Table of contents:
Podcast social networks are experiencing an incredible boom, and these weeks there is a lot of talk about Stereo, the alternative to Clubhouse that you can find on AndroidThis new social network is supported by the podcast fever in which we are still immersed, allowing you to generate your own radio channel to have chats with your friends or do interviews with your contacts and further expand your brand if you are a professional of the comunication.
Unlike Clubhouse, the other social network that has been making headlines in recent days, Stereo is available on Google Play as well as iOS This greater ease of access, together with a powerful communication campaign supported by major influencers such as AuronPlay, Cristinini or Willyrex, has led many users to end up embracing Stereo as their new reference podcast application.
How the Stereo app works
An advantage of this social network launched in 2020 is that no prior invitation is needed, so you can easily investigate how the Stereo app worksThis difference from Clubhouse is also giving it quite an advantage. As soon as you enter the application, you will be asked for your phone number and you will receive a code to validate your account. The next step will be to create your username and avatar, and you can start using Stereo.
The first thing you will find will be a series of recommended users, mainly influencers, but you can also check who has Stereo among your contacts.If you decide to skip this step, the live broadcasts that are being broadcast at that moment will appear, as can be seen in the image. You can interact with them by sending your audios to ask them a question or following any of the two participants.
To send a message, just press the microphone button to record while you speak and when you release it, it is sent automatically. The process is the same as with WhatsApp audio, so you're probably already familiar with it. The audios must have a minimum duration of three seconds.
How can I broadcast live in Stereo
Once familiar with the interface of the application, it remains to know how I can broadcast live in Stereo In order to create your own broadcasts, at the top right you will find the 'Go LIVE' button.A peculiarity of Stereo is that the broadcasts are always done as a duo, so you'll have to find a partner to start chatting, something that has already received some criticism on Google Play and the App Store. The application offers you two options: find a random companion among those who are online at the moment or start a chat with a friend of yours.
If you prefer adventure and want to start a chat with a stranger, the application will ask you to accept its terms of use and, of course, not to break the law. It is forbidden to remain silent for more than two minutes or use pre-recorded content Keep in mind that Stereo has the possibility of reporting to other users at all times, so any behavior that deviates from the required respect and civility can be sent to the team of moderators.The battle to be the dominant audio social network has just begun.
