There’s still some more days to go before the government lifts the lockdown on May 3. During the lockdown period, people have grown new habits such as daily exercise, streaming movies online all through the day, and much more. But how can you enjoy watching movies without having your friends with you, right? As per the government orders, you should not go out to meet anyone as it can risk you in contracting COVID-19 infection. If you’re missing the late night movie sessions with friends we have some solutions for you. The following are three ways to watch movies and shows together with your friends without meeting them in person. Note: To use the platforms everyone will need to have their own subscription plan and all friends can’t use one single account. How to use Netflix Party to watch movies with friends If you and your friends have a Netflix account, you can use the Netflix Party Chrome extension to sync all of your streams. It also adds a live chatbox that allows you to discuss an interesting part you saw in the movie. To sync up your Netflix free movie or show, you can download and install the Netflix Party extension from the Chrome webstore. You will then need to open up Netflix and click on the extension icon, inside of the Chrome toolbar. This will open a window that has an option to ‘Create a Netflix Party’. After clicking on that, the extension will ask you if you want total control over the playback or leave it open to everyone. Select the preferred option and click on ‘Start the party’. This will generate a link that you can share with your friends or family who want to join the movie screening.
