Frequently Asked Questions
Quick answers to the most common WatchBuddy questions.
Does WatchBuddy host media content?
No. WatchBuddy does not host, store, or distribute media files. It only synchronizes playback for user-provided links.
Do I need an account for WatchBuddy social features?
No account is required to join a room. Signing in is optional and unlocks synced favorites, watch history, friends, room invites, and discoverability controls.
What profile data can other users see?
You can use guest rooms without a public profile. If you opt into social discovery or friend-based features, your nickname, avatar, status, favorites, watch history, and room activity may be visible according to that feature's privacy rules. You can turn discoverability off and manage blocked users.
