With many in self-isolation due to the coronavirus outbreak, less people are watching films and TV shows together but an extension is enabling Netflix users to do that without breaking free from quarantine.
Named Netflix Party, the Google Chrome extension allows users of the streaming service to watch their favourite movies and programmes simultaneously and remotely.
Once the extension is installed, users can click the extension button to create a Netflix Party where they can share a link to friends and family who they want to watch Netflix with. People in the party can then respond and share their thoughts in a group chat.
The extension has existed for a few years but is gaining traction now as more and more people are put into self-isolation as a result of coronavirus.
