In a bid to keep users more engaged while they communicate using its Messenger, Facebook is reportedly testing a new feature called 'Watch Videos Together'.

As the name indicates, the feature allows friends in a group chat watch a synchronized video together, Cnet reported.

Watch Videos Together also allows everyone in the chat to control the video and see who's watching. The feature was discovered by a user Ananya Arora who posted screenshots of the code.

Facebook, on the other hand, said that it is always testing new features in Messenger, which basically means the said feature may or may not actually go live for everyone.
