Clubhouse, a voice-based social media application, is finally launching its Android app. The application is live to download from the Play Store if you live in the US. This application will be a beta version, and the company promises to launch it in other English-speaking countries soon. The app is still invite-only, which means only if a person is available on the app, then he can invite his friend, and then only the user can access the app. This is only possible only if you live in the US only.
The social networking app was launched last year only for iPhone users. The app was valued at $4 billion in its most recent fundraising. The app gained popularity quickly last year, attracting many high-profile celebrities, politicians, investors, and entrepreneurs.
Clubhouse began developing the Android version at the beginning of this year. The company mentioned that the availability of Clubhouse on Android is the most requested feature. Considering the request, the company has rolled out its beta version and will be taking feedback from the users before going global. The company says it is still sticking with the invite-only feature to keep a count on its users before going big.
According to recent statistics, the popularity of the application has gone down. The downloads of the applications have been low when compared to last year. Other companies that have already been on social media for several years have taken the opportunity to make their own versions of Clubhouse. Twitter’s clone of Clubhouse has been one of the main competitors to the startup.
“As we head into the summer and continue to scale out the backend, we plan to begin opening up even further, welcoming millions (of) more people in from the iOS waitlist, expanding language support, and adding more accessibility features, so that people worldwide can experience Clubhouse in a way that feels native to them,” says the company.
