## What is ShyText?

There's a moment before hello. ShyText lives there.

ShyText is a quieter way to meet the people already around you — at the café, the bar, the library. No feed, no swiping, no map.

SHYNE WHEN YOU'RE OPEN
Being somewhere never makes you visible. When you feel like meeting someone, check in at the place you're in — a quiet, time-boxed signal to the room. Only people who Shyne at the same venue can see each other. When your time runs out, you fade back to invisible.

ONE NOTE. ONE PERSON.
See someone interesting? Send one short ShyText. If they accept, a private chat opens. If not, nothing happens — no awkwardness, no pressure.

THE REST HAPPENS OFFLINE
The chat is a bridge, not a destination. Say hi, then go say it in person.

PRIVACY IS THE DESIGN
• Your exact location is never shown — a venue name, never a pin
• Your phone number stays private; nobody ever sees it
• Lock-screen notifications never reveal the message
• No public profiles, no follower counts, no map of people

Free on iPhone.
