One of the best things about everyone being forced to stay away from each other and avoid socializing has been streaming services.

Things like Netflix, Disney+ and Amazon Prime have been incredible in keeping some of us sane when there’s not much else we can do.

However, if you’re someone who enjoys getting together with friends to watch a TV show or movie, you’ve probably been feeling a little down lately.

Fortunately, there’s some good news. Netflix Party is an extension you can download to your Chrome browser that lets you watch your favourite Netflix movies and shows virtually with your friends.

The app synchronizes video playback and adds group chat to Netflix content so you and your friends can still talk about what’s happening as it happens.

Best of all, it’s pretty easy to use–you can set it up and start using it in just four steps.
