Keeps you connected
Gaze: Long Distance Movie Night or simply known as Gaze alone is a free video-sharing tool developed by letsgaze.com for the web platform. This entertainment and multimedia app allows you to watch any of your favorite movies or videos together virtually with your loved ones who are miles away from you at the same time. You can also sync-watch videos from any social media apps such as YouTube, Facebook, etc. Not only that but you can also do video calls or send instant chat messages while watching, which helps you feel closer to your friends and family.
Easy-to-use but dysfunctional
Gaze can be learned and handled with ease even by beginner users of this web-app. It only requires you to simply go to their website and click the "Start Gazing" button. You will then be redirected to a webpage that contains the invitation link, which you can send to your family or friends. You can also opt to invite them through Facebook and e-mail. Once they have joined, you can either paste the URL of the video you want to watch or import the file from your computer.
However, before that, your friends or relatives should copy and paste the invitation link in the URL tab and click Enter. You will then be asked to allow the use of your microphone and camera. However, the website will lead you to a prompt that says that you didn’t allow the use of those devices. Thus, this video-sharing app is not functional at all.
Moreover, the same issue also occurs when you try their instant demo. If you are planning to check this one out, it is more recommended for you to try other related apps that contain greater features and better performance such as Kast. The developer needs to work on and refurbish a lot of things with Gaze first because if not, you would just waste your time, effort, and patience here.
