Watch together isn't working for me on Messenger

Computer Help
If Watch together isn’t working for you on Messenger, the reason could be that the content is not accessible to all audiences.
Some content restrictions on Watch together include:
  • Age restrictions: Content that is rated for a specific age range cannot be seen by people we know to be underage. If your age is unknown because you joined a room anonymously, Watch together will only show you content that’s appropriate for young people.
  • Location restrictions: Licensing agreements prevent some content from being streamed on Watch together in specific regions.
  • Original content restrictions: You may be unable to see content created by other people. For example, someone may have deleted it.
If you're still having trouble using Watch together, here are some things you can try:

Update to the latest version of the app

Older versions of Messenger may have bugs that were fixed in later updates, so installing the latest version of the app can help.
You may also want to uninstall and then reinstall the app.
To install or update the Messenger app, you can go to the App Store or Google Play store on your device:

Check your internet connection

Watch together needs a strong and reliable network connection to stream multiple videos at one time.
If your internet connection is slow, try to re-connect to your Wi-Fi network or connect to a different network.

Turn off your camera

Turning your video camera off can help your network stream videos on Watch together, especially if you’re on a weaker network connection.
