After months of back-and-forth reports over the state of its free streaming service, Amazon has confirmed plans to shut down its Freevee app.
The Freevee app will officially close in August, at which point streamers will be directed to the Prime Video app for free and premium content from Amazon.
The Prime Video app for phones, tablets and smart TVs have offered content from Freevee for over a year, though access to Prime Video has historically been restricted to those with a Prime membership. Amazon says Freevee content within Prime Video will be accessible to members and non-members alike.
In addition to thousands of TV episodes and movies, Freevee also includes hundreds of free, ad-supported streaming TV channels, which will also move to Prime Video on a permanent basis.
