JioFiber set-top box to receive support for Amazon Prime Video

Prime Video on JioFiber is not free and requires a subscription

Other OTT streaming apps on JioFiber include Disney+Hotstar, SonyLiv and more.

Here is some news for JioFiber set-top box owners that should make them happy. The service has finally gotten Prime Video onboard after the app was seen missing after the launch of JioFiber. But, there is a catch here in that users will still have to buy Prime Video to access the service’s content. The service is not free. The Amazon streaming service comes with excellent shows like tales from the Loop, the man in the High Castle and much, much more. If you’ve got the app on your JioFiber set-top box, here are a few fantasy movies on Prime Video that you can start checking out. 

JioFiber finally receives Amazon Prime Video support

JioFiber was rather empty when it came to OTT services like Prime Video but has steadily been building its library by adding more and more OOT streaming services. Other streaming services on JioFiber set-top boxes include Disney+Hotstar, SonyLiv, ALT Balaji and many more. The service still does not have Netflix support but worry not, as it should be added toJioFiber’s roster soon enough. It’s good to see the service add more OTT streaming services as this will only increase the viability of JioFiber. 

In other news, Reliance Jio seems to be looking to take on video conferencing apps like Zoom, Google Meet and more with Jio Meet. The company’s very own video calling app has not been launched yet but going by how Reliance does things, we expect an announcement soon. As previously reported and as a part of the #CoronaHaaregaIndiaJeetega campaign, Reliance Jio is also offering new customers a base plan of 10Mbps without charging any service charge. For existing JioFiber users, the broadband provider is doubling the data which is a part of the plan. 

As the lockdown is extended for two more weeks, it looks like we all need a bit of entertainment in our lives and with the addition of Prime Video to the JioFiber set-top box, there is now more content to consume for JioFiber users.
