Q: Do I need to be registered to use OUTSHOUTS?
You don't have to be registered -- anyone can create, send and post OUTSHOUTS for free, and without creating an account. When you sign up though, you'll be able to send to multiple email and mobile addresses, save your favorites, create a profile, and send OUTSHOUTS directly from your mobile phone.
Q: Do I need a mobile phone to use OUTSHOUTS?
No, just a valid email address. But registering your mobile makes it more fun since you can send and receive OUTSHOUTS directly from your mobile. If you don't register a mobile phone when you sign up, you can always add one later in your account settings page.
Q: What if I want to use OUTSHOUTS from a different phone number than the one I've registered?
No problem. If you happen to call in from a phone number that is different from the one you've registered, the system will just ask for your registered phone number and the first 4 letters of your password to confirm your identity. If you're calling from a foreign phone or via Skype/VOIP, the number you are prompted to enter should always be the phone number you signed up with. If you forgot to register your mobile phone number when you signed up, you can go to your account settings and enter it there.
Q: How do I purchase music I've come across on OUTSHOUTS?
Find the BUY IT button in the OUTSHOUT player and click on either "iTunes" or "Amazon." You can purchase and download either a single song or the entire album as a download from iTunes, or you can purchase the entire album on CD and have it shipped from Amazon.
Q. I can't hear my voice when I use the recorder. What's going on?
Check to see that your computer has a microphone installed and that the volume control on your OUTSHOUTS player is on max (slide it to the right).
