Spotify announces Greenroom, a new competitor for the suddenly-popular category of livestreaming voice chat apps like Clubhouse and Twitter Spaces.
Although Greenroom carries Spotify’s branding, it’s a separate app altogether. It works with the same basic premise as Twitter Spaces and Clubhouse. One user creates an audio-only room with listeners able to tune in and participate. The creator of the room can control whether anyone speaks or only certain folks.
Spotify positions Greenroom as a way to connect with people to “join the conversation”. It features music, sports, and culture as topics of discussion, but it looks like a user can create a room about any topic.
