YouTube is rolling out a standalone app for its new TV service, but people hoping to stream content on Amazon’s Fire TV device are out of luck.
After debuting YouTube TV in April, YouTube announced today that its $35-per-month streaming service will also be available on a new YouTube TV app for Android TV devices, Xbox One devices, smart TVs, and Apple TV. It was previously available on mobile, desktop, and Chromecast.
One popular device that won’t have the app is Amazon’s Fire TV.
As Recode reported Monday, this is seems to be the latest in an ongoing spat between Amazon and Google, which have a “funny relationship with each other,” as Android Authority noted.
Last month, Google dropped support for YouTube on the Echo Show, Amazon’s first Echo device that features a touchscreen and debuted this summer. Google said that Amazon’s “implementation of YouTube on the Echo Show violates our terms of service, creating a broken user experience.” YouTube is still unavailable on the Echo Show.
Amazon, meanwhile, does not sell Google’s Chromecast device on its retail website. Amazon Prime Video also does not include support for Chromecast.
Asked about a YouTube TV app for Fire TV, a YouTube spokesperson told GeekWire that “we’re starting with the devices mentioned, and we’ll continue working to expand the list of partners.”
We’ve reached out to Amazon for comment and will update this story when we hear back.
Amazon has dealt with similar disagreements with Apple — it stopped selling the Apple TV on its website in 2015, for example — though Apple did announce in June that the Amazon Prime Video app would be available on Apple TV.
