thankful Otherwise I would have nothing to watch right now. I just wish that the auto play played my next list and not random shows. Then I'm stuck with that show on my continued list. I watch the last episode and it's still there, I close it out open it back watch again. Still there. Need a remove from playlist or history like Tubi. We had the tribunal judge show auto play, and we get more episodes daily to watch. We hate this type of show and can't remove it. Then we started some shows and didn't like it like we thought we would, now they keep showing on my list. Also, if I like a movie or dislike it, it needs to be removed. I have had this account about a year, I still have the same shows I have liked and watched months ago be the same recommendations each day. Needs A new refresh to the set up. Otherwise I would give a perfect 5 star.

I use freevee through Prime Video to watch shows that are unavailable anywhere else. It frequently freezes if I have to pause it, and when I press play again it starts the entire episode over. When you miss something and have to use the 10 sec back feature, if it was near a previous ad you have to watch ALL the ads again. It’s an insane amount of ads. Like minutes of them each time. Probably 10 minutes of each episode is just ads. It also cuts the end of the shows off prematurely, which is just ridiculous. Not to mention how glitchy the subtitles feature is. Almost every time you use the back feature it turns them off and you have to turn them back on again. Idk how it’s gotten a 4.7 rating. There must be people being paid to leave good reviews cus this platform is HORRIBLE.

I recently got this app to watch jury duty and didn’t experience any problems at first. I decided to leave in the middle of an episode, and return later to finish watching. When selecting the episode I previously left, the screen never fully loaded, and then said there was no internet connection. I selected the second episode of the season, and it loaded perfectly fine. So, I continued to watch the second episode, but left in the middle like I previously did with the first episode. I instantly new I made a mistake, and now the second episode won’t fully load. I deleted the app and redownloaded it to see if that helped. I also restarted my phone to see if that was the problem. Neither worked, and I still cannot watch the first or second episode of jury duty, as it is unable to load.

Freevee options are good, same as Tubi, Pluto for many and a few great but way too many commercials. Even though paid for no commercials I agree with many, why paying monthly if commercials (just billed). But, the fact you cannot remove live TV (you do not wish to continue), you cannot rewatch shows without getting trapped to watch all, shows do not always load, commercials are too repetitive is beyond annoying. I like returning to some shows that I want to watch episodes. I do not like getting stuck forced to find a way to remove anything I don’t like.

Freevee offers many different types of films and tv shows with more coming in very frequently. One thing which I personally enjoy compared to other free streaming platforms is that they tell you when they will be showing an ad instead of taking you by surprise. If you want a streaming service that just works, stream free with Freevee!

I really like this app because it has such a good selection of titles, ones that I haven't seen on other free streaming platforms. However, I have just one thing that is keeping me from giving this all 5 stars. I would really love a picture-in-picture feature. I like watching shows or movies while working but sometimes I have to use my phone while working and since FreeVee has no picture-in-picture feature, I can't watch a show/movie that's on FreeVee. I'm hoping to see this update in the future!

I used to enjoy Freevee; however, since installing the most recent iOS updates on both my iPhone and iPad, Freevee WILL NOT WORK on either device. I've un/reinstalled the app on both devices several times, I've powercycled both devices, and I downloaded Freevee's most recent update on both. Each time I try to restart Freevee on either device, I receive an error that says "Oops! Something went wrong". All other apps have worked perfectly on both devices since their updates, with the exception of Freevee. I don't know what else to do to make it work properly, but an app shouldn't be so much trouble just because of an iOS update.

I was excited to see that the 2012 crime drama, “Safe House”, starring Ryan Reynolds and Denzel Washington was available (via IMDB) on FreeVee. I did a search for “Safe House” on the app and none of the screen grabs for the three matches showed Ryan Reynolds or Denzel Washington. I was confused. The first match showed Patrick Stewart and Kimberly Williams (1998 movie with same title) but the description was for the 2012 movie. I played the movie and the opening credits confirmed the problem. The 1998 movie “Safe House” was uploaded into the 2012 movie “Safe House” spot. The 2012 movie doesn’t actually exists on FreeVee. I did searches for Ryan Reynolds and Denzel. Washington and only the 1998 movie appears in the search results.

This could be an amazing app. It has some great content. But the lack of picture-in-picture capability renders it mostly useless. In 2023, the best streaming apps have picture-in-picture capability. They recognize people have things to do in the background and need the ability to continue to check email, work in documents, etc. while continuing to stream content in a mini window usually at the bottom of their device. The addition of picture-in-picture capability would draw more users to this app.

This app is currently not that good. As others have said, ads are done in an annoying way, videos load slowly, and the app is slow in general. This app definitely needs a lot of work before being comparable to other streaming apps. I also found a fun problem today. I was watching a show that has a short 30 second intro and the app gave me the option to skip it. I clicked on the skip button and the video had to load again which took 3 minutes. Cool feature.

From Fringe to the hacky Russian/Soviet version of the Avengers in Guardians , Freevee offers some different free movies and shows that you won’t find elsewhere. It also let’s me stream throughout the night without having to prompt it to keep going after a few episodes (something that drives me up a wall with some competitors).

I understand there may be a certain show you really wanna watch , but even with paying for my streaming services I keep finding my self watching FreeVee! Between them and the Roku channel , I’m about ready to cancel my subscriptions for now and enjoy some great shows. Definitely recommend. Watch Corner Gas! It’s funny !

Watching series it flips to next episode @ end of every episode and you have to constantly backtrack to watch the correct episode previously🙄. Few other glitches like Little icon of next up -stays on the screen on the bottom right hand corner I never goes off the screen. It’s been like this for a long time please fix it??? other than that you have pretty decent movies selection👍🏼

Seriously, its like watching ads with a sprinkle of the actual show/film. First, it starts off with a series of 3 ads at the beginning of the show. Then, increases to 5 ads the next ad break. Lastly to 7 ads, its annoying and highly frustrating. I understand the shows/movies are free but the constant ads make the app highly unpleasant while using. There HAS to be a better solution than the constant ad breaks like maybe putting some/most at the start so the film isn’t being repetitively interrupted. Very upsetting.

The app was working great at first watching S1E1 of Jury Duty, but then I got an error that I couldn’t use screen mirroring to watch it on my TV. Fair enough. So I turn off the screen mirror, but now the episode won’t load at all. I only get a spinning circle and after several minutes of waiting, I’ll get a pop up that there is no internet connection. I tested with Episode 2 and it loaded and began playing right away. I’ve done all troubleshooting and still can’t finish watching the first episode.

Overall, this app is getting better and better. But there is a Huuuuge omission in the fact that one cannot favorite channels! There are lots of channels, really a lot, and if your favorite channel is near the bottom of the list, every single time you open the app, you have to scroll and scroll and scroll to find your channel. Come on!! Just let us favorite the channels we like, and have them appear at the top of the list… easy peasy!! Please add this!!! Thanks 🙏

The video interface is a little clunky. The real problems are that certain things NEVER get removed from “continue watching“ and that you have about two seconds at the end of a movie or series to exit out of it or Freevee will autoplay some garbage show that it’s trying to push. That leads to the “continue” queue being clogged with shows you’ve completed and dog$h!+ like Judge Judy that started playing while you weren’t paying close enough attention.

Yeah, this app is free and that’s about all you can say for the content there is no way to sort and filter as an example under the live content Deb got new streams, mixed with all sorts of other dated old TV programs and re-runs at least if the menu system would allow you to separate live content according to category would be great. Suggested they look at other services and apps, like Pluto would be a good example of a functional user interface.

look, every app I download, and I mean EVERY, is so amazing, but the only single flaw they have is ads. I LOVE Freevee; everything is free and I love all the options for shows and movies, but like I said, too many ads. And I mean, there is not an ad like every minute but it’s pretty often. Please understand that I LOVE Freevee and hope you do to, thank you! 😊😊😊

Fruity is truly a nice program with great movies. That’s the pro. The con is that there are a lot of advertisements. They don’t last incredibly long however, there are a lot of them! As a business person myself, I realize that they have to pay for this service somehow. So I let it pass and enjoy the movies.

FreeVee has changed the way I watch television and I love All the ones I pay for and HATE ADS, but I am so totally willing to watch ads, just so I can see Lost from start to finish finally. Then I started seeing more original content and I knew that at least 3 of my pay for apps gotta go. Thank you FreeVee!!!

As I noticed with most high end free entertainment websites the content is unedited and you have commercials. Having grown up in the 50s and 60s commercials gave you quick breaks or left you hanging onto cliffhanger moments during your favorite shows. Commercials are okay because we're still viewing uncensored and high quality programs. Keep it up.

It’s a good app with a good selection of tv and movies I’ve been using it watch mad men but sometimes it has trouble loading even if I have a good connection and with the new update it will sometimes do this this where is I have bad connection the main menu will go back to the old setup from before the update which I found weird.

This is a pretty good app BUT it’s not letting me watch the third episode of the show I’m trying to watch it says it’s not available and it’s really annoying me it’s literally the only reason I downloaded the app and I’ve tried it three different time at three different times of the day maybe more time other then that it isn’t so bad but I am frustrated

I find many older movies that are not available on other sites. There are times when the commercials just stop then you have to start over again. Tonight streaming issues multiple times. Overall a good place for free movies

It looks like a lot of folks were seeing the same issue - the player was stuck on a particular episode after leaving the app and returning…. The latest app version fixed the issue!

Freevee is awesome 👏 I love this app I was watching a movie and it had perfect quality I recommend you to download this app it’s better than anything expept for Netflix but it’s still really good 👍🏼 I give this app 5 stars ✨ because for how good it is keep up your good work freevee 🫶🏼

I watched one episode just fine, started episode 2 and it never loads, just get the spinning circle ( I’ve tried with internet and just my data plan ) when it does load it will get to an ad and keep playing the ads over and over and then freeze. Would love to continue to watch the rest of the season but it seems impossible at this point after an hour of trying to get it to load.

Let’s start by saying that I actually subscribe to multiple streaming services, but Freevee actually beats many: has some great movies and TV Shows (Fringe is the best). Does have ads but so do many other steaming platforms (but Freevee is free), so that makes it much better!

I frequently watch Tubi for movies and occasionally use Pluto, and neither “free with ads” apps have nearly as many commercials as Freevee. It’s has to be about the same or worse than watching a movie on a broadcast channel. As a whole Prime adding ads even though we already paid for ad free content and then this sub-app having way too many ads seems par for their course.

Nothing plays on this app, nothing. No matter which show or movie I tap on, FreeVee gives an error message saying “playback error, restart app.” i’ve restarted the app, I restarted my device, yet nothing works. My iOS is updated, and my app version of Freevee is updated, yet nothing on the app will play. Ridiculous. Too bad. This kind of unreliability is going to hurt a lot of shows that people might want to watch. I’m uninstalling this clunker of an app immediately.

the ads are probably the most annoying i’ve ever dealt with on any app. 4-6 ads every 5-7 minutes is a little ridiculous. if the movie and tv show selection was top tier, then i could probably move past it, but it’s not really anything to rave about. movie selection is not great, tv show selections are definitely better but still mid. at least they have sailor moon. not my favorite app to say the least.

I am very impressed with Freevee. There is all kinds of good stuff on their shows if you were to leave then documentaries and everything I could think of. I love the variety of movies and shows I can see here.

Freevee has a large variety of tv shows and movies to select from free of charge. Also, you are not bombarded with annoying ads (like many other similar apps). 10/10 would recommend this to a friend.

From the comments I’ve read it seems to be the same reoccurring problem with this app. Once you leave or you are interrupted from watching a show the episode just decides to never play again. I left the app to answer a message and when I went back to continue watch Jury Duty the episode won’t play. I hope they can fix this problem soon.

Was really enjoying app until yesterday, November 1. I’m ok with commercials since viewing is free. But … since November 1 commercial breaks are about every 3 minutes, which is a bit too frequent. Can no longer use the app or recommend it to anyone. Too bad.

I couldn't find a way to delete "Continue watching" so. I deleted the app and then reinstalled it. Guess what? The same show showed up in the "Continue watching" area. Come on developers, give us a way to clean up our screens. The show I started watching is a TV show with many episodes so advancing to the end hoping the show would go away only brought up the next show!!!!!

I love that this is a completely free app where I can watch movies, shows, or even documentaries. Most apps that say free require you to at least put a card on file but I was not asked for that. That is very appreciated.

I have reinstalled the app several times, it constantly gives message that pw is incorrect so you go through the password reset and then the verification process doesn’t work, after you use all the temp login time it just keeps kicking you and you will never be able to use it again GARBAGE. All the other reviews read like a self promo blog don’t believe it after the trial period it just stops working

This app offers a lot of movies and tv shows. It is as good as any other entertainment app for that reason. What I do not like is that you cannot delete a tv series off the continue watching list. I watched every episode and it will not come off the continue watching list.

Thank you so much I had to cut off my TV because I couldn’t afford the bill anymore. But because of you guys I get to watch shows it’s absolutely wonderful. Thank you very very much.

Wish scrolling was faster between channels especially watching live tv. A pop up player is not needed but would help.

This app is awesome! The only reason I didn’t give it 5 stars is due to the lack of a minimize screen feature while using the app on my phone. Hopefully it will be made available soon 🤞

I was watching a movie and the commercials are every seven minutes like clockwork. Someone could be speaking in mid scene and they cut right to commercials. commercials ran around around three minutes, so it really stretches out movie substantially. Streaming channel needs a lot of work. I would never pay for it.

The App needs to work on when to show ads other than that I love it. Please work on when to show ads while watching either a movie or a show. Thank you Tee

Love the show selection, and not an excess amount of commercials (unlike Pluto which has way too many!!!) BUT…whenever you watch a show you’ve have previously watched, it starts at the END and you have to rewind EVERY TIME!! Very frustrating!!! PLEASE FIX!!

The user interface is cumbersome, and there's an excessive amount of advertising compared to other platforms. It feels like the ads outnumber the actual content you're trying to watch, prompting many to uninstall the app. Additionally, the app lacks support for voice dictation in search, and it doesn't allow you to minimize it on your phone while continuing to play content.
