As much as I likeAmazon Prime Video, I don’t really like the interface. It feels very dated compared to the likes ofApple TV+, so I’m pleased to see thatAmazonis giving it a much-needed makeover. The new Prime Video interface is coming to streaming devices,Android phonesand thebest smart TVs, too.
The main difference is that the navigation menu has changed. Prime Video’s existing interface is clearly based on Amazon-style website navigation, but this new version works better on non-computer devices. There’s an icon-based navigation bar down the left hand side, making it much easier to access the different sections such as Find, Home, the Prime Video Store, Live TV and then My Stuff, which is where your lists of purchases and your watch lists live.

A better look for Prime Video on all your kit
If you have aFire TV stickthe new interface is going to look very familiar, because it’s clearly following the same handbook as the recently updatedFire TVinterface. And if you don’t, you should get the new interface this week as it rolls out onAndroid, withiOSand the web interface following shortly afterwards.
I think this is a vast improvement: the existing Prime Video interface feels ancient but this update makes it much fresher – and more importantly, much more viewer-friendly.
