SyncWatch

Watching online videos is a good entertainment method for a lot of people. Watching along with your friends and sharing laughs makes it even better.

But if you and your friends are far apart, this can get a bit difficult. Finding the same video, having to know when to play it in order to watch it at the same time, these can all ruin the experience.

If you do want to watch online videos with your friend who is miles away from you, then you can try SyncWatch.

This web browser extension will help you and your friends watch your favorite content at the same time.

It supports the popular YouTube, Vimeo, Dailymotion, Facebook and other websites that use HTML5 video players.

When your friends come over to watch something together, you all go into the same room, turn on the device and start watching.

This extension functions on the same principle. You need to come up with a name for yourself and then either create a new room or join an existing one.

Once everyone has joined in, all that it is left is for someone to find the video to watch. When they do, they just need to click on the Share video button, and the link from the web page will be shared with all the other room members.

Once everyone has accessed the video, someone needs to just pause it and rewind from the beginning. This will not only affect their player, but everyone else's as well.

And the beautiful thing about it is that there isn't only one person who can control the entire room. Everyone who joined in can pause, play, rewind or skip through the video, doing the same for all their roommates.

Watching videos online with your friends becomes much easier once you install SyncWatch. You don't need to count to 3 for all of you to press the play button at the same time anymore.

Just find the content you would like to watch, share it with everyone and enjoy your viewing!
