VIZIO SmartCast TV Adds Amazon Prime Video for Quick Access to Popular Movies and TV Episodes

“With the recent launch of SmartCast TV, one of the things we’re most excited about is providing consumers with added entertainment options,” said Matt McRae, Chief Technology Officer, VIZIO. “Amazon Prime Video brings an array of content option to the screen, all accessible via a traditional remote via the Amazon Prime Video button. We’re glad to continue to bring in-demand content and solutions to our Canadian customers.”

The addition of Amazon Prime Video to VIZIO SmartCast TV gives consumers access to even more content options with features including select 4K Ultra HD titles on compatible displays featuring VIZIO SmartCast TV. Because the app is accessible directly from the display, Amazon Prime members now can easily access movies and TV episodes without the need for a separate streaming device.

VIZIO SmartCast TV allows users to browse new shows, music and then launch content directly from their displays with the touch of a button on the new 2017 remote. Featuring the V-button, the new 2017 remote provides one-button access to the VIZIO SmartCast TV user interface, along with shortcut keys to top apps, including Amazon Prime Video. For a limited time and while supplies last, owners of eligible VIZIO models can receive the new VIZIO SmartCast remote either free or for a nominal fee by calling VIZIO Support at 855-833-3221 (some conditions apply).
