Since the debut of Disney’s digital streaming platform, Disney+, it has become one of the most popular streaming websites in the market. The company has been putting a lot of its resources behind the platform by adding new features for the viewers. Now, the company finally added a new watch-party feature to let users watch movies or TV shows together on Disney+.
The GroupWatch feature was first spotted in the source code of the streaming service earlier last month. Although it was dubbed as “Watch Party” in the code, the actual name of this feature is “GroupWatch”, at least that is what Disney is calling it.
According to Disney, users can access this feature from the “Details” page of a movie or a TV show. After the feature rolls out on October 6, there will be a new “GroupWatch” button somewhere in the “Details” page of their content.
Users can then send invites to their friends or family members from their mobile app or the web platform. Following the acceptance of the invites, a room will be created with all the group members. Then anyone can start the stream to enjoy the content together.
