Take back a shout-out and see who gave one

Tap the 📣 megaphone again to take back a shout-out. Anyone can see who gave one: tap or hold the megaphone to open the list.

1. Find the megaphone you lit

   It's filled in, or shows Shouted out on the website's post page.

2. Tap it again

   The shout-out is taken back quietly. The count drops by one and the megaphone goes back to normal.

What happens when you take it back

• The post, story or listing stops appearing on your followers' Home because of you.
• The writer isn't told you took it back.
• If you once added a comment with your shout-out, it stays as an ordinary reply, without its Shouted out badge. Delete it separately if you want it gone. See Add a comment to your shout-out.
• You keep following the post. To stop its notifications, see Follow a post or stop its notifications.

You can give it again later by tapping once more.

See who gave a shout-out

The list of who gave a shout-out is public, newest first.

The list is called Shout-outs. Tap a name to open their profile. If nobody has given one, you'll see No shout-outs yet. On your own things, the megaphone only appears once someone has given one.

Where you'll see your shout-outs counted

The number beside the megaphone is the total. On the website's feed cards the megaphone is a round button, and the count shows on the card. Your followers see a line on the card, such as “Priya gave this a shout-out”.
