Clubhouse has one more update before we all go on holiday break, in the form of a new ‘Saved Replays’ option, which enables users to save the audio from recorded Clubhouse chats for listening later on. In the most direct comparison, it’s kind of like manually saving your favorite Spotify songs or playlists to your smartphone.
A Close Save
Twitter Crypto Specialist Partner Jane Manchun Wong actually uploaded a couple of screenshots that shows how we’ll be able to save replays for a room by tapping on the three dots menu from either the hallway or a live-room. Upon tapping, you should see an option labelled as ‘Save Replay’. You can then find saved replays via a new share icon at the top of your profile.
Just last month, CLubhouse officially launched its Room recording option, after having been spotted in testing by various users. The capacity to save rooms audio for later use added variably to the functionality and utility of the option, providing overall additional versatility to the Clubhouse experience.
However, at this point in time, it’s very likely that not a lot of people would care. Clubhouse, after such hype and buildup earlier this year, has almost, suddenly disappeared from the face of the Earth. While audio social still stands to be a viable engagement channel, it’s clear now that Clubhouse, though shows potential, is no game-changing player – it may have been at one point, but the most prominent player in that space, for the time being, is most likely Twitter.
Despite a somewhat bleak year, all hope is not lost in the format. As such, providing additional usage options can only be beneficial, especially given that this process helps significantly, and to an extent, sentimentally, extend the value of chats. Likewise, if Clubhouse is now indeed at its lowest, then it can only go up, with the proper management and shot calling of course. Perhaps if Clubhouse was also introduced to Android users, then perhaps statistics might be a little different, market-exclusivity has shown to greatly impact certain performance numbers, as you’d effectively be excluding potentially significant user-bases from partaking in offer take-up.
Also, Clubhouse has unveiled a new app icon, with streaming influencer Abraxas Higgins essentially becoming the new Clubhouse Ambassador. As Clubhouse explains it:
“A former Wall Street banker turned music marketing strategist turned audio influencer. In addition to being the host of Clubhouse’s beloved morning show 9AM in London, Abraxas is also the most followed person in the UK on Clubhouse and makes more money now from brand partners than he did as an investment strategist.”
The Wrap
Based on this particular Clubhouse success story, you can see that it’s possible to make money on Clubhouse, so long as you make the right decisions. Then again, Abraxas learned how to be an influencer before ever headlining on Clubhouse, which isn’t something everyone is equipped to do.
Either way, there’s still a respectable number of people using Clubhouse. It’s especially popular in India. In fact, the region is now its largest market, indicating that there’s still good potential for the audio app to gain favorable ground.
