Couchwave: Watch Together

Watch videos in sync with friends, with voice and live chat, HD screen sharing and scheduled watch parties.

Same couch. Different cities. Couchwave turns any night into a movie night with the people you miss. Press play together, talk over voice, react in fullscreen, or share your screen in crisp HD, all from a small Chrome extension. No account, no ads. ▶ PRESS PLAY TOGETHER • Play, pause and seek land for everyone within a tenth of a second • Small drift is smoothed with an inaudible speed nudge, never a jarring jump • Handles ads and buffering, and follows the host to the next episode • Works with the video players on most popular video and streaming sites 🖥 SHARE YOUR SCREEN, WITH SOUND • Share a tab, an app window or your whole screen • Up to 1440p at 60 fps, with full stereo sound from a tab • Friends watch in a dedicated player, fullscreen included • Quality adapts to each viewer's connection 🎙 VOICE & CHAT • Voice chat with speaking indicators. The movie dips while someone talks • Live chat and emoji reactions that float over the video, even in fullscreen 🗓 PLAN THE NIGHT • Schedule a party with a time and a note, share one link • Guests add it to their calendar and get a reminder 10 minutes before • Private by default; list it publicly so anyone can find and join 👑 THE HOST HOLDS THE REMOTE • Keep control, hand it to everyone, or choose who can press play • Remove disruptive guests in one click HOW IT WORKS 1. Open a video and click Couchwave → Roll film 2. Paste the invite to your friends 3. They click the link and land in sync GOOD TO KNOW Subscription streaming services protect their videos, so screen sharing usually shows a black picture there. For those, every guest plays the video on their own account and Couchwave keeps everyone perfectly in sync, at full quality. PRIVACY No account, no analytics, no ads. Chat lives in memory only while your party runs. Voice and screen sharing go directly between participants, encrypted. Party details are deleted 30 days after the party.
