FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS

Questions about listening together

The essentials about Connectify rooms, playback, privacy, and supported videos.

Start for free

Do I need an account?

No. Connectify creates a private browser identity so you can join and contribute immediately.

Which links work?

Connectify currently supports standard YouTube, YouTube Music, mobile YouTube, Shorts, embed, and youtu.be video URLs. A video must still allow embedded playback in the viewer’s country.

Is Connectify free?

Yes. Creating and joining rooms is free.

Why can a room take longer to open sometimes?

The free backend may pause after inactivity. Opening Connectify immediately starts waking it, and the room continues automatically when it is ready.

Does background audio always work?

Desktop browsers generally keep an existing player active. Mobile operating systems may suspend browser tabs or block a newly loaded embedded video until the page is foregrounded.
