\n Welcome to\u00a0TNW Basics, a collection of tips, guides, and advice on how to easily get the most out of your gadgets, app<\/a>s, and other stuff.<\/span><\/i><\/p>\n

Disney+ today rolled out a feature called GroupWatch, designed to let users watch their shows and movies<\/a> together without having to use third-party software. So if you\u2019ve been dying to have that Disney watch party with your friends, but want to keep a responsible social<\/a> distance, now you can finally do that.<\/p>\n

GroupWatch allows up to seven users to watch at once, provided they all have Disney+ subscriptions. Users can control pausing, rewinding, or fast-forwarding for the rest of the party \u2014 it reminds me a bit of the defunct Rabbit platform, actually. Users can react to what they\u2019re watching with six different emoji: laughing crying, heart faces, etc.\u00a0 It makes a lot of sense for the company to roll this feature out before its biggest new shows hit the platform \u2014 namely, the likes of\u00a0The Mandalorian\u00a0<\/em>or\u00a0WandaVision<\/em>. It\u2019s no coincidence this feature comes out after trailers for these shows, so that it can advertise it by saying \u201cWatch Mando and The Child with your friends.\u201d<\/p>\n

Read:\u00a0How to enjoy movies, game<\/a>s and more with friends online while social distancing<\/em><\/p>\n

So you if you want to try GroupWatch and do a complete\u00a0Marvel\u00a0<\/em>marathon (which is how I plan to use the feature, anyway) with your social circle, here\u2019s how you can do that.<\/p>\n

To start a GroupWatch event, just pick the film of your choice and, if you\u2019re in an area that supports GroupWatch (only the US, at the time of writing, but with plans to expand to other countries shortly), you\u2019ll find a little button on its description page that looks like a group of people gathered together. Click on that.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/figure>\n

Once you\u2019ve done that, you\u2019ll see a GroupWatch page that shows what you\u2019re watching and allows you to invite others to watch the stream with you. To do that, you\u2019ll have to send them an invite link, which Disney+ provides.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/figure>\n

Within the GroupWatch event, the player proceeds as usual, except with a small emoji button on the bottom right that lets you access the reactions. Once you\u2019re done, just go back on your browser and click \u201cLeave Group Watch.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/figure>\n

And that\u2019s it! Now I\u2019m off to put my friends through every Disney Princess movie under the guise of a Star Wars marathon (Leia is a Disney Princess now, anyway). Good luck!<\/p>\n<\/p><\/div>\n
