Choose Temporary Room for a conversation you do not need to hold
A Temporary Room is free to create with a Room name, Room password, and nickname. It is suitable for a quick meetup, a one-time event, or a group that does not need to reserve the Room name. Temporary Rooms may display advertising, do not provide normal photo sharing, and should not be treated as permanent storage.
The person who creates it receives current owner authority for that live Room, but there is no paid persistent-owner Sign In path or Owner PIN.
Choose Reserved Room for everyday persistent chat and media
Reserved Room holds the Room name while its subscription is active. It supports persistent settings and recent history, photos when allowed, and the optional Theater and Music areas. It uses standard privacy controls and does not include the automatic Discretion Settings presets.
Current pricing is $2.99/month or $29.99/year.
Choose Private Room for added device discretion
Private Room is designed for groups that want persistent chat and photos with Discretion Settings. Those settings can cover the conversation when JoinRooms leaves the foreground, cover after selected inactivity, and keep notifications generic or turn them off for that Room on the device.
Private Room does not include Theater or Music. Current pricing is $4.99/month or $49.99/year.
Choose Room Plus when the group wants both
Room Plus combines the persistent Room and media areas with Discretion Settings. It is the plan for a group that expects to use photos, Theater, or Music and also wants the eligible automatic screen-cover and notification choices.
Current pricing is $7.99/month or $79.99/year.
Questions to ask before choosing
- Does the group need the Room name to remain held between visits?
- Will people share photos, or use Theater and Music?
- Are automatic screen covering and device-level notification choices important?
- Is a free short-term Room enough for this conversation?
