A long distance movie night that feels like being together

Distance does not have to cancel movie night. CouchSync Live keeps your video in sync, lets you talk and see each other while it plays, and adds reactions, chat, and small games so the night feels shared.

Ways to watch

Screen sharing: share your screen with the room for things you have the right to show.

Make it feel like a date

Video and voice calls inside the room
Emoji reactions that float across the screen
Chat with timestamps you can jump back to
Movie trivia and quick polls for the in-between moments
Audio ducking that lowers the movie when someone speaks

Tips for a smooth night

Use headphones to avoid echo on the call.
Run the device check in the lobby to test your camera and microphone before you start.
For video files, make sure you both have the same file.
A stable internet connection helps most. If someone's connection stalls, playback pauses for everyone and resumes together.
