Houseparty will automatically recognize your contacts and friends who have already signed up, allowing you to dive into chats almost instantly. You can opt to give the app access to your phone's contact book, plus you can also pair the service with Facebook and Snapchat to spread your friend net as wide as possible. Once you've chosen that killer username, it’s time to link up the service to your contacts.
As Houseparty has been around for several years, a lot of the obvious usernames are already taken, so you may need to get a little creative. You'll need to enter your name, email address, mobile number and choose a unique username. Have you downloaded Houseparty? Excellent, next you'll need to sign up, tap the app and follow the on-screen instructions for sign up.
