Can anyone tell me if I can access the Amazon app on my Now TV box?

Welcome to the forum.

 

No unfortunately neither Amazon Video nor Netflix are currently available on the NOW TV box, although they are available on the more expensive Roku boxes they are based on.

Surely NOW TV is a resource for accessing loads of services, some of them paid for, some of them free. So did Amazon refuse to pay what was required to join the 'in crowd'? Given their reach and their potential I'd say NOW would be foolish to shut them out. So Future Plans??

@Anonymous User Welcome to the forum. I'm guessing it's a more political reason that NOW TV boxes are built by Roku who also sell their full-featured Roku boxes, one of the key selling points is the fact they have a full range of streaming apps from Netflix, Amazon, Google Play, Rakuten etc. In order to ensure their products are competitive they won't want many of the 'big players' apps to also be on the cut-down NOW TV boxes.
