4.0 out of 5 stars Bloomberg fixed Playing VIDEO/ LIVE TV after "Update" v 3.0.9, with delay from Tech Support
Reviewed in the United States on June 12, 2020
Bloomberg does have a wonderful team of journalists! I absolutely love their news coverage for Wall Street and Politics.

Finally last month and in time for Thanksgiving 2021 their Customer Service responded to our Technical Support Issue of several months on Amazon Prime Firestick App. Better late than never, but I am glad I was able to follow up via Numerous Listed Channels emails and finally called them and reached a very helpful person who escallated to the correct channel to reach Amazon Prime Firestick App Developers at Bloomberg.

Bloomberg Amazon App v3.0.9 didn't work at All, it didn't Play Anything, Any of the Videos or Shows listed on the App. Kept getting an Error Message: "Playback Error" which was reported for over 4 months (via their Website Chat, via several emails monthly, and not sure why none of these emails were even acknowledged until we called). This is all on Fire TV Stick 2nd Generation (OS 5.2.8.4) and Fire TV Version 6330065.1.

Bloomberg Amazon App used to freeze often on Amazon Firestick (during commercials) since May 2021 and in Prior year 2020 after an apparent new application releases which were not tested.

The TV App itself under Help Section doesn't list an email or a phone number to contact them with technical support issues and their Website Feedback is combersome to find their Amazon Prime Firestick App Developers Contact Email (I eventually found it on the Feedback website, but that Feedback was simply ignored for months as maybe it was not even gone anywhere outside the chat. So we followed up with a phone call which we should have thought of right when first noticing the issue instead of emailing). Sadly, on the Website there is not a live Chat Person to report this to for Amazon Firestick App.

But Bloomberg show content and journalism is great!

When App does work there is a beautiful sidebar with news and Bottom Headlines Preview (although we wish this preview was a little bit slower). Another wish would be to restore TV Schedule on a separate Tab (as it used to be 2 years ago).

My only remaining issue is unlike several years ago, it's Impossible to Zoom in the TV screen and make it full Screen as one can Experience if they would like to focus on the TV content without helpful distructions o:) such as quotes and Indexes, etc (Full Screen Mode was taken away a year or two ago). They should give users an Option as they used to to View Full Screen and switch to Multitasking Minimized Screen with parallel information around. Most old shows which you can see online would not be on their Bloomberg TV+ Amazon Firestick App, but many recent shows and clips are available on Amazon Prime Firestick App. Streaming tickers at the Bottom of the screen were removed as well which is sad, as Fox Business Network (WSJ) still has the running ticker line at the bottom of their shows and they do display TV Videos on the Entire Screen.

As an alternative to this App for good World Financial Markets and Wall Street coverage without too much biases we also mainly use CNBC, Yahoo Finance or REUTERS Apps on Amazon.
