- Open the movie/ TV show landing page to see a new ‘Watch Party’ button on the right.
Note: If you are hosting a Watch Party for a TV show mid-season, then clicking the ‘Watch Party’ button at the top right will play the next episode in line. To watch any specific episode with your friends/ family, scroll down to the ‘Episodes List’ and click the ‘Watch Party’ button for a certain episode you want to watch together.
This right-hand side pane includes the Settings and Chat view. You can see who all joined and left the watch party in the chat view (as seen below). The chat experience is very simple. You can only send text messages and a handful of built-in emoji.
Under the Settings tab in the right-hand side pane, you will see an ‘End Watch Party’ button under the Watch Party details section.
Sadly, the Watch Party feature is only supported on web browsers (except Safari) at the moment. You cannot join via your smartphone, tablet, smart TV, or Fire TV devices.
