Disney Plus has buddied up to the “watch party” trend: The Mouse House streamer is launching GroupWatch in the U.S. The new feature lets Disney Plus subscribers invite up to six friends and family members to synchronously stream a TV show or movie together, from wherever they happen to be.
Unlike other “watch party” implementations, Disney Plus’ GroupWatch doesn’t include a text chat feature, an omission designed to not distract viewers from the main event, according to Disney. GroupWatch does let participants share real-time reactions with six different emoji: “like,” “funny,” “sad,” “angry,” “scared” and “surprised” through the Disney Plus app.
