Watch streaming parties with a large company

Kast is a video sharing application developed by Evasyst for desktop and mobile. It gives you the power to watch and share any movies, TV shows, or games together with more than a hundred people. It contains screen capture, voice, text, and video chat technology that makes your communication among your family or friends fun and interactive. 

Join other’s party or host one

Once you launched the Kast app, you will immediately see its sleek and intuitive user interface that is partnered with a dark background—perfect for a viewing party. On the home page, you’ll instantly spot all the ongoing streaming group parties that you could join. When you click a certain party, you’ll see all the moderators and members of the group, as well as who’s currently watching. All the parties you have joined will show up under the “My Parties” section.

If you want to invite your friends, family, or anyone for a streaming party, just click on the group name that was automatically created when you signed up then click “Invite.” You can search your friends, choose among random people shown in the prompt, or copy and share the link to your loved ones. This specific group party is private only—thus, those who are uninvited can never access it. Hosting a new streaming group party is also possible. Just click “Create Party” then you’ll be able to customize your party names, header photo, description, tags, language, and privacy—you have the option to make it Private or Public.

Kast has tons of promising features. However, its performance and execution are devastatingly poor. Most of the video and audio streams are not working. Some may work but the streaming is choppy and the video contains low resolution. Thus, it is recommended for you to perhaps try other programs instead, as this video-sharing app will not meet your expectations, as well as satisfy your needs and wants for a video streaming service.

Softonic

In Softonic we scan all the files hosted on our platform to assess and avoid any potential harm for your device. Our team performs checks each time a new file is uploaded and periodically reviews files to confirm or update their status. This comprehensive process allows us to set a status for any downloadable file as follows:

Clean

It’s extremely likely that this software program is clean.

What does this mean?

We have scanned the file and URLs associated with this software program in more than 50 of the world's leading antivirus services; no possible threat has been detected.

Warning

This software program is potentially malicious or may contain unwanted bundled software.

Why is the software program still available?

Based on our scan system, we have determined that these flags are possibly false positives.

What is a false positive?

It means a benign program is wrongfully flagged as malicious due to an overly broad detection signature or algorithm used in an antivirus program.

We’d like to highlight that from time to time, we may miss a potentially malicious software program. To continue promising you a malware-free catalog of programs and apps, our team has integrated a Report Software feature in every catalog page that loops your feedback back to us.

Flag any particular issues you may encounter and Softonic will address those concerns as soon as possible.
