Watch Prime Video together, after Watch Party
Amazon shut down its own Prime Video Watch Party in April 2024, citing low usage, and the Twitch-hosted version went with it. FlickTandem fills the gap with synced playback plus the webcam chat Amazon never offered.

What to expect
Ad breaks on Prime Video
Prime Video shows ads on the standard tier unless you pay for the ad-free upgrade. During breaks sync pauses rather than fighting the player, and one seek afterwards realigns everyone.
- Prime Video renders its player inside a nested frame, which FlickTandem handles — that's why the extension asks to run on Amazon domains as well as primevideo.com.
- Amazon's own Watch Party allowed up to 100 people but had text chat only and no video.
How Prime Video behaves under sync
Prime Video is the one service here that runs its player inside a nested frame, so FlickTandem injects into sub-frames on Amazon domains specifically rather than everywhere. It also covers amazon.co.uk, .de, .co.jp and .in as well as primevideo.com, because Prime plays from the local Amazon domain in several countries.

Questions
Prime Video watch parties
Does this work on amazon.com rather than primevideo.com?
Yes. Prime Video plays from the local Amazon domain in several countries, so FlickTandem covers amazon.com, amazon.co.uk, amazon.de, amazon.co.jp and amazon.in alongside primevideo.com.
Is Prime Video Watch Party gone?
Yes. Amazon discontinued it on 2 April 2024, including the Twitch-hosted version. It supported up to 100 participants with text chat, and each still needed their own Prime subscription.
