How to Use Watch Now on Instagram and Messenger
To start watching the show with your friends start a video call on Messenger or Instagram, or create a new Messenger Room.
Within your Instagram video call, just tap the media button in the bottom right and go to the ‘TV & Movies’ tab. Within a Messenger video call, swipe up to see the menu and select Watch Together. Then go to the ‘TV & Movies’ tab from there. You will then be able to choose different content to watch with friends.
Watch Together lets people tune into IGTV, Reels, TV shows, movies, and trending videos, and interact in real-time over video chats with others. The feature is now available on Messenger for anyone who updates to the new Messenger experience on Instagram that was announced recently.
