Now, without making it too comprehensive, let’s learn about enabling the TwoSeven extension. Hence, to do so, all you need to do is follow the information below and imply it the way it is provided. So, without any further delay, let’s begin and see whether the process is similar to the Netflix Watch Party or not.  

Step 1: Install the TwoSeven Extension

1. Chrome 

If you are pursuing using the Chrome web browser, visit the Chrome Web Store first. And then, search for the TwoSeven extension rather than the Netflix Party Chrome extension. Further, click "Add to Chrome" and then the "Add Extension" option in the dialog box that appears. After a successful installation, a new tab will open with the TwoSeven changelog.

2. Firefox 

Suppose you think of accessing a Firefox extension while in the process. Begin by visiting the Firefox add-ons collection and search for the TwoSeven extension. Try to ignore the Netflix Party Extension, as it's only for hosting Netflix Watch Party. Further, simultaneously clicking on the "Add to Firefox" and "Add" options appears in the dialog box. Remember, it will open a new tab with the TwoSeven changelog after completing the installation. 

Remember: 

During installation, the extension will request permission to scan all websites you visit to find videos for viewing rooms. Notably, the TwoSeven extension needs to collect login information for streaming services.

1. Chrome: By default, Chrome does not grant the extension access to Private Windows. Moreover, do you use your Incognito Mode browser for sensitive websites (such as banking or government services)? Then, there is no such compulsion to follow the next step; you can skip it anyway. 

2. Firefox: After installing the TwoSeven extension, you have the option to grant it access to Private Windows. But if you don't use Private Windows or Incognito Mode, you can skip this step. And remember, here, neither we are talking about Netflix Watch Party nor Netflix Party Chrome Extension.   

Step 2: Create an Account at TwoSeven

In order to host & join a watch party, you must have a TwoSeven account. Moreover, to know the rest of the process, follow the downward points:  

1. First, visit the “twoseven.xyz” website or click the TwoSeven extension's icon. You can easily find it in your browser and then choose the "Login to twoseven.xyz" option. 

2. Next, it will ask you to create an account along with the need to verify your email address. It is advised not to link these steps with installing the Netflix Party Extension and creating Netflix Watch Party.    

Step 3: Host & Join a Viewing Room 

To Host a Room:

1. Begin by visiting the website which you want to sync a stream from. In case, login is required then ensure that all members present at the watch party must have logged in. 

2. Now carry onwards by loading the page for the video you are planning to watch.

3. Afterward, click the TwoSeven extension's icon displaying in your web browser.

4. Consequently, it will show you a dropdown menu having a list of the movie or TV episodes. 

5. Remember, the  video's length based correct option is relevant to select. Only then, the extension will be able to open a new tab along with the selection queued up in a TwoSeven-hosted room.

6. Further, customize settings and preferences at the top of the window, such as night mode and theater mode.

7. And don’t forget to use the "Add People" icon to invite friends or copy the room link to share.

To Join a Room:

1. Similar to Netflix Watch Party, open a new browser tab or window. It should be with the provided room link from the host or via a TwoSeven-generated email invite.

2. Customize settings like night mode and theater mode using the icons available.

Step 4: Watch the Video and Interact

1. Watching a video and interacting with friends is like a Netflix Watch Party. Firstly, press the “Play” button to begin watching the video. Moreover, depending on the room's settings, participants can control playback. Or the host can preserve control solely. 

2. If the video is out of sync, click the exclamation mark encircled by arrows in the top right corner of the video to resync.

3. For a more immersive experience, enable audio and video chat within the TwoSeven window by clicking the camera and microphone icons. Permit the extension permission to access your PC's microphone & camera.

4. If audio and video chat is impossible, use the text chat window and emoji reactions to share thoughts and feelings.

Key Points to Remember: 

1. For larger groups, consider locking down playback controls to minimize chaos. Undeniably, it is least advised while creating a Netflix Watch Party via Netflix Party Extension.  

2. When using audio chat, have all participants use headphones to prevent audio feedback.

3. TwoSeven's audio and video chat may work best for smaller groups of about four people or fewer. Consider using separate programs like Skype, Hangouts, or Zoom for larger watch parties for audio and video communication.

4. To work properly, ensure that third-party cookies are enabled for streaming services like Netflix, HBO Max, Amazon, Hulu, and Disney+.
