Temporary Rooms
Create one quickly with a Room name, Room password, nickname, and private Owner PIN. Temporary Rooms include chat, reactions, GIFs when enabled, access protection, and moderation controls. Temporary Rooms may display advertising.
The Room name is not held for you, and the Room and its history should not be treated as permanent.
Reserved Rooms
A Reserved Room keeps its Room name while its annual subscription is active. It can retain settings and limited history, use expanded ownership and management controls, allow supported photos, and include Theater and Music areas.
Owners can keep the Room unlisted or publish a listing in Find Rooms when the Room qualifies. Available entry choices include Room password, open, and knock entry. The current price is $19.99 per year, with checkout providing final confirmation.
