## What is ToneOut?

ToneOut streams live police, fire, and EMS dispatch audio from public feeds across the United States. No ads. No account required. No subscription.

BROWSE & LISTEN
Search thousands of scanner feeds by state and county. Tap any feed to start streaming instantly. Save your favorites for quick access, and the Now Playing bar keeps you listening while you browse.

OPENMHZ INTEGRATION
ToneOut connects directly to OpenMHz, the largest database of P25 trunked radio systems in the country. Browse active calls from state police, county sheriffs, local fire, and EMS — all in real time.

DUAL LISTEN (Pro)
Monitor two scanner feeds at the same time, each with independent volume control. Follow an incident across multiple agencies without losing either channel.

BACKGROUND AUDIO (Pro)
Keep listening while using other apps. ToneOut continues playing from the Lock Screen and Control Center even when the screen is off.

TONEOUT NETWORK (Beta)
Live audio from Raspberry Pi nodes deployed in the field. Coverage is expanding as new nodes come online.

CLEAN BY DESIGN
No ads. No tracking. One-time purchases unlock Pro features — you own them permanently.
