Dim while searching and title on half screen??

Its not enough that with my Amazon Prime membership you remove a huge amount of content from the Childrens video (like Sesame Street, bubble guppies, Dora, etc.) I am forced to buy for my children to watch. NOW I BUY the shows, and with the 4/27/2016 the screen dims while in huge letter the title pops on the screen as I fast forward and rewind ??? Then takes about 3 seconds to resume to normal viewing?????that is horrible?..thank you for making my autistic child freak out !!! WHY DO I NEED THE TITLE TO BLOCK THE SCREEN WHILE SEARCHING??? And dim the video too???

Super inconvenient

It would be sooooo much better if you could actually rent from the app, instead of having to go to the website! On the website, it can be difficult to tell if a movie is rentable, because of all the different purchase options. Would rate 5 stars, if this was adjusted! But for now, 2. Same thing with the subscription options.

Other Device Support

I love Amazon but you need to allow us to watch Prime Video on more devices, namely the Chromecast as you promised back in 2015 as well as the Apple TV. I will never want to watch movies and shows on my phone or iPad and do not want to be restricted to viewing only your Fire TVs. Also, some content is great but overall the content is rather limited in scope. Hopefully the library becomes larger over time.

Chromecast & other flaws

1) App lacks Google Chromecast support. 2) App lacks the ability to cast/mirror screen to Amazon Fire TV. 3) App lacks the ability to filter prime/free videos from paid videos. 4) Amazon Instant Video app is not available on Apple TV. 5) Amazon Fire TV lacks universal search; across all video streaming apps- Netflix, Hulu, Smithsonian Channel, etc. 6) Amazon Fire TV lacks immediate video start with ASAP across all video streaming apps- Netflix, Hulu, Smithsonian Channel, etc.

No AppleTV 4 Support

A pointless update and total letdown.

Broken airplay

New version broke streaming to Apple TV over airplay

Need Comcast support for premium channels like Showtime and Starz

Bugs: Alarm doesnt work properly when watching videos. Slow performance when switching between shows. Lots of lag. When will I be able to use my Comcast subscription for Showtime and Starz inside of Amazon instant video? I can do this on my Apple TV. Speaking of Apple TV...hmm? User story: As a xfinity subscriber I want to use the Amazon app for all video content so that I dont have to use ~5 different apps to watch movies and tv series. You still have the best fast forward and rewind controls of any video player app. Your years ahead of Netflix or HBO go... Dont change this UX for anyone. Helpful? Vote below!

Still no Apple TV support

Amazon said in November 2015 that an Apple TV app was coming. Five months later, its still MIA.

Terrible

Just give us an Apple TV app for Christs sake! This is such BS. Im so sick of Amazon.

Dark Screen!

Not at all a fan of the dim screen upon opening UI. Every time I rewind or pause or accidentally touch the screen it dims. I liked the way it was before!

Best movie place ever

I think you should totally buy this its so dang awesome

Worst

Worst update ever, no more AirPlay.
