Clubhouse has finally started testing a beta version of its Android app.
The beta version of the app is rolling out to a handful of friendly testers.
Clubhouse says it will welcome more Android users over the coming weeks.
Earlier this year, iPhone-exclusive social app Clubhouse announced that it had finally started working on its Android app. As spotted by the folks at
XDA Developers, Clubhouse has confirmed in a new blog post that it has started rolling out a rough beta version of its Android app to some testers.
While there s still no word on exactly when the Android version of Clubhouse will be released, it has confirmed plans of welcoming more Android users over the coming weeks. Some of Clubhouse s main rivals including Twitter s Spaces and Telegram s Voice Chat 2.0 are already available on Android. In the coming months, more Clubhouse alternatives from companies like Slack, Spotify, and LinkedIn are expected to hit Android.

It’s amazing that given social media app Clubhouse’s popularity right now, it’s still only available for iOS users. Those on Android that have been waiting for the audio chat app to come to their devices might be getting it soon. The developers have now announced that they are finally starting beta tests for selected Android users. Earlier this year, they announced that they have been able to secure a second round of funding so it’s no surprise that they are now hard at work in developing the Android app to get a bigger slice of the pie for this growing market.
