So I looked and the appstore for my Amazon FireStick and FireTablet did not have anything for Gizmoplex. When I looked up MST3K it only brought up ShoutFactoryTV.
Has anyone seen the app for Amazon products yet? I’ve got my codes from the kickstarter, but I’d like to download the app on my devices.
It will take you to the Amazon app store but it should show you the MST3K app. I have been using it myself, and lots of other folks have as well, so it definitely exists!
Hey Lesley, will that existing app eventually update to look like the preview we got to see in episode 1’s livestream? I was kind of unclear on that point.
Unfortunately not. The Gizmoplex Virtual Theater will be viewable primarily through a computer, although early tests have shown success when using a phone or tablet browser. But the smart apps will stay much the same as they are now.
As producer Ivan put it, "The apps that we’re able to afford for now are essentially white-labeled from Vimeo OTT, and we get no real control over the UI, navigation, organization, etc… Believe me: we wish we could have custom apps for all platforms, but we’d have to have a LOT more demand – and income – before we’d even be able to break even on the cost of developing and maintaining super-customized apps. ”
