Amazon to discontinue Freevee app in August

Amazon's ad-supported streaming app, Freevee, will be discontinued by August 2025, with the app accessible until September 2025.
After that, all the free shows, movies, and live TV you're used to watching there will only be available on Prime Video—no subscription needed.

TL;DR

If you love shows like Jury Duty or Bosch

If you love shows like Jury Duty or Bosch: Legacy, don't worry—they'll still be free.
You'll just need the Prime Video app and an Amazon account (no Prime membership required) to keep streaming them in the "Watch for Free" section.

Fewer apps to juggle means a smoother experience for everyone

Amazon wants to keep things simple by putting everything—exclusive series, licensed content, live TV, and ad-supported shows—in one place.
It's part of a bigger trend: fewer apps to juggle means a smoother experience for everyone.
