Disney Plus Group Watch: Step by Step with Pictures
First things first…
What is Disney Plus Group Watch? Disney+ GroupWatch allows you to watch movies and TV shows with your friends and family at the same time, without having to be in the same place. In a word: it’s magic.
Ok, now that you know what it is, let’s break down exactly how to do Disney Plus Group Watch with family and friends all over the world.
Step 1: Send an invite to a GroupWatch party.
You can find this icon located on the Details page for a movie or television series on Disney+.
Important Note: The invite can only be sent from the internet.
But you can view GroupWatch family and friends sessions from any smart TV screen or device that’s connected to Disney+.
Step 2: Your friends and family receive your Disney Plus GroupWatch invitation link.
At the moment, you can share your GroupWatch party experience with up to 6 (six) people at a time.
If you ask me, that’s just about the perfect size for a great at-home movie night!
Once everyone is ready, click on START STREAM, and you’re ready to go.
Step 3: Enjoy the show on Disney Plus GroupWatch!
While you’re watching your favorite Disney classic or a new release, you and every other person in your party has the ability to control the action:
- pause
- fast-forward
- rewind
All of these actions will take place for the whole group and it lets everyone know who pressed pause or rewind, so use your power wisely! 😉
