As one of the first surviving ecommerce stores, it’s not surprising that Amazon not only sells retail products, but also sells online applications for your phone. It’s also unsurprising that Amazon has made it convenient for shoppers to pay for subscriptions through their app store, simplifying the multiple digital subscriptions people can buy into one place. While we’ve already listed some of the best streaming services that viewers can pay for through the Google Play Store, Amazon Appstore is an excellent alternative for Android users, especially for users already making purchases on Amazon itself and using Amazon Fire OS on other devices.

If you purchase Cricket Wireless' unlimited phone plan, you get a free account with Max bundled in. Through Max's ad-supported plan, you can watch countless HBO shows, Warner Brothers movies, and Discovery documentaries on your phone, and you can also create up to 5 profiles and simultaneously stream on 3 different devices (including a smart TV). This bundle is only available on Cricket's most expensive unlimited phone plan, which costs $60, but along with Max, it also comes with 15 GB mobile hotspot, 150 GB cloud storage, unlimited texts to select countries, and coverage extending to Mexico and Canada. It's a fair price and one of the few phone-streaming bundles available now that AT&T has discontinued its Max bundles.

Bally Sports+ is a streaming service that lets you access live and on-demand content from your local NHL and NBA teams. The platform also covers some MLB markets, including Detroit, Florida, Kansas City, Wisconsin, and Tampa Bay, but it's working to expand that lineup to include the rest of the league's teams. A monthly subscription costs $20/month ($190 yearly), but if you live in an area that has multiple Bally Sports regional networks, you can choose to bundle those at a discounted rate.
