Watchly Our pick
Native mobile + Chrome sync with voice built in
Watchly is the only option here with real native iPhone and Android apps plus a Chrome extension, so everyone joins from whatever device they actually have. Dailymotion co-watching lives in the Watchly Pro tier, alongside services like Twitch, Vimeo, and Disney+.
Start a room, drop in a Dailymotion link, and share the room link. Friends can join in the browser with no account. Playback stays frame-accurate for the whole group while push-to-talk voice, reactions, and chat keep the room lively.
