KoalaSync: The Privacy-First Watch Party Extension

Private watch parties for Emby, Jellyfin, Plex, Netflix, YouTube & more. No account needed. Real-time sync. Supports 13 languages. 100% free.

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 with a clean, minimalist UI.

✨ 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 <video> tag.
• Smart Binge-Watching (Auto-Sync): When a new episode loads, KoalaSync automatically pauses playback in a smart lobby until everyone's video is ready. No spoilers, no one left behind.
• Fully Localized: Enjoy a native experience with a user interface fully translated into 13 different languages.
• One-Click Invitations: Generate a smart invite link. Once clicked, the extension instantly configures room credentials and server settings for your guests.
• Zero-Latency Protocol: Powered by a custom WebSocket architecture designed for real-time coordination without buffering loops.

🛡️ UNCOMPROMISING PRIVACY & SECURITY
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. It also features built-in rate-limiting and brute-force protection to prevent room-id spamming.
• Self-Hostable: Take total control by deploying a private relay server in seconds via Docker. Optional, never required.

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