Wish you could bring your friends over to watch a big football game despite the pandemic? Sling TV thinks you still can — it’s launching a Watch Party beta feature that lets you hold video and text chats with up to three other people while you tune in to the same live or on-demand show. This is a “first” in the live TV space, Sling claimed.
While the host has control over playback, every viewer has control over their cameras and volume levels. You can pick from content across Sling’s TV various packages and extras, and you can start a party up to an hour in advance for live broadcasts.
