About

Multiplex is an app to watch torrents together, providing an experience similar to Apple's SharePlay and Amazon's Prime Video Watch Party.

It enables you to:

- Stream any file directly using a wide range of video and audio formats with the mpv video player - Host online watch parties while preserving your privacy by synchronizing video playback with friends without a central server - Bypass internet restrictions by optionally separating the backend and user interface into two separate components
