It would be amazing if the Watch Together was able to sync Playlists.
For video, this would be great for movie marathons, TV series and music playlists.
For music, if you’re having a house party then there’s no simple way to have the same music playing through all of your home devices unless you listen to the radio.
I did manage to do it once by creating a long playlist and editing it into a video format so the normal Watch Together would work. A little out of sync, but good enough as you walked from one room to another to keep the vibe.
Being able to sync with playlists would make it much easier to listen to music this way. Easier to skip songs or even insert/add to the playlist as you go and have all other devices follow suit.
As noted in our previous announcement, our existing Watch Together functionality will not be included in our new experience apps on launch, which are currently in preview and will be released broadly in the future.
As such, we’re closing related feature suggestions in order to give back those votes, so that you can vote for something else.
We do not preclude the possibility of offering similar functionality again in the future, as we also noted in our announcement. Should that happen, then feature suggestions like this one and others would certainly be considered during that development.
A new suggestion related to adding Watch Together to our new experience apps has already been raised and you’re welcome to comment or vote on that suggestion.
