Bypass Prime Video Ads: Exploit These Strategies for Uninterrupted Streaming Experience - Ad-free Viewing on Prime Video
Are you sick of ads interrupting your Prime Video experience? Well, you're not alone! Here's the lowdown on how to stream without those annoying interruptions.
Offline Viewing with Prime Video
If you're using the Prime Video app on your smartphone, tablet, computer, or Mac, you can download many of the available contents. Download individual episodes or entire seasons and catch up on your favorite shows offline, ad-free. Remember, you can currently download content on up to two devices at a time!
An alternative method is to use a kids profile on Prime Video. According to Amazon, users accessing via a kids profile don't see any ads[1]. However, do keep in mind that only age-appropriate content is available through a kids profile, and purchases are not possible. This means popular shows like "The Boys" or latest action blockbusters might be off-limits using this method.
Be Aware of the Risks
There's a catch! Technically, it's possible to trick streaming services into thinking you're in another country using a Virtual Private Network (VPN). In theory, this could help you avoid ads, as customers in the Netherlands, Belgium, Luxembourg, or Portugal currently don't receive ads. However, be warned that using a VPN is discouraged by Amazon, and streaming providers generally don't approve of such practices.
Amazon's terms of service prohibit the use of technologies that hide or conceal your location[1]. It's unclear how strictly Amazon might enforce this in individual cases, but a ban on your account is not out of the question! Moreover, by violating the terms of use, Amazon reserves the right to revoke your access to the service at its discretion.
So, if you’re seeking a legitimate way to bypass ads on Prime Video, your best bet is to upgrade to the ad-free premium option for an additional fee[2]. There are no legal, technical bypasses for standard users on the regular Prime Video plan.
