Greenroom is available to download for both iOS and Android users. It is a separate app from Spotify. However, the app follows the same green and black color theme as its parent app. The company has promoted their new app as a platform for music fans to connect with their favorite artists and athletes.

Development and Features

Spotify recently acquired Betty Labs to extend its ecosystem. Betty Labs is a tech company and the original developer of an app called ‘Locker Room’. Locker Room is an audio based platform for sports enthusiasts. Hence, Spotify has modified the existing app by integrating its brand theme and other music centered contents.

There are some additional features that can help Greenroom standout from Clubhouse. The app will be keeping record of every live session for content moderation. Contents that promote unsuitable subjects like hate speech, violence and harassment will be eliminated. Spotify’s recommendation system can also be a significant factor to enhance Greenroom user experience.

Spotify Greenroom for Content Creators

Greenroom will soon bring monetization service to attract content creators in its platform. Spotify has already announced Creators Fund which will generate revenue for top creators. Users will get rewarded for creating must-hear live audio on Spotify Greenroom.
