Clubhouse is rolling out to Android users as the app’s downloads decreased by 72 percent in March 2021 as per statistics by Sensor Tower. In March, the app was downloaded 2.7 million times, down from 9.5 million in February.
The Clubhouse app on Android continues to be invite-only and follows the waitlist tradition.
