How is Amazon miniTV different from Amazon Prime Video?
The launch of Amazon miniTV comes at a time when Amazon already has a widely used video entertainment platform -- Prime Video. So how are these two different?
Unlike the Amazon Prime Video that is based on an Amazon Prime subscription, the miniTV is completely free, and it does not require a separate app. It can be used on the same app where you shop online.
Apart from this, Amazon Prime Video offers a collection of Amazon Originals, latest movies and TV shows, in English and nine Indian languages. Viewers can also access Prime Video on the app or stream it on their smart TVs.
Only on android phones for now
At present, Amazon miniTV will be available on Amazon India's shopping app for Android phones only.
"miniTV will be extended to iOS app and mobile web over the coming months," Amazon said.
