Watch Tubi Together

Tubi is free to stream, and Watchly keeps everyone's movie perfectly in sync — same scene, same second — with push-to-talk voice and live chat built in. Free movie night, no shared screen, no lag.

Get Watchly freeSee all supported services

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

Yes — you can watch Tubi together with friends in other homes using Watchly, and Tubi co-watch sits in the Watchly Pro tier. Watchly syncs play, pause and seek frame-accurately for everyone at once, so the movie hits the same moment on every screen while you talk over built-in voice chat and fire off live reactions.

The good news for the budget: Tubi itself is completely free. It's an ad-supported service, so each viewer just needs their own free Tubi account — there's no paid subscription to share or split. That makes a Tubi watch party one of the cheapest movie nights going. Watchly syncs each person's own Tubi stream rather than rebroadcasting one screen, which keeps quality sharp and the setup legal for personal use.

It runs on the native iOS app, the native Android app, and the Chrome extension — so a friend on a phone and a friend on a laptop can share the exact same movie night. Most watch-party tools are desktop-only browser extensions; phone-to-laptop sync is where Watchly stands apart.

Best ways to watch Tubi together

Watchly leads for true phone-to-laptop sync with voice. Here's how the options compare for a free Tubi movie night.

1

Watchly Our pick

Synced Tubi across phones and laptops, with voice built in

Best for: Free movie nights where friends are spread across devices and citiesiOS · Android · ChromeFree · Pro from $4.99/mo

Watchly is a native watch-party app for iOS and Android plus a Chrome extension, so everyone watches the same Tubi movie in real-time sync no matter what device they're on. Tubi support lives in Watchly Pro, but Tubi's own streaming stays free for every viewer — you only ever need a free Tubi account.

Push-to-talk voice chat, live reactions and text chat are all built in and free, so there's no second app for the call. Friends can join straight from a shared room link in their browser without creating an account.

Pros

  • Real native iOS and Android apps, not just a desktop extension
  • Frame-accurate sync of play, pause and seek for everyone
  • Push-to-talk voice, live reactions and text chat built in
  • Tubi streaming stays free — only a free Tubi account needed
  • Friends join from a link in the browser, no account required

Cons

  • Tubi co-watch needs Watchly Pro ($4.99/mo) after the 3-day trial
  • Each viewer signs into their own Tubi account (no shared screen)

Teleparty

Classic desktop extension for browser streaming

Best for: Laptop-only groups who already live in ChromeChrome · Edge (desktop)Free · Premium tier

Teleparty is the veteran of synced streaming and adds a side chat to supported services. It's a browser extension, so it only runs on a desktop or laptop — there's no native phone app, and Tubi support depends on the extension recognising the site.

Pros

  • Well-known and simple to install on desktop
  • Free core sync with an in-page text chat
  • Works across several big streaming sites

Cons

  • Desktop browser only — no native iOS or Android app
  • No built-in voice chat in the free tier

Hyperbeam

Shared virtual browser you all click inside

Best for: Quick sessions when nobody wants to install anythingWeb · mobile browsersFree with time limits

Hyperbeam spins up a shared cloud browser that the whole group controls together, so you can open Tubi inside it and watch as one. Because it streams a single virtual screen it works in mobile browsers too, though video quality leans on your connection and free sessions are time-limited.

Pros

  • Runs in a browser, including on phones
  • Nothing to install — share a link and go
  • Everyone can control the shared screen

Cons

  • Free sessions are time-capped
  • Streamed virtual browser can look softer than native playback

Kosmi

Free virtual-browser hangout with games

Best for: Casual hangouts that mix a movie with games and video chatWebFree

Kosmi gives you a free virtual room with a shared browser, video chat and party games, so a Tubi night can roll straight into something else. It's all in the browser with no extension, which is handy, though it leans casual rather than precision-synced.

Pros

  • Free with video chat included
  • Shared browser plus built-in games
  • No extension to install

Cons

  • No native mobile app
  • Sync is looser than a dedicated watch-party app

How to watch Tubi together on Watchly

Setup takes a couple of minutes and the people you invite don't even need the app to join.

  1. Install Watchly on iPhone, Android, or add the Chrome extension from the download page.
  2. Start Watchly Pro (3-day free trial) so Tubi co-watch is unlocked.
  3. Create a room and pick Tubi as your service.
  4. Sign into your own free Tubi account inside the room.
  5. Share the room link — friends tap it and join in the browser, no account needed.
  6. Press play once; Watchly keeps everyone synced from there.

What to know

Tubi is free and ad-supported, so every viewer only needs a free Tubi account — there's no paid plan to share. Watchly syncs each person's own stream rather than broadcasting one screen, which keeps playback crisp and stays within personal-use territory. Because ads are part of free Tubi, the odd ad break may land at slightly different times per viewer; a quick pause lets everyone regroup before the next scene.

Voice chat, reactions and text chat are free on Watchly even though Tubi itself sits in Pro, so the whole group can talk through the film without a separate call app. It all works phone-to-laptop, so nobody's left out for being on the wrong device.
