It is available on the web and through iOS and Android apps, with a free plan listed at free. Chat rooms support mentions, threaded replies, reactions, GIFs, attachments, polls, and pins. Audio rooms provide drop-in group audio with no stated participant limit; forum rooms support formatted posts and sorting by recency or popularity. Broadcast rooms allow up to 9 people on air and thousands of viewers, while video rooms support up to 16 people. Group tools include member questionnaires, event invitations, a calendar, token-gated rooms, and configurable roles and permissions. Geneva says its service will remain free and that it will not show ads or sell user data. Creating an account requires a phone number rather than an email address.
