Navigate to your streaming service and start a video. Playback syncs across everyone in the room.
SyncUp makes watching Apple TV+ together straightforward and free. Here's how it works:
Play, pause, and seek actions sync within 200ms via WebSocket. Occasional drift can happen on longer sessions, but a quick resync fixes it.
Invite as many people as you want. We've tested rooms with 50+ viewers without issues.
SyncUp syncs playback timing only - video streams directly from the source at whatever quality you choose.
Install the extension once (takes about a minute), then create watch parties with a couple clicks.
Install the free SyncUp browser extension, create a watch party room, and share the room code. Everyone with the extension installed stays in sync within about 200ms while watching Apple TV+ in their browser. Each viewer needs their own Apple TV+ subscription.
Yes. SyncUp and the browser extension are free. Free rooms hold up to 5 people, and the optional Plus plan ($3.99/month) lifts the cap to 50 for everyone in the room. You'll still need your own Apple TV+ subscription for the content.
SyncUp and SharePlay solve similar problems differently. SharePlay requires Apple devices and FaceTime; SyncUp works in any modern desktop browser (Chrome, Firefox, Edge) on any operating system, so mixed-platform groups can watch together without anyone needing an Apple device.
Yes. Apple TV+ uses DRM-protected playback, so the SyncUp extension is required to sync video state. The extension is free and installs in under a minute on Chrome, Firefox, or Edge.
Apple TV+ watch parties require a desktop browser because mobile browsers don't support extensions. SyncUp works on mobile for YouTube, Twitch, and Kick without an extension.
The extension targets Apple TV+ streaming on tv.apple.com. Rentals and purchases tied to the Apple TV app on macOS or iOS aren't covered, since SyncUp can't reach playback state outside the browser.
Install the free extension and you can start a Apple TV+ watch party in a few minutes.
