User reviews

Simple but so useful.

It’s fairly straightforward but I’ve found myself using it repeatedly in certain extremely loud situations and it’s so useful.

Great App

Good stuff Ben!

Everybody should have this app

I think everybody should have this app on their phone at 2.8 MB it takes almost nothing in the way of space and you will find lots of occasional use For it
Examples of how I have used it. Communicating with the wife about the fact a child needed a diaper change. Communicating with with restaurant staff
Directions somebody to contact authorities in emergency situation quietly. “ call 911!!now!! Etc. or sometimes just make my wife smile from across the room
