Watch Kick Together in Perfect Sync

Pull up a Kick live stream or VOD and watch it with friends in other homes, frame-for-frame, with push-to-talk voice and live chat built in. Watchly works on iPhone, Android and Chrome.

Updated 2026-06-30 · Watchly works on iOS, Android & Chrome

Yes, you can watch Kick together with Watchly. Kick is a free live-streaming and gaming platform, so there is nothing to buy to watch the stream itself, but Kick is a Watchly Pro service inside the app, so you will need Watchly Pro to start a synced Kick room. Once you are in, Watchly keeps everyone on the same moment of the live stream and adds voice chat and reactions on top. Get Watchly free and upgrade when you want Kick.

Here is how it works in practice: the host opens a Kick stream inside Watchly and shares a room link. Friends tap or click the link and land on the exact same point in the broadcast. Because Kick streams are free to watch, nobody needs a paid account on Kick itself, though everyone does load the stream on their own device through their own Kick session. Watchly never rebroadcasts one person's screen, it syncs each viewer's own playback, which keeps things smooth and within Kick's normal terms of use.

The payoff is that watching a Kick gaming session, IRL stream or esports event stops being a solo thing. You react out loud the moment a clutch happens instead of typing it 30 seconds late, and nobody is stuck a minute behind because their stream buffered.

Best ways to watch Kick together

How the main options compare for syncing a Kick live stream with friends.

SyncUp

Free, no account, with native Kick support

Best for: Quick Kick or Twitch sync in a browser tabWeb browserFree

SyncUp supports Kick natively alongside YouTube and Twitch and lets you start a room with no sign-up, which makes it one of the fastest ways to throw up a shared Kick stream. It runs in the browser rather than as a native mobile app.

Pros

  • Native Kick and Twitch support
  • Free with no account required
  • Very fast to start a room

Cons

  • Browser only, no dedicated mobile apps
  • Voice chat is not built in the way it is in Watchly
3

Hyperbeam

Shared virtual browser that works on mobile browsers

Best for: Watching any site, including Kick, through one shared browserWeb browser (incl. mobile)Free with time limits

Hyperbeam spins up a shared virtual browser everyone controls together, so you can simply navigate to Kick inside it and watch as a group. Because it is just a browser in the cloud, it sidesteps per-service integrations entirely and works on mobile browsers too.

Pros

  • Works with essentially any website, Kick included
  • Runs in mobile browsers, not desktop only
  • Nothing to install

Cons

  • Free tier has session time limits
  • Quality depends on the shared cloud browser
4

Kosmi

Free virtual-browser hangout with video chat and games

Best for: A social room where you also watch a Kick streamWeb browserFree

Kosmi gives you a hangout room with video chat and games, plus a shared virtual browser you can point at Kick. It is more of a social space than a precision sync tool, but it is genuinely free and needs no extension.

Pros

  • Free with video chat and games included
  • No extension to install
  • Good for a casual group hangout

Cons

  • No native mobile apps
  • Sync is less precise than a dedicated player

How to watch Kick together with Watchly

Setup takes a couple of minutes. Here is the short version:

  1. Install Watchly on your phone or add the Chrome extension, then open the app.
  2. Start Watchly Pro (or the 3-day free trial) since Kick is a Pro service.
  3. Create a room and choose Kick, then paste the link to the live stream or VOD you want to watch.
  4. Share the room link with your friends. They join in the browser with no account, or in their own Watchly app.
  5. Hit play. Everyone snaps to the same moment, and you can talk over push-to-talk voice and drop reactions as it happens.

What to know before you start

Kick streams are free to watch, so nobody needs a paid Kick subscription, but each person does load the stream on their own device through their own Kick session, the same way they would normally. Watchly syncs playback, it does not screen-share one person's feed, which is what keeps quality high and keeps you inside Kick's normal usage. For live streams, expect everyone to land within a second or two of the live edge.

Watchly runs on iOS, Android and Chrome, so a mixed group of phones and laptops all works in the same room. Only the host needs Watchly Pro to open the Kick room.
