Host free Peacock watch parties for The Office, Poker Face, Premier League, and everything on Peacock. The SyncUp browser extension keeps everyone in sync within about 200ms.
Free for Chrome, Firefox, and Edge
SyncUp natively supports YouTube, Twitch, Kick, and thousands of HTML5 video sites - no extension needed. For streaming services like Peacock, our free browser extension enables synchronized playback. Each person needs their own Peacock subscription.
Peacock does not ship a native group-viewing feature, so there is no official button inside the app for watching a title together (Last verified: May 2026). Like most streaming services that never shipped a watch party or quietly retired theirs, the usual route is a third-party sync tool that sits on top of the player. SyncUp fills that gap: a free extension reads playback state from Peacock and keeps every viewer on the same frame within about 200ms.
A few things are worth planning for before you press play:
Install the free SyncUp extension on Chrome, Firefox, or Edge, then start or join a room from the watch together page. Each person opens Peacock in the same browser, and play, pause, and seek actions relay to the rest of the room over WebSocket. Video still streams straight from Peacock at whatever quality each connection supports.
Get the free SyncUp extension for Chrome, Firefox, or Edge. Usually takes under a minute.
Visit SyncUp and create a free watch party room. Share the room code with your friends.
Navigate to your streaming service and start a video. Playback syncs across everyone in the room.
SyncUp makes watching Peacock 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. Each viewer needs their own Peacock account (free or Premium).
Yes. SyncUp and the browser extension are free. Free rooms hold up to 5 people; the optional Plus plan ($3.99/month) lifts the cap to 50 for everyone in the room. Peacock's free tier covers some titles, but premium content requires a Peacock subscription.
Yes. SyncUp syncs whatever video Peacock plays for each viewer. If you're all on the free tier, you can only sync titles that are available on the free tier for each account. For full library access, every viewer needs Peacock Premium.
Yes. Peacock 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, or Edge.
Peacock 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.
Live Peacock streams (including Premier League soccer and Sunday Night Football) are DRM-protected and work with the extension. Live broadcasts already play in real time, so sync mostly matters when someone pauses for a snack run.
Install the free extension and you can start a Peacock watch party in a few minutes.
