Prime Video's New UI: Navigating Personalized Recommendations and Add-On Subscriptions

Prime Video, Amazon's streaming service, is updating its user interface to improve the process of finding series and movie titles and subscription services. The new look aims to help customers seamlessly navigate the platform and quickly find something to watch. With a growing roster of originals like The Lord of the Rings: Rings of Power, as well as marquee programming via third-party subscription services, Prime Video offers a wealth of content but can be challenging to discover. Kam Keshmiri, VP of Design at Prime Video, stated that the improvements will present customers with an easy-to-navigate entertainment destination where they can discover new titles and enjoy favorites. The updates include more personalized recommendations powered by generative AI and a newly designed navigation bar with tabs for Home, Movies, TV Shows, Sports, Live TV, and active add-on subscriptions.

The goal of the update is to balance offerings available at no charge with a Prime subscription as well as subscription offerings of interest to subscribers. With more personalized recommendations powered by generative AI, customers will be shown content more tailored to their individual preferences. The navigation bar includes tabs for Home, Movies, TV Shows, Sports, and Live TV as well as for active add-on subscriptions like Max or Paramount+.

Prime Video houses more than 650 FAST channels and promises more clarity around what requires a separate purchase and is not included as part of a Prime subscription. Viewers can browse content by taste and other categories like Top 10 in the US or Trending Shows. Prime and add-on subscription logos for third-party outlets like Starz or Crunchyroll will appear on the hero and title cards of a movie or TV show, with the goal of informing customers about where the programming is originating.

Amazon is also updating its interface with AI recommendations and a new design that debuted in June. Within Prime Video, users can see content they've bought on Amazon digitally or their other subscriptions to services like Paramount+, Showtime, or Starz. The tech giant is promising more clarity around what requires a separate purchase and is not included as part of a Prime subscription.
