How can I use Movies Anywhere with VidAngel?
While VidAngel isn’t partnered with Movies Anywhere, you can still use it to enhance your experience on our service. Movies Anywhere is a free platform that syncs your purchased movies across providers like Fandango at Home (formerly Vudu), Apple TV/iTunes, Google Play, and Amazon Prime Video. Since VidAngel links to your Amazon account, any eligible movies you own on other connected services will appear in your Amazon library—allowing you to watch some of them with filters on VidAngel.
How to connect Movies Anywhere to Amazon
- Create an account on www.moviesanywhere.com
- Connect to any streaming services you have access to. Make sure one of those services is Amazon Prime Video.
| NOTE: Connect both your AppleTV and Amazon accounts through Movies Anywhere to access purchased movies from your AppleTV/iTunes library! |
