    @netflix You could really learn a thing or two from the @PrimeVideo app on how to do sign in properly

    @PrimeVideo please how do I cancel STACK TV? It’s horrible with all the adds. I have followed all the steps and tabs are missing where you can cancel it. They make it very tricky. I’ve tried emailing customer service but it won’t let me choose that as my issue.

    @PrimeVideo Watching Jack Ryan is so frustrating at the moment, the translations appear in the screen for half the episode and then stop. Is this something you/I can fix? Thanks

    @PrimeVideo Please, Please, Please, Please, Please fix the @Xbox app. It's not very easy to maneuver through the app. There is no way to search watch history for one, and two the app crashes or freezes before I can scroll through my list of purchased items. It's annoying.

    @PrimeVideo I purchased the Paramount+ channel through prime video and this is the first time I've ever had any problems. Whenever I watch a Paramount Plus show like Bull the remote control will not work when I pause and when I try to resume a video it goes back to the beginning

    @MaiselTV S2 finale is terrible. We’re back to square one? So S3 is just going to be a rehash of S1? Dreadful. Nope. I’m out. #MrsMaisel @PrimeVideo

    Not that I think anyone cares but me. But @PrimeVideo has a real white history problem in its catalog. They suggest things to me based on my viewing, so much of it is historical. And old as ****. The exceptionalism can be gobsmacking.

    I am still getting the connectivity issue with @PrimeVideo on my PS4- I've uninstalled and reinstalled, and I still need to exit the app, go to my internet settings, and test the internet settings for Prime to recognize the internet connection...

    @ColleenDoran @netflix @PrimeVideo I'm not even rural, but live in a hilly area. My internet speed is not so hot, even with cable WiFi. I get Netflix disks as well, the selection is getting pitiful. Just got a Roku because of these issues. Roku has been pretty decent so far. Don't know if it works in rural areas.

    @Xbox Please help @paramountplus and @PrimeVideo update the flags in their apps to keep the controller active while watching video with headphones plugged in.

    Thad (@wiredwiz) reported

    Hey @PrimeVideo and @paramountplus, why the hell am i paying for your service if CBS episodes are going to be constantly "unavailable"?? What am i paying for? Fix your crap service please, I'm about two days from writing off your channel and cancelling the subscription.

    @PrimeVideo Unfortunately #Coming2America was awful. The original is a masterpiece.

    Help @netflix and @PrimeVideo please give a fair warning at the beginning of movies and shows that have expressively LOUD elevator dings, smartphone key pad sounds and notification sounds! My dog has some weird anxiety will get up and walk away panting and shaking! #petanxiety

    Watching PRIVATE PARTS (1997) on @PrimeVideo even guys like Howard Stern had to work hard to get where they are today.

    The worst thing that FLACK on @PrimeVideo did was make @BradleyWhitford despicable. How dare you?

    @GSBCE1of4 @netflix @PrimeVideo We're rural. We don't have most of the services you would have elsewhere. We only have one local satellite provider. That's the problem.

    @PrimeVideo I think this speaks to the dearth of quality movies this year, not to take anything away from Ms. Bakalova.

    @PrimeVideo is there any reasons why american god's episode 9 is not working for France ? It's just showing a loeading mini screen next to the episode 8's one.
