The rise of Clubhouse can be attributed to many things, the main one being that it is a highly exclusive, audio-only social platform that is heavily praised by celebrities and influencers.

Launched in April 2020, the members-only app is now considered the next best thing, inducing FOMO for anyone who’s been waiting with bated breath to get in. In fact, in the last three months alone, the number of registered users has increased tenfold, from 600,000 in December to 6 million in February — although getting the invite remains as elusive as ever, with the app still not available on Android.

With all the buzz surrounding this new Silicon Valley spawn, it’s natural to wonder what exactly people use the Clubhouse app for. Basically, a lot of things. Here are a few things people do on the Clubhouse app, and what you can do once you’re in.

Ever wished for an app that let you listen in on other people’s conversations without being a creep? That let you into the same “virtual” room as your favorite celebrities to hear more about their inner lives, or to learn about the expertise of interesting and knowledgeable people, and even to join in on the conversation? Well, that’s Clubhouse for you.
