Abstract
Systems and methods for providing asynchronous consumption of streaming media are disclosed. One computer-implemented method may include: receiving, from a first user device associated with a first user, a request to share a multimedia content with a second user, the request identifying the multimedia content, a first user profile associated with the first user, and data associated with the second user; retrieving a second user profile associated with the second user based on the received request; causing to be displayed, on a second user device associated with the second user, a notification alerting the second user of the request; receiving, from the second user device, a response accepting the request; and linking the first user profile with the second user profile for the shared multimedia content to enable viewing activity of both the first user and the second user to be shared and synced with one another.
