Share a List with Collaborators

Invite others to view or edit a list, and optionally sync watch progress.

Last updated February 4, 2026

Sharing a list lets you collaborate with friends or family. You control who can edit the list and whether watch progress should sync across collaborators.

  • You must be the list owner to add or remove collaborators.
  • You’ll need the other person’s username in WatchThis.
  1. Open the list you want to share.
  2. Click Share.
  3. In Add Collaborator, enter the person’s username.
  4. Choose a permission level:
    • Collaborator (can edit the list)
    • Viewer (read-only)
  5. Click Add.

Manage Collaborators Modal

The collaborator will see the list in their lists view.

  1. Open the list → Share.
  2. In the Collaborators section, click the trash icon next to a user.
  3. Confirm removal.

In Settings, the list owner can enable:

Sync watch status & TV schedules with collaborators

When enabled, watch status changes, episode progress, and TV schedules can synchronize across collaborators for titles in that list.
