Time to Dump the Amazon Firestick – Use These 4 Streaming Devices Instead
XDA Developers first spotted the new compatibility on Amazon's FAQ page for its Watch Party feature on Friday. However, Amazon notes that FireTV devices only work with Watch Party in the Prime Video app.
Previously, Prime Video subscribers could use the Watch Party feature with a computer browser, which isn't as movie night-friendly as watching it on your TV screen.
Amazon noted that playback is still not supported on mobile devices, but you can use the Watch Party chat to share the link with your friends and talk about key scenes of whatever you're watching. It's also important to note that anyone joining a Watch Party must have an Amazon Prime subscription, and they must separately purchase or rent the movie the Watch Party host chooses, if it's paid content.
