Amazon Freevee, formerly known as IMDb TV, is now available on Google TV on Android TV OS devices in the UK, with availability on Android mobile devices coming later this month.
The Amazon Freevee app will launch across Google TV and other Android TV OS devices, including Sony, Panasonic, Hisense, Phillips, Sharp, Vestel, Nvidia, Xiaomi, TCL and other brands, Advanced Television reported.
Meanwhile, according to a press release issued by Amazon Studios in April, which announced the rebranding of the ad-supported IMDb TV, the company had said after a successful launch in the UK in September 2021, Freevee will continue its international expansion with a launch in Germany later this year.
Freevee will grow its Originals slate by 70 percent in 2022, including the spinoff of the longest-running Original series for Prime Video, ‘Bosch: Legacy’; a new home-design series; ‘Hollywood Houselift’ with Jeff Lewis; Greg Garcia’s comedy series ‘Sprung’ and the Australian crime drama ‘Troppo’.
“Over the past two years, we have seen tremendous growth for our AVOD service and are committed to bringing our audiences premium, free-to-consumer content,” Jennifer Salke, head of Amazon Studios, had said, adding, “We’re looking forward to building on this momentum with an increasing slate of inventive and broadly appealing Originals, and are excited to establish Freevee as the premier AVOD service with content audiences crave.”
Previously, Amazon’s free streaming service announced greenlight orders for ‘Primo’, the coming-of-age comedy from Michael Schur and Shea Serrano, and ‘On Call’, the half-hour procedural drama from prolific TV producer Dick Wolf.
