### 2/5 — Ausbaufähig

*2019-02-08*

Leider egal was man macht - es bleibt ein Fließtext... es ist nicht möglich Symbole nur so dazustellen oder Wörter aufleuchten zu lassen.

### 3/5 — 速度が変更の方法

*2015-10-15*

表示速度の変更方法がわかりません。
無料版が良かったから、広告を消したくて課金しましたが…
わかりません。だれか教えてください！
新幹線の広告と同じ速度にしたいのですが…

### 2/5 — Adverts - I PAID FOR THIS

*2015-09-03, version 2.2.0*

Had the original which was fine BUT the pop up adverts drove me mad and in many ways made it useless, so PAID for this version - guess what IT HAS THE SAME ADVERTS - worse still the link to the developer site in the app does not work - I want my money back !

### 3/5 — 💚

*2015-04-05*

最後の💚が途切れる

### 3/5 — Update Please

*2014-01-21, version 2.2.0*

Needs an update for at least the keyboard to iOS 7. Also with the "Music" option if it's selected but no music is playing it says "Muisc not playing."

### 4/5 — Etwas unübersichtliche Konfig aber sehr schönes Banner

*2013-11-20*

Funktioniert sehr gut und sieht sehr hübsch aus. Die Konfiguration ist etwas knobelig, aber trotzdem gut zu bedienen.

### 4/5 — 操作性はgood!

*2013-06-15*

自動表示のmusicのスペルが間違っているようです...改善をお願いいたします

### 4/5 — 重宝しています

*2012-10-17, version 2.1.0*

できれば、URLスキームを作って頂けませんか?

### 4/5 — This App is GREAT for flirting with women!

*2012-07-07, version 2.0.0*

I like this app A LOT [notice that's 2 words] !¡!¡ It's crazy how women respond to my flirts [tip: the scroll speed should be pretty fast: no one likes to wait to read].

My complaint is that the Twitter timeline mode doesn't work for me for some reason [all I've ever gotten is some error message], but the Twitter search mode does work (but that's not as fun as having the timeline scroll). Please fix this.

The mirror mode id a cute idea, which I can see being good for flirting.

Also, scrolling [fast] "Tonight's Gonna Be A Good Night" on the dance floor while that song is playing is a BLAST! Everyone around gets a KICK out of it! I recommend refraining from the blink mode. It's just plain undesireable.

This is even cool for communicating little emergencies (YOUR DRESS IS IN THE DOOR, or FLAT TIRE) to a driver.

Don't bother with the free app! Buy this one!

### 1/5 — バナーは最悪！

*2012-05-26*

UPしたら文字と一緒にバナー広告も流れる様に成った。FREEなら納得だけど、有料のアプリでコレは嫌だ～！

### 1/5 — Now you add support for iPad? After I shelled out and bought the separate iPad app!!!!

*2012-05-13, version 2.0.0*

At least fix it, and let us make the background much darker, so the banner stands out, not like it currently is, where everything is the same colour!

### 1/5 — Pésima App!!!!!!

*2012-05-10, version 2.0.0*

Es la peor App que he visto, no entiendo como usarla, no la compren!!!

### 1/5 — Dont buy!?!?!??!!! B

*2015-08-17, version 2.2.0*

Fix the scroll speed for iOS system. It doesn't show up. 
Cant email support because it all in Chinese so plz have a English version for App support! Apparently they dont want anyone to get ahold of them. Don't waste your money on this app

### 1/5 — Can't adjust scroll and blink speed

### 1/5 — Banner

*2013-02-05, version 2.2.0*

Felt scammed !!

Why anyone would want a banner if you 
could not send the banner to someone ??

Regards,

### 1/5 — Not so good

*2012-08-21, version 2.1.0*

The writing isn't clear no matter which pixels you use. That's pretty much the whole purpose of this app and you failed!?

### 1/5 — Terrible

*2012-08-12, version 2.1.0*

I just got a free one that was better than this one!!! I want my money back!!!

### 5/5 — Will you ever fix the update?

*2020-12-01, version 3.0.0*

Since ios 14.2 came out the banner app doesn’t work anymore. I love this app! Been using it since iphone 4s thanks for the updates please update this piece of beauty 😃

### 5/5 — Great fun. Works well…

*2018-02-07, version 3.0.0*

iPhone X support please!

Old reviews: The free version hooked me; this version is even better. Colour and style controls could be improved, but even so it's a no-brainer. BUY IT!

### 5/5 — Seit Jahren bewährt

*2016-07-27*

Macht Spaß, läuft auf dem iPhone 6 und iPad Air sauber. Toll, dass die App auch auf dem iPad einsetzbar ist! Danke, dass die App seit so langer Zeit gepflegt wird, das ist heute nicht so häufig!

### 5/5 — good app worth the money!

Et peut etre Facebook ? Sinon très bonne application fun pour ambiance en soirée ou autres utilisation :) bon travail pour le prix    Et pour maj je suis bloquer 4.3.5 donc si elle pouvait etre compatible :))))))) merci

### 5/5 — Still fun to play with

*2012-07-11, version 2.1.0*

I can't believe they are still improving this app.  I got it as a fun app when I first bought my iPhone.  Now its still fun to play with and they keep making it better.

### 5/5 — Still the Best Banner on iTunes!

*2012-06-20, version 2.0.0*

I was impressed with the free version of this app.  The latest update just blows the free version out of the water.  It's great for getting your message across at board meetings or flirting with the woman across the room.  ;-). This app is easy to use.  No other banner app comes close to this one.

### 5/5 — 喜欢

*2012-04-29*

很漂亮的屏幕，但是字幕可以设置不滚动的就好了！！

### 5/5 — Quedo  Mas Bien

*2012-04-24, version 2.0.0*
