Shout Southend

ShoutSouthend is the social app built for Southend-on-Sea and the surrounding areas — made to help you meet real people, make spontaneous plans, and actually go do things together.

Tired of endless swiping that leads nowhere? ShoutSouthend puts real connection first. See who's out right now, join hangouts happening nearby, and turn "we should hang out sometime" into "meet you there in 10."

VOICE SHOUTS Drop a 15-second voice note anywhere on the map. Hear what's actually happening around Southend, in people's own voices. Voice Shouts last 24 hours and play with subtle haptics, so you feel the speaker as you listen.

GO LIVE ON THE MAP Broadcast your location when you're out and about. Heading to the seafront? Grabbing coffee on the High Street? Let others know you're around and open to meeting up. Live sessions last 2 hours — long enough to make plans, short enough to stay spontaneous.

DISCOVER YOUR PEOPLE Find locals who share your vibe. Whether it's beach walks, nightlife, gaming, fitness, or just good food and drinks — discover people nearby who are into the same things.

START A HANGOUT Pub quiz? Beach volleyball? Last-minute pint? Create a hangout and invite others to join. Perfect for when you want company but your usual crew is busy.

CROSSED PATHS Ever wonder about the person you keep seeing at your favourite café? Crossed Paths shows you who you've been near recently — a second chance at a first impression.
