Some things are easier to show than to shout. Shouty turns your phone into a bright, scrolling LED sign that can be read from across a stadium, a station concourse, or a dark parking lot.
Type your message, tap Show My Sign, and rotate. Your screen fills edge to edge with text that scrolls at whatever speed you choose, at full brightness, without sleeping. No account, no sign-up: it works the moment you open it.
Waving at arrivals. Getting a taxi to stop. Asking for one more song. Shouty is a five-second interaction you reach for when words aren't loud enough.
the problem
Why it exists
Sometimes you need to be seen, not heard: across an arrivals hall, a dark car park, or a crowd that drowns you out. Shouty is a five-second way to make one sentence readable from the other side of it.

faq
Questions
Do I need an account?
No. There is no account and no sign-up. Shouty works the moment you open it, and it works offline permanently.
Does my message get sent anywhere?
No. Shouty has no servers and makes no network requests. Whatever you type stays in your phone's own app storage.
Will it change my screen brightness permanently?
No. Brightness is raised for the app's own window when a sign opens, and your original setting is restored the moment you leave.
How do I clear my sign history?
Settings → Reset erases your history at any time. Deleting the app removes everything Shouty has stored.
Can I share a sign as an image?
Yes. Any sign can be exported as a picture and handed to your device's standard share sheet. Nothing is uploaded by Shouty.
Is it safe to use anywhere?
Use judgement. Never use Shouty while driving, and never where it could distract drivers or interfere with emergency services. See the safety note on the app page if you are sensitive to flashing or moving imagery.
please note
Before you start
Shouty displays bright, rapidly scrolling, high-contrast content and can raise your screen to maximum brightness. If you have photosensitive epilepsy or any condition triggered by flashing or moving imagery, use caution or do not use this app, and stop immediately if you experience dizziness, disorientation, altered vision, or involuntary movement. Never use Shouty while driving or operating a vehicle, and never in a way that distracts drivers, obstructs anyone whose attention affects the safety of others, or interferes with emergency services. You are solely responsible for what you display and where you display it.
