The media application determines that a second device associated with a second user profile is generating for display a second media asset and the second user profile is designated to share a counterpart version of media consumed in association with the second user profile with the first device. The media application identifies a time to share a counterpart version of the second media asset.

The overlay comprises the counterpart version of the second media asset and a plurality of user interface options.
