Clubhouse introduces in-room chat – Digital lifestyle

Clubhouse has introduced “in-room chat” which will allow users — from the mods to the listeners in the audience — to communicate with each other via text during a live room.

For creators, in-room chat will offer another touchpoint with audiences in a room & provide a way to get feedback in real time.

Here’s how it will work:

  • Creators in control. Creators will always have full control over in-room chat. They can decide if chats are enabled when they start a room via the room composer. Creators also can delete any message during the live rooms or after a room ends and turn off in- room chat at any time during the room.
  • Delete your typos. If you’ve sent a message and want to delete it, you can delete your own messages during the live room or after a room ends.
  • Mods can mod. You can appoint mods to help you maintain the tone you want for your room & they will be able to delete messages during the live room.
  • Catch up on chats after the room is over. Room chats will also appear when someone is listening to the Replay of the room (though they won’t be able to add any additional comments to the chat).

If chats are enabled, everyone will see a chat icon at the bottom left of their screen (next to the Share & Clip icons).
