China s very own ByteDance is now planning to launch it s very own version of the popular audio chat app Clubhouse to release for the Chinese market. Although this could potentially be a hit, one of the biggest problems with this is what and how people would talk to each other given the strict state censorship.
China Clubhouse app
This news was reported by Reuters and for those that aren t too familiar, Clubhouse is a certain app that would allow its users to set up some sort of audio chat room. This is now getting even more popular among the Silicon Valley people. It was also reportedly available for a brief time in China.
Smartphone giant Xiaomi has revived its defunct instant messaging app MiTalk as a social audio chat platform for professionals, a move that comes weeks after Clubhouse was banned in China . The app was relaunched just eight days after the company shut down the original MiTalk on February 19 “due to changes in the business”, according to the company’s announcement.
