![]() ![]() Many people crave and seek this as a characteristic when choosing the next big thing in telecommunications services, especially when it’s a no-cost solution. ![]() M圜ircleTV brings to the forefront the key feature of free voice chat while watching videos online with friends. This one is big in that it incorporates VoIP capabilities. You do have the option to make your “room” public, if you so choose, although most do not choose this option with Sync Video. You may invite your friends to your “room” at any given time by clicking “invite” on the upper-right side of the page. This negates the issue of the omnipresent Internet “trolls” that could potentially venture into your virtual space, intruding on the privacy of you and your friends. You may also create new rooms or create a new nickname at any time. Vimeo and YouTube videos may be added and saved to playlists and watched by you and your friends in your virtual “room” at any time. The upside of this is that once registered, you are gifted with your own private, permanent virtual “room.” You may return to this room each time you want to use the service and invite friends to watch videos online with you. Furthermore, Netflix Party allows users to engage with each other with a simple text chat interface. Those folks will be directed to your “room” where they can watch your video in sync with you. This will generate a unique link that you can send to other people. Once it loads, pause your video and click on the red “NP” button in the top right of your browser window. Once you install the extension, navigate to Netflix and choose a film or TV show to watch. ![]() Since it only needs to be installed on one computer, it’s probably one of the easiest to set up. It allows users to synchronize Netflix video playback on multiple computers. ![]() TeleParty (formerly known as Netflix Party) is a browser extension exclusive to Chrome. From here, you can either create your own party, or join existing live stream. You can download its Desktop client for Windows or macOS, or simply use the web version (only supported in Chrome browser) to start a session. Getting up and running with Kast is a breeze. While this might be perfect for a long distance date night, if you intend on inviting more than one person, you’ll want to look at some of the other services on this list. Unfortunately, Gaze can only be used with two parties simultaneously. Both parties can then immediately start streaming videos in sync. One user creates a room and sends the link for the room to another person. If your streaming platform of choice is YouTube, then Gaze might be just what you’re looking for. The nice part about Watch2gether is that you have the choice to select or search video sources from YouTube, Vimeo, DailyMotion, or audio from SoundCloud. You have the option to either invite your own friends to a room that you created or join a room that is already in operation and become a part of the viewing party and conversation. Type in your temporary nickname, and it will bring you to a video (and chat) room where you can start adding friends to chat. To get started, simply click the “Create a Room” button on its home page. You need to have the movies you want to watch stored locally on your hard drive, but once you set up, it’s just a case of you and your friend saying you’re “Ready to Watch” and hitting the Play button. Multi-platform and compatible with all the biggest video player apps out there (including VLC, KM Player and Media Player Classic), Syncplay is a free tool that allows you to sync video streams with friends. There’s even a twoseven Chrome extension that instantly lets you know if a video on a given website is supported in the app and lets you share it with your friend with a couple of clicks. The browser-based app has built-in text and video capabilities, so you don’t have to rely on an external video chat app to see your friend and share your video-viewing experience with them face-to-face. Twoseven supports YouTube, Netflix, Vimeo and Crunchyroll so far, but crucially it also lets you watch private videos either person has on their PC (only one of you has to own the video). ![]()
