Rooms are where the conversations happen on Clubhouse. Here is a quick tour of your typical room, starting from the top and moving down:
- All Rooms: tap the button to go back to the hallway to see other rooms!
- Community Guidelines: tap the "document" icon to view the Clubhouse Community Guidelines, which detail our principles, rules, reporting and investigation policies, and other useful info.
- User profile: tap on the small profile photo in the top right to navigate to your profile.
- Room title: if the room has a title, you'll see it displayed at the top above the speakers. If a club is hosting the conversation, you'll also see the club name (next to a little house icon).
- Stage: this is where you'll see the speaker's avatars.
- Moderator badge: the green star next to a speaker's name means they're a room moderator.
- “Followed by speakers”: this section shows you which listeners are followed by the speakers. If you’re a speaker, this helps see which of your friends are in the room, making it easier to call them up!
- Others in the room: users who are not yet followed by any of the speakers are shown here.
- Backchannel: the paper airplane at the lower right opens our in-app messaging feature where you can start or respond to text chats!
- Raise hand: this button will be tappable when moderators are open to taking questions.
- Ping (+): this allows you to invite other users into the room! (as long as they follow you, of course)
- Mute / unmute: when you're in the audience, you won't see this icon since you're always muted by default; when you become a speaker, you'll see it. Tap to mute / unmute yourself.
- Leave quietly: tap the leave quietly or peace sign emoji to exit the room. No one will be notified, so feel free to duck out anytime. 🙂
