- Choose from thousands of titles available in Prime Video’s catalogue including Amazon Originals such as UK-produced series Truth Seekers, Good Omens, All or Nothing: Tottenham Hotspur and US hits likeBorat Subsequent Moviefilm,The Marvelous Mrs. Maisel, The Boys, Homecoming, Clancy’s Jack Ryan and many more
- Host and participate in Watch Party
- Provide synchronised playback which the host controls
- Use the chat function and built in stickers to communicate with participants
- Watch Party will accommodate up to 100 participants per session.
At present the Watch Party feature is only available on Desktop. To setup your first party head to the Prime website.
