What is Disney plus watch party?

  Disney Plus' Watch Party feature, also known as GroupWatch, is among its best features. It's a fantastic opportunity to gather with friends to watch all your favorite shows using the streaming service. Continue reading to learn everything there is to know about Disney Plus Watch Party.

Disney Plus Watch Party

Disney Plus Watch Party (also known as GroupWatch), which was introduced in 2020 during the COVID-19 pandemic, enables you to watch a television or a movie with up to six other friends while doing so remotely. The aim is to eliminate the requirement that you all watch a show in the same room. 

To ensure that everyone is watching simultaneously, the feature synchronizes Disney Plus playback with the other group members. Each user has the ability to pause, rewind, or fast-forward the video for the entire party while doing this, ensuring that nobody is ever left behind. The GroupWatch has no "leader" at this time. Everyone has the same level of control over their watching experience.

Any Disney Plus app can use Disney Plus GroupWatch. Consequently, you can participate in a GroupWatch whether you are watching on the Disney Plus website, iOS or Android applications, your smart TV, or other devices. 

It's ideal for big families or huge groups of friends who wish to watch TV together despite being temporarily (or permanently) dispersed around the globe. When watching a major movie release or the launch of a television series, Disney advises that it works especially well. After all, watching movies with friends makes them much better, especially ones like Encanto.

Each participant must be invited to the session in order to use GroupWatch. They must have each have a Disney Plus account in order to sign up. On the same account, up to four separate profiles can stream simultaneously. Just remember that children's profiles cannot sign up. A profile for adults is required. Emojis can be clicked or tapped to express in-the-moment emotions once everyone has signed in together. 

A few examples of emojis are Like, Funny, Sad, Angry, Scared, and Surprised. There isn't a voice chat feature, but customers feel that pairing it with services like FaceTime, Skype, or anything similar gives them a better experience because they can discuss the program or movie they are viewing.

How to use Disney Plus Watch Party

The group Watch Party function on Disney Plus is really simple to set up. That contributes to its allure. Disney Plus GroupWatch can be used by everyone in the group as long as they are all familiar with Disney Plus. Users can easily join forces to view the newest film or television program once it has begun. Use it as follows. Just keep in mind that to participate in a GroupWatch session, every group member must already have a Disney Plus subscription.

The individual initiating GroupWatch should visit the Disney Plus website or Disney Plus app once everyone has signed up for Disney Plus. Disney Plus is now largely compatible with GroupWatch, so continue utilizing the streaming service the way you always have. Find the movie you want to view as a group from there. It's okay if you need to debate beforehand about what you want to watch as a group on a third-party messaging app provider. 

Once you've decided on a movie or TV show, select the icon that resembles a huddle of people. In most cases, it's right next to the + sign for adding anything to your Watch List.

The GroupWatch settings appear after clicking. You can decide which episode of a season to watch together if you're watching a TV show. Select one, then click the "+" sign next to the content. You will then receive a URL that you can share with others as an invitation. If you're using a web browser, click Copy Link. If you're using the Disney Plus app, click Invite.

 You can share the link however you get there, whether through email, SMS, third-party messaging services, or anything else you can think of. To connect with people, you can send the link via a Twitter direct message or similar methods.

Your GroupWatch grows as more people connect through the link. A GroupWatch can contain most of the seven devices. As each invitee joins the stream, their profile photo becomes visible. Click Start Stream to watch the episode or movie once everyone has joined. As if you were regularly watching something on Disney Plus, options for pausing, fast-forwarding, or rewinding are quite obvious.

Additionally, you can "react" using the various emojis so that everyone in the party can see your reaction to a certain scene. The only control distinction is that your actions have an impact on the entire GroupWatch party. If you choose, there is also the option to leave GroupWatch.

If you want to view any additional movies after the first one has finished streaming, you must start a new GroupWatch. However, if they are watching a TV show with several episodes, viewers can always click or touch Play Next Episode to move to the subsequent episode. This system is perfect if you and a group of friends want to stay up binge-watching a great show all night.
