The social app, which saw explosive early growth during the COVID-19 pandemic, previously required people to be invited by an existing user or request to join a waitlist.

Clubhouse faces new competition from social media companies, including Facebook, Twitter, as well as streaming company Spotify, which have launched similar audio chat services

Clubhouse said it had added 10 million people since launching on Android in May

The company, which said its team had expanded since January from 8 to 58 people, launched a direct messaging feature last week
