Dropout Helper
Description from store

This is a simple extension adds a number of small QOL features for Dropout. Additionally, it includes a watch party feature that allows for easily watching videos in sync with other people.

Currently available features:
- Save current playback rate settings for other videos
- Watch Parties: Synchronize your friends video players with yours to watch content perfectly in sync
- Scheduled watch sessions: Synchronize everyone's video players based on a fixed starting time: Useful for large scheduled watch parties, e.g. on community Discord servers

Note that volume and subtitle settings are now saved correctly by Dropout/Vimeo, and no longer require this add-on.

This extension was wonderful! But as of October 1 2025 it seems to be no longer supported on the website? Or maybe needs a patch? Hope it's resolved soon!

This extension worked wonderfully up until today. I'm n t sure what happened but the "create watch party" button disappeared. Mr. Thiemann is you're still monitoring this browser my sister and I would love it if you worked your magic again! <3

Dropout Helper says "Nothing to do here." I made sure that I am using the full URL (www.dropout.tv), have cleared my browser cache, updated Chrome, etc. Nothing works. What am I doing wrong? I am on a Mac running MacOS 26.0 Tahoe. I should add that I subscribed to Dropout specifically to use this extension for watch parties with my daughter, so that functionality is critical.

Awesome! The app is actually watchable now! Thanks :)

The saving subtitle style saving doesn't work which mainly is the purpose for me downloading the extension. Tried both Chrome and Firefox
Jared Cordaro
it's been great overall but it doesn't save subtitle settings anymore and that's the main reason i use it
Jayden Santos
Everything works with the exception of the subtitle styles saving. If that could be worked out I think this would be a perfect extension for QOL when watching on dropout. (on windows 11 w/ most recent update of google chrome)
