Everyone drops their videos

Each guest has a remote on their phone. No app to install, it's all in the browser.

  • 🔍 YouTube search directly from the remote
  • ⭐ Your YouTube favorites + personal channel accessible
  • 📈 Current trends suggested
  • 🧊 Each proposal costs 1 ice cube (5-8 to open a room)

💡 TV tip: from the mobile remote, you can display the player on any TV via the "TV Connection" button (room creator only).

✨ THE SECRET SAUCE

Why random draw changes everything

Collaborative playlists have existed for 15 years. The problem? The democracy effect: the most consensus tracks win, daring choices never get played.

The random draw solves that. You can drop a niche song, it has the same chances of playing as a hit. Result: a surprising party that helps you discover your friends' tastes instead of listening to the same Spotify playlist again.

And it's live — everyone sees the same video at the same moment, like you're together in the same bar. Sync to the millisecond.

Frequently asked questions

How much does it cost?

Free to start with 20 free ice cubes. You can then buy packs: 50 ice cubes for $4.99, 220 for $9.99, up to 1200 ice cubes for $34.99. No subscription, you pay per order. See packs →

Do my friends need to sign up?

No! Your guests can join in guest mode (just with their first name). They can watch, chat and see the draw live. To propose videos, though, an account is needed (free sign-up in 30 seconds).

What if a song is too long?

You can skip a dragging video (costs ice cubes per the room's policy). The random draw also automatically triggers X minutes before the end of the current video to avoid silences.

Maximum room capacity?

You pick at creation: 5 to 100 simultaneous guests. The more guests, the more ice cubes it costs to open a room (servers work harder 😉).

What devices does it work on?

Everywhere: Chrome, Safari, Firefox, Edge, on desktop, tablet, smartphone. The mobile remote works on iPhone and Android without installing an app. You can also cast to Chromecast / Google TV from mobile.

What about YouTube rights?

100% legal: we use the official YouTube player which handles synchronization across viewers. You enjoy videos as if watching on YouTube.com, with ads and standard YouTube monetization rules.
