Voice social network Clubhouse said on Sunday it will expand its Android app worldwide in a week, days after launching a beta version of its service on Google-owned mobile operating system<\/a> for users in the U.S.<\/p>\n

The startup \u2014 backed by A16z, Tiger Global and DST Global and\u00a0valued at about $4 billion<\/a>\u00a0\u2014 said it will roll out the Android app to Japan, Brazil, and Russia on Tuesday; Nigeria and India three days later, and rest of the world by Friday afternoon.<\/p>\n

Clubhouse originally launched as an iPhone-only app last year. The app quickly gained popularity last year, attracting several high-profile celebrities, politicians, investors and entrepreneurs.<\/p>\n

The startup began developing the Android app early this year<\/a> and started to test the beta version<\/a> externally this month. In a town hall earlier this month, the startup said availability on Android has been the most requested product feature.<\/p>\n

Clubhouse\u2019s global rollout on Android comes at a time when scores of technology firm including Facebook<\/a>, Twitter<\/a>, Discord<\/a>, Spotify<\/a>, Reddit<\/a>\u00a0and Microsoft\u2019s LinkedIn<\/a>, have either launched their similar offerings \u2014 or announced plans to do so.<\/p>\n

Twitter\u2019s clone of Clubhouse, called Spaces, has emerged as one of the biggest competitors.<\/p>\n

Meanwhile, Clubhouse has struggled to maintain its growth pace in recent months \u2014 based on download figure estimates by several mobile insight firms. The Android app could potentially help the startup court more users.<\/p>\n

The startup continues to maintain an invitation system for onboarding new users, saying that this is part of its effort to\u00a0\u201ckeep the growth measured.\u201d<\/p>\n

The Android app of Clubhouse currently lacks a number of features. At the time of launch last week, users couldn\u2019t follow a topic, create or manage a club, link their social profiles, make payments, or change their profile name of user name. The startup said it is working to bring iOS features to the Android app.<\/p>\n
