Amazon Prime Video is preparing to introduce a major change for its users, similar to Netflix’s recent updates. The streaming giant plans to reduce the number of devices subscribers can connect to simultaneously. The move is expected to come into effect in the new year and aims to curb the sharing of passwords between users.

Device limit to reduce

Currently, Amazon Prime Video allows users to access their accounts on up to 10 devices simultaneously. However, the company plans to reduce this limit to 5 devices soon. Additionally, users will only be allowed to log into the Prime Video app on two smart TVs at a time.

Despite these restrictions, Amazon will allow users to easily manage their devices. Subscribers can log out of unused devices to free up slots for new ones. This approach mirrors Netflix’s device management system, which also restricts password sharing and access to devices connected to the primary Wi-Fi network.

Amazon Prime Subscription Plans

Amazon Prime subscription offers different plans to users:

  1. Annual package: Rs 1,499 (includes Prime Video, Prime Music and other benefits).
  2. Three month package: Rs 599.
  3. Monthly package: 299 rupees.
  4. Mobile edition package: A specific mobile plan allowing access to Prime Video only on smartphones.

Subscribers can continue to enjoy benefits like exclusive content and fast delivery, but the reduced device limit may impact how families and friends share their accounts.

What this means for users

The change follows Netflix’s decision to strengthen its password sharing policies, signaling a trend among OTT platforms to focus on individual subscriptions. Amazon Prime Video users should prepare for this change and manage their devices accordingly to avoid disruption.
