Bring your favorite streaming app into your room
Start a room, open the show on your favorite streaming site, pin it with the free extension and watch together. That's it. It works with Netflix, Prime Video, JioHotstar and Crunchyroll on Chrome and other Chromium browsers on desktop.
When you'll love it
A virtual movie night with friends in three different cities. A date night when you live miles apart. Watching anime with friends the night a new episode drops. Bingeing your favorite show with a sibling, or catching a match with family back home. Whenever the streaming app has the story, the extension brings you all into the same moment.
YouTube and Google Drive play right in LofiCouch on any device, so you only need the extension for streaming services on desktop.
Get ready together
-
Install it
Add the free LofiCouch extension from the Chrome Web Store.
-

Guests join the pinned video, check their sound and the host leads the way.
What everyone needs
Each person watches on their own streaming account, so pick a title everyone can open where they are. Sharing one subscription works too, as long as your plan allows it. Hosting and the extension are free; YouTube and Google Drive need no streaming subscription at all.
New: Prime Video watch parties
Prime Video now joins Netflix, JioHotstar and Crunchyroll. Pin a film or an episode from Prime Video to your room and watch it together in exact frame-by-frame sync, with voice chat built in.
What stays in the room
Your voice and text chat live in your LofiCouch room, right beside the show. A room fits up to four people, including the host.
Permissions and privacy
Chrome shows the extension's permissions before you install, and our privacy policy explains the rest. Install from the official store listing and keep it updated. If anything looks unexpected, write to hello@loficouch.com.
Extension questions
Does everyone need to install it?
Yes, for Netflix, Prime Video, JioHotstar and Crunchyroll watch parties, each person adds it on desktop. YouTube and Google Drive play in LofiCouch without it.
Can we share one streaming subscription?
Yes, if your plan allows it. LofiCouch follows your streaming service's own rules, so if everyone can play the title, you're set.
Can I use it on my phone?
Streaming-service watch parties are best on desktop today. On your phone, YouTube and Google Drive work right now in LofiCouch.
Which browsers does it work in?
Chrome and other Chromium-based browsers on desktop. Install it from our official Chrome Web Store listing.
