Dear One Scream Community,

It is with mixed emotions that we write this message today. In 2015, we embarked on a journey with a vision to change how women feel when they venture out into the world. We created "One Scream," a hands-free, voice-activated safety app designed to automatically inform helpers when a woman is in distress. We believed in the power of our voices, the last tool we have when we need help, and the natural response that is a scream when fear sets in.

Our app could recognize a scream and the spoken words "One Scream" even when it was buried at the bottom of a bag. We wanted to empower women to participate whenever they wished to - in the workforce, recreational activities, pursue hobbies, and live life to the fullest, free from the fear that often holds them back.

We turned every stone on our path, embraced cutting-edge AI technology to develop our scream model, and seamlessly integrated our app into your daily phone usage. At one point, we proudly stood as the number one app in the Apple App Store.

However, despite our passion and the love our app received from users all over the world, we faced a challenging reality. While we wanted to provide this vital safety tool to as many women as possible, we struggled to generate enough revenue to sustain the business.

With heavy hearts, we have made the difficult decision to say goodbye to One Scream. We hope that, during our journey, we were able to make a positive difference in the lives of some women, helping them feel safer during their daily journeys.

We may be saying goodbye to One Scream, but we carry the hope for a more peaceful and tolerant world in our hearts. We hope that, together, we can continue to work towards a brighter and safer future for all.

As we close this chapter, we remain grateful for your support and belief in our mission. We couldn't have come this far without you.

Thank you for being part of our journey. 💛
