When you need to share a talking point

Working in a public policy realm there were countless times I held up a quick reminder of a talking point when someone was in a meeting or conducting an interview.

Yes, this is great for ordering in a loud bar, but it’s fabulous for reminding someone in a meeting about a key point when they’re speechifying.

Now updated to iOS 16, nothing else like it!

Love the app as it has now been upgraded to iOS 16! I’ve looked and as far as I know there’s no other app like it! 😊

Hi Reztnulb -- ask and you shall receive! The new SideCast 4.0.0 that is compatible with iOS 16 just launched today so please download the latest version to enjoy the best messaging experience yet. Please update your review after downloading the latest version, and thank you in advance!

Love this app.

We use SideCast whenever we want to show someone a message quickly from a distance.

They don’t even have to get a phone out or have a phone, as the app automatically formats the text to be read from far away.

So thankful for the recent updates to clean up the app for new devices!!! Thanks!

Super Useful with Families

This is one of those handy little apps that end up being a lot more useful than you expect. I frequently use it to share a note with someone when I can’t speak out loud (because my kids will overhear, because someone’s on the phone, etc). Highly recommend!

Needs an update

I really enjoy this app, but it hasn’t been updated for 6 years and no longer works properly with the latest IOS.

Straightforward and Useful

Useful for sales and getting people’s attention. It’s helped me get the point across amongst large crowds. Howe ever, not a fan of the time limit, hence the 4-star rating.

Hi Triforcechaotix, cool name! The new SideCast 4.0.0 just launched today so please download the latest version to enjoy the best messaging experience yet. For $1, the timer will go away and you'll have infinite time forever. SideCast was built by just 1 person (me), so hopefully that's agreeable to you. Please let me know what else I can do to earn that 5th star!

One of my faves - NEEDS UPDATE

I absolutely adore SideCast. Have used it for communicating while on calls, across the room, during concerts, and to make people crack up! It’s so simple but so very effective.

With the new iOS SideCast doesn’t seem to work when you turn it to ‘cast’.

I know there haven’t been many updates for a few years, this one is all we need - just let it work again, please! Pretty, pretty please!

Doesn’t work with iOS 16

I have enjoyed this app for a couple years and just upgraded to iOS 16 and now when I rotate the phone to show a message, it doesn’t do anything.
It just stays on the previous message composure screen. I’m not totally surprised as it hasn’t had an update in 5 years with the last one making it compatible with iOS 10. 😳
