You can use GroupWatch on a desktop or Mac, or through the Disney Plus app on iOS and Android devices. Only seven people can watch simultaneously, and kid accounts can't use GroupWatch, according to Disney. For movies that launch under Premier Access like Black Widow and Jungle Cruise, everyone in the party needs to unlock the video on their own or you can wait for the standard release of those movies. The feature only works for Disney Plus content, and everyone in the watch party needs to be a Disney Plus subscriber. Sarah Tew/CNETĭisney Plus has a built-in watch party feature called GroupWatch.

The former will remain available for the time being, as SharePlay isn't available on all platforms. You can start using this feature now if you've updated your iPhone, iPad, or Apple TV to OS version 15.1 or later.GroupWatch is Disney Plus's own virtual watch party feature. SharePlay on the other hand stretches the participation limit and allows users to see and hear each other while watching. GroupWatch is great for friends who aren't all using Apple devices, due to its cross-platform support. “With thousands of movies and shows and a growing content catalog of new titles and originals, SharePlay provides another opportunity for personal friends and family around the world to come together and create new memories with their favorite stories on Disney+.” “We’re very excited to launch SharePlay on Disney+ for Apple users in time for the holidays and ahead of several highly-anticipated premieres,” said Jerrell Jimerson, EVP of Product & Design, Disney Streaming. It's worth mentioning that every individual will get to choose the audio and subtitle languages of their choice. And, unsurprisingly, each of the participants needs to have their own account. SharePlay expands GroupWatch's 7-people limit to a 32 one. Those using the updated Disney Plus app on a compatible operating system will be able to take advantage of the feature.
