Leave a Review Clubhouse
New upgrade is a bummer.
I love, love, love CH, but I’m super bummed that you removed the three upcoming rooms at the top of the hallway. I feel like I’m not going into or finding as many rooms as I used to. I don’t have the time to scroll through aaaaaall of the scheduled events to find rooms to rsvp to, mostly because I literally have to scroll through a ton of stuff that doesn’t interest me, just to find one that might. It’s really hard to navigate that portion of the app. Now, when I see rooms going on that I’m interested in, I’m late to the room because I had no idea it was going to be going on. I really love the app, but this specific part of the upgrade is hella disappointing. I’d probably be less bummed if the calendar section had a way to look for rooms by selecting the specific time or something like that. It makes no sense for me to have to scroll through hours worth of every room possible just to get to the time frame that I’m able to get on CH. I’ll still use the app, but slightly begrudgingly. Aside from that, the app is amazing.Show lessmidarakiii
Suggestions
I love the application. It is fantastic, but I find it quite difficult to tell who’s speaking, especially if there are many speakers.
I try a few tricks where I scroll and check which mics aren't muted and then try to find the bar that outlines their profile when they speak. Still, I feel like it is not very obvious, so half the time I spent either looking at one picture at a time or listened to the name that is mentioned when they start speaking.
I would love if the current speaker would be made more obvious and easier to see quickly. Maybe instantly move them to the top of the list rather than keep them in the position they joined or making the outline more noticeable or a speaker icon next to their name.Show lessKelvin749294
Very Accessible to the Blind!!!
So glad that for the first time a social platform cares about the accessibility for us the blind, and that you took the time to label almost everything and we can navagate this app easily. I give it a 95% on the accessibility. The button to schedule a new even is not labeled and some issues on the buddy list. I am bilingual English?Spanish so navagating with apple’s screen reader, VoiceOver is very easy, however, my blind people who don’t speak English are having difficulty or a little resistant to use it. Great that we can offer rooms where we can translate and help them on the translation and they can enjoy this amazing app. Thanks for practicing INcLUsION!! “INclusion Above All!”Show lessannacapri777
Pretty Cool
Clubhouse is a great app, especially considering it’s still in beta mode. I’ve been able to connect with people all over the world! Suggested improvements: 1) It’s very difficult to see who is speaking even with a modest amount of people on stage. I find myself having to ask “Who said that? I can’t find you” a little too often. I suggest making the ring around the speaker a more pronounced color such as green, orange or even black as a great first step. 2) Secondly, I find the notifications super aggressive. Even on the “infrequently” mode, I am still getting notifications back to back about the same room which is distracting when you try to play a game or other app that doesn’t turn off notifications. 3) Finally, it would be nice to have an option to look up a profile and see what room someone is in... Keep up the great work; two thumbs up, way up.Show lessYogiDoula
Great but one thing!
This is a wonderful new approach to social media. It’s so much more personal and effective at getting to really know and connect with people! That being said, I do like having the ability to link my other social media profiles on my clubhouse profile, but the issue I have here is that you can only link one Instagram account and one Twitter. I personally only have one Twitter so that is fine, but I do use multiple Instagram pages for separate niche facets of my content. For example I have a personal page, a business page, and an art page. I would love to be able to link at least two if not all of them on my clubhouse profile if possible! I feel it would be easier for people to reference my work or contact information easily during conversation if they were able to find the correct link on my profile. If that makes sense!

Great community, bad app
I’ve really enjoyed the communities on Clubhouse, but the actual experience of using the app is bad. The audio quality is terrible—the levels of every speaker vary widely, and often change dramatically within any given session. Also the fact that you can’t hear yourself when speaking is a major problem. For an app whose sole focus is audio this is unacceptable.
The ability to communicate other than actually speaking is nonexistent. It would be helpful to add some additional messaging options. And the notification options are also poor. There should be better filters to help promote rooms you only care about. The current settings don’t work well at all.
Overall, there’s a lot of potential with this app, but it needs much work, particularly with the awful audio.Show lessMilty_sug
Maddening
I wish I never joined this app. One important thing to know is that when you receive an invite, the person who invited you permanently appears on your profile. This is pretty disturbing to me, and sends my OCD into overdrive. I was invited by someone who I don’t really know, and their account looks spammy when you click on it. I don’t like the fact that I’m forever associated with this person now. It makes me look bad, and if I knew this, I would’ve just waited to be invited by a close friend. Still, though, it definitely bothers me that this information is freely displayed on every profile. Please change this. It bothers me so much and is a major privacy issue. There is also no possible way to delete this app yet either, which is extremely frustrating. So now people with my phone number can find my profile and see all this personal information and I have no way to delete the app. There’s nothing I can do. It’s about to make me have a panic attack. I’m so angry and upset right now. I hate this app.Show lessJoel Wayne
Horrible support team and “Temporary suspensions”
I loved this app when I wasn’t tempary suspended and couldn’t do anything with no info anywhere about how long it could last clubhouse never got in contact with me as they claimed they would before hand if u got temp suspended.
The problem with this app is if you get report ONE TIME that’s right O N E T I M E if it by a troll or something like that u will get temporary suspended. it’s honestly a problem because there support team DOESNT GET BACK TO YOU. All almost everyone I’ve seen on twitter or Reddit besides 1 person hasn’t gotten un “temporary suspended” after sending many emails to the company I have never been suspended on anything before until this.
Because of this one report system and bad support team me and many other people have been suspended for no reason at all it’s a actually really bad problem PLEASE FIX THIS .Show lessMy play build
I hate social media
But I love clubhouse. It gives you access to talks with high level people. It actually provides value in your life.
To the dev team, some user notes:
I have notifications enabled but banners on IOS don’t give me good information. I get a partial list of people in a room, but the banner runs out of space before I see what the room is. A better format would be “[room name]: on stage is [people names]”. As they are now, the notifications are basically useless.
On the scheduled rooms up at the top of the feed, it would be good to be able to schedule myself to listen in on the room, instead of having to remember to go back and find it again. Then get a notification that the selected room is beginning.
It would be good to be able to subscribe to recurring rooms, in addition to following users. When someone creates a room, they might have the option to “make recurring” and then select which recurring room it falls into. This would allow for unique room titles, but also allow listeners to never miss a weekly/daily room they love.
Finally, I’d say to add an estimated duration function. When someone starts a room, they put in the expected length of the discussion so that listeners can plan their time.Show lessBrosef Josef
The Best Social Media Platform For Building Your Business
Before joining Clubhouse, I was unclear on what the application would truly offer beyond being yet another social media platform. After joining Clubhouse I became aware of both how misguided I was about Clubhouse and how much as a new small business owner I needed this forum.
The connections I’ve made have been various but all have been invaluable. I’ve received what can arguably be tens of thousands of dollars worth of free advice about everything from branding to best business practices. The potential business collaborations are unfolding but I believe that they will be mutually beneficial.
I think the big challenge for Clubhouse going forward is to not try to be a platform for all people and all things. I’ve seen some of the rooms take on the postures and topics that are more “traphouse” than Clubhouse. I am not advocating classism but I think that perhaps making “hallways” for certain types of rooms may be interesting (but this may create echo chambers that would be counter Clubhouse).Show lessIkigai Guy
