'Bingee' is a new app designed to help groups binge watch their favorite shows together. Since the rise of Netflix, binge-watching television series' has become a popular pastime. Now there is an app that turns a television marathon into a social experience.
Bingee is a group binge-watching app that can be used on an iPhone or iPad. Users can binge watch their favorite shows either by joining a public binge or setting up a private binge with friends. One the user has set up a binge group on a second screen, they can start marathoning their favorite series. Users can then chat back and forth as the show is going on for a social viewing experience.
The app is likely to appeal to millennial consumers who are looking for new ways to turn solo activities into social experiences shared with friends.
