From today, what you used to call a channel is now called a room— across the web app, iOS, Android, and everywhere we talk about the product. It's the same feature you already use every day. We just gave it a name that fits.
“Channel” carries the wrong baggage. It sounds like a broadcast feed you tune into, or a text thread you skim later — one-directional, asynchronous, passive. That's not what whoot. is. A whoot. space is somewhere you walk into and talk, where everyone can hear and be heard in real time, the moment they press to speak.
That's a room.You step in, you're with your team, the conversation is already live. It's how trading desks, control rooms, and operations floors actually think about these spaces — so it's what we now call them.
Nothing about your setup changes.Every space you've built, every member, every permission, every recording and dial-in number is exactly where you left it. There's nothing to migrate and nothing to relearn — only the label is different.
A whoot. room is a persistent, always-on voice space — here's what it does.
This is a rename, not a redesign. There's no migration to run, no settings to rebuild, and no learning curve. Every space, member, permission, recording, and dial-in number is exactly as you left it. Your links, integrations, and API access keep working without a change. The next time you sign in, you'll just see “Room” where it used to say “Channel” — and everything else will be right where it's always been.
