Clubhouse took the social media space by storm last year when it announced its social audio app. The service remained exclusive to iOS for more than a year before arriving for Android as a limited beta last month. While Clubhouse dragged its feet on an Android release, other platforms such as Twitter announced their own version (Spaces) for both operating systems. Today, Spotify joins the growing list with its own social audio platform called Greenroom.
Spotify’s Greenroom is actually green. Literally. And it launches for Android and iOS today in over 135 countries across the world. The press release points at it being a modified version of Locker Room which is made by Betty Labs, a company Spotify acquired in March.
Greenroom is said to be built with the creators and artists that make Spotify great in mind. Nevertheless, anyone will be able to create a room, join a room, join a group, and search for upcoming rooms.
Spotify says the app will provide a new onboarding experience that puts users’ interests front and center. It will also provide recording capabilities for users to complement their content with live conversations and also have chat controls. Users will be able to join Greenroom with their Spotify login details.
Later this Summer, Spotify will also launch a Spotify Creator Fund that allows audio creators to monetize their work.
