Watch party online
A watch party is simply a video everyone watches together at the same moment, with a chat on the side. Here is how to host one on Booick in under a minute.
Host in three steps
- Open Entertainment and create a room.
- Choose a video from YouTube.
- Share the invite link and press play.
Everyone stays in sync
When someone presses play, pause or skips, the room follows, so nobody is a few seconds ahead giving spoilers. Late joiners catch up to the same moment.
Invite who you want
Public rooms let anyone drop in. Friends-only rooms are for your circle, and private rooms need your link.
What works and what doesn't
YouTube links and direct video links (.mp4 or .webm) play together. Netflix, Prime Video and Hotstar block playing inside other websites, so they don't work yet.
