Watch Box

Overview

What it does.

Watch more than one video at a time, the easy way. Watch Box puts every video in its own clean, resizable window. Follow a game, a live stream and a show side by side, each with its own sound and its own controls.

Two ways to use it

  • Watch Box for Mac: a free app made for watching. Open your streaming services in their own windows, switch any window to just the picture, keep it on top, and tile them across your screen. Protected streams play too.
  • Watch Box for Chrome and Edge: a free browser extension. Click the Watch Box icon on any video and it pops into its own window with full controls.

Download for Mac

Free. Signed and checked by Apple, so it opens with no warnings. Pick the download for your Mac:
