A service allowing access to purchased digital movies across multiple platforms, syncing purchases from participating studios and retailers for versatile playback on various devices.
Movies Anywhere is a digital movie locker platform launched in 2017 through a collaboration between five major Hollywood studios - Walt Disney Studios, Sony Pictures, Twentieth Century Fox, Universal Pictures, and Warner Bros. It allows users to consolidate their purchased digital movies from participating studios and retailers into one unified collection that can be accessed from a variety of supported devices and platforms.
The service syncs users' movie libraries across platforms so they can start watching a movie on one device, stop, and pick up where they left off on another device. Movies Anywhere currently supports iOS, Android, Amazon Fire TV, Roku, Xfinity, DirecTV, Fios TV, and a wide range of web browsers. Users can also stream their synced movies via apps like Amazon Prime Video, Google Play Movies & TV, Apple TV, and Vudu.
A key benefit of Movies Anywhere is portability and consolidation. Instead of users having movies siloed in accounts across multiple studios, retailers, and platforms, Movies Anywhere centralizes them so they are accessible no matter where you go. This makes it easy for users to take their digital movie library with them anywhere. The service also allows users to redeem digital copy codes from eligible Blu-ray and DVD purchases to further expand their collection.
An additional feature in Movies Anywhere is Screen Pass - a sharing functionality that allows users to loan movies they have purchased to friends and family as a way to expand access and enjoyment of their digital movie libraries. There are also special offers and perks for connecting other digital movie retailer accounts to Movies Anywhere.
