There’s nothing quite like it on the App Store. ### 4/5 — Very practical application. *2022-08-12, version 1.1.3* I quite agree with Fz James comment. Apart from the improvements that he mentioned, I wish the developer will soon make an update to allow us to choose the size of the sign; as for now, the drawing files cannot be used “in the state” by the tarpaulin or poster printer. It would be good to be able to choose : 1x2 / 2x3 / 3x4 / 4x5 / 5x 6 / 6x8 etc ….. ### 5/5 — BEST APP EVER FOR SMALL BUSINESSES PERIOD *2020-04-22, version 1.1.2* You know how tired i get of things not working in life? Well this app works 100% of the time. You need a sign for staff, walkway or the front door.. its simple as open then pick layout type then print. Its not a fancy app with 4,000 options but it is a app that works and Fast and always.. it would be cool to add features but then it would not be Simple ... for this reason all real users should give it 5 stars thanks ### 1/5 — Paid version rip off *2019-01-06* Bought the “Premium Version” for £1.99 No difference from free version Would not let me add photos from camera roll Unable to contact app developer support AVOID!!! ### 1/5 — Had to reinstall, lost premium *2018-01-07, version 1.0.9* Had to reinstall and lost the premium version that I paid for. No support from ap developer. ### 4/5 — Great APP & make additionals pls! 😊 *2015-12-15, version 1.0.4* Great APP! I think this is the only app that do this.. For now its ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ coz still it is lack of other signs like long fire-arm, wifi sign, Dog, car crash sign etc. please please make an update! 😃 I would recommend this to my friends who owns sticker shops! ### 4/5 — ... *2015-09-25* Boring nothing much too do it's okay. But seriously nothing much too do ### 5/5 — Fun, easy and good-looking *2013-03-09, version 1.0.1* This is a well-executed and potentially very useful app for anyone needing a quick, professional iPad sign. On my iPad Mini I did not have any crashing problem. (I did pay the $1.99 to unlock all designs.) I use it at sign-up and registration tables, to help direct and inform people. ### 1/5 — Fix it *2013-02-07, version 1.0.1* The app crashes as soon as you open it. ### 1/5 — Does not work!!!! *2013-01-22, version 1.0.1* Bought the upgraded version and it crashes and will not open!!! ## Frequently asked questions about Instant Sign ### What devices does Instant Sign support?
