With social isolation, those days of getting together with friends to watch movies or binge-watch series at the weekend are long gone. Now, the company Hearo has launched the Hearo Live service, which allows you to watch movies, series, shows and sports with friends and family who live far away, all virtually through a personalized room. You can create a room and invite people or even join an existing room created by your friends and communicate by voice, without having to write.
The company's CEO Edward Lerner imagined the new Hearo Live service as a new version of the Greek amphitheaters, where people could meet and watch events, but in a more modern and contemporary way, with the possibility of watching movies and series as well. In an interview with GamesBeat, "Ned" (as the CEO is known) revealed that the service was supposed to launch in March. However, in an interview, the CEO states that with the Covid-19 pandemic, Hearo Live ended up being postponed, as many live events were canceled, including NCAA basketball games, which were scheduled to take place at the time of the launch. Therefore, Edward believes that during the end-of-year holidays, the service will have many users.
Services included in Hearo Live
Despite these difficulties, Hearo took the time to think about what users could watch on the app besides sporting events, and came up with the idea of including streaming services for movies and series such as Netflix, Disney+ and Prime Video. In addition, some other services are also available, such as YouTube, ESPN, Twitch, TNT, NBC Sports and Fox Sports. YouTube and Twitch users, for example, will not need to have paid accounts to watch shared content. Depending on growth, Edward Lerner believes that other partners may join Hearo Live next year.
