The long version

Watching Prime Video together, in detail

Amazon discontinued Watch Party on April 2, 2024

Prime Video used to have a built-in Watch Party, launched back in 2020. Amazon discontinued it on April 2, 2024. Last verified: May 2026. As of now there is no native Prime Video watch-party option, so syncing a show with friends means using a separate tool that lines everyone up.

SyncUp is one way to do that. It mirrors play, pause, and seek across the room within about 200ms over a WebSocket connection. The video itself still streams from Amazon at your own quality, since SyncUp syncs timing only and does not re-stream or compress anything. If you are weighing options, the watch party apps comparison goes through the current alternatives.

A few Prime Video specifics

  • Each viewer needs their own Amazon Prime Video access to the same title, whether it is included with Prime, rented, or bought.
  • Prime Video catalogs differ by region, so a title in one country may not be available in another. Check that everyone can open it before you press play.
  • You will need the free SyncUp extension on Chrome, Firefox, Edge, Opera, or Brave. It is desktop-only, as mobile browsers do not run extensions. Free rooms hold up to 5 people.

How do I watch Prime Video together with friends?

Install the free SyncUp browser extension, create a watch party room, and share the room code with your friends. Everyone with the extension installed stays in sync within about 200ms. Each viewer needs their own Amazon Prime Video subscription.

Is the Prime Video watch party on SyncUp free?

Yes. SyncUp and the browser extension are free. Free rooms hold up to 5 viewers, and the optional Plus plan ($3.99/month) lifts the cap to 50 for everyone in the room. You'll still need a Prime Video subscription for the content itself.

Does Amazon still have a built-in Watch Party?

No. Amazon discontinued its built-in Prime Video Watch Party on April 2, 2024, so there is no longer a native way to sync Prime Video with friends. SyncUp fills that gap with its free browser extension, and the same room can also watch Netflix, Disney+, YouTube, Twitch, and more, or play SoundCloud and YouTube Music tracks. Last verified: May 2026.

Do I need the browser extension to host a Prime Video party?

Yes. Prime Video uses DRM-protected playback, so the SyncUp extension is required to sync video events. The extension is free and installs in under a minute on Chrome, Firefox, Edge, Opera, or Brave.

Can I watch Prime Video together on mobile?

Prime Video watch parties require a desktop browser because mobile browsers don't support extensions. SyncUp works on mobile for YouTube, Twitch, Kick, SoundCloud, and YouTube Music without an extension.

Does this work with rented or purchased Prime Video titles?

Yes, as long as each viewer has access to the same title. SyncUp only syncs playback events. Each viewer streams the title from their own Amazon account, whether it's included with Prime, rented, or purchased.
