It is worth noting that Clubhouse is currently only available on iOS, and the app is invitation-only . Despite this, its global downloads have increased significantly, and you can imagine how popular it is!

Globally, Clubhouse ranks third in the iOS social networking application rankings, behind only WhatsApp and Facebook .

When broken down into specific countries, Clubhouse ranks first in Brazil, Germany, Italy, Japan, South Korea, Turkey and other places, fifth in the United States, seventh in the United Kingdom, and tenth in France .

Not only that, Clubhouse has also entered the field of vision of Chinese users. The editor has seen in the circle of friends that many people have taken the lead in trying it out and become one of them. There is also information about selling Clubhouse accounts/invitation codes on other platforms.

As for why Clubhouse became so popular, senior market insights manager Lexi Sydow said that under the continued impact of the epidemic, users use social media as a major form of communication.

According to data from Statista, global mobile application downloads reached 218 billion times in 2020. Among them, social applications were downloaded more than 9.6 billion times , and this growth has promoted the development of new platforms such as Clubhouse.

With the help of Musk, Clubhouse became popular overnight . Not long ago, Musk also invited Putin to have a conversation with him on Clubhouse via Twitter.

However, Clubhouse, whose downloads have soared, has not had a peaceful time recently. According to foreign media reports, an unidentified user was able to stream the audio of multiple rooms on Clubhouse to their own third-party website, raising concerns about the security of Clubhouse.

In response, Clubhouse said: “User safety has always been our top priority, and it remains our top priority as we welcome more people to join.”

From the current perspective, Clubhouse is developing very rapidly. As for what heights it can reach in the future, let us wait and see!
