You've probably wanted to watch a movie or series with your friends who are far away, but do you know how to do it? It's possible on the main streaming platforms, and in this post we explain how to do it on each of them.
How to watch movies with your friends on Netflix?
SOURCE: NETFLIX
Netflix does not have any official method for watching movies with friends, but there are ways to carry out this process on your PC and Smartphone, check out how to proceed below.
Netflix Party – PC
THE Netflix Party is a Google Chrome extension that creates a session for two or more people to watch movies and series on Netflix at the same time.
To use, simply install in browser, open a movie or series on the platform and click on the “NP” icon on the top tab of the page (next to the URL). This will create the session and generate a link to invite other people.
The sessions have a text chat for participants to chat. The tool is free, but requires each person to be a Netflix subscriber.
Rave – Smartphone
Rave is another way to watch movies and series with friends on your cell phone. The app allows content from YouTube, Vimeo, Google Drive, Netflix and Prime Video to be viewed in groups on your smartphone or tablet. This “party” is available for both Android as for iOS (iPhone and iPad) and also for virtual reality glasses.
