Hi everyone! I'm excited to share WatchAlong.me.
I built WatchAlong.me to make watching videos together as simple as sharing a link. There are no sign-ups, no downloads, and it's completely free.
You can watch YouTube, Vimeo, HLS streams, and direct video URLs in perfect sync with built-in video chat, live chat, collaborative drawing, sticker reactions, and customizable chat themes. The goal was to create a more social experience than just synchronized playback.
The browser extension for subscription streaming services is currently under development, but the core web experience is fully available today.
I'd love to hear your feedback—what features you'd like to see next, what could be improved, or how you're using WatchAlong.me. Thanks for checking it out!
Finally tried this with a couple friends last night and the sync held up perfectly even on bad wifi. The link-to-join setup meant zero friction, which honestly is the only way I'd ever get my group to commit to a virtual movie night.
Synced up a quick watch party with a friend and the playback stayed perfectly in time, chat was snappy too. Wish the room creation was a bit more obvious for first-timers, but overall really clean experience.
