That’s comparable to Facebook and higher than other popular apps like Instagram, Messenger and Snapchat.  What is HouseParty? The coronavirus-related lockdowns have led to a resurgence in the app’s popularity around the world. It was downloaded 50 million times in the space of just a month, which is 70 times more than usual. Other video chat services, like Zoom and Skype, are often used by companies for remote work, whereas HouseParty is mainly aimed at younger generations.
