Synchronize video playback on YouTube, Netflix, Emby, Jellyfin, and any HTML5 site in real-time with friends.
KoalaSync: The Privacy-First Watch Party Extension
Synchronize movies, series, and videos in real-time with friends. 100% free, secure, and no account required.
Whether you're binge-watching Netflix, streaming from your own self-hosted Emby, Jellyfin, or Plex servers, or watching on virtually any other website with a video player — KoalaSync keeps everyone perfectly in sync. Lightweight, open-source, and built for absolute data sovereignty.
✨ CORE FEATURES • No Account Needed: Just create a room and share the link. No emails, no passwords, no hassle. A random nickname is assigned automatically, or pick your own. • Universal HTML5 Sync: Flawlessly synchronizes play, pause, and seeking on Netflix, Jellyfin, Emby, YouTube, and almost any website hosting a standard HTML5
🛡️ UNCOMPROMISING PRIVACY No data collection. No compromises. • 100% Anonymous: Zero tracking, zero analytics, zero telemetry. • Ready Out-Of-The-Box: No technical knowledge needed. Install and start watching immediately using the official public server. • RAM-Only Public Server: The official relay server operates entirely in volatile RAM. No databases, no logs, no watch history — nothing persists. • Self-Hostable: Take total control by deploying a private relay server in seconds via Docker. Optional, never required.

- Install KoalaSync and click "Create Room" to spin up a secure lobby.
- Copy the invite link and send it to your friends.
- Open your favorite streaming site and set the video tab as the active target.
- Press play — everyone stays perfectly in sync.
