Best App for Communicating with the hearing impaired
This is the best app for quickly communicating with the hearing impaired. You can type the sentence or phrase you want to say and simply tilt the phone in landscape and your message scrolls across the screen. The text is large and easily readable even from a distance. The scroll speed is likewise adjustable. What I found extremely useful and quick is using the dictate button and dictate the phrase or sentence you want to say. Best App ever for the hearing impaired.

Great idea, if it worked!!!!
What a waste of $2 , the app constantly crashes and the presets do not save upon exit!! Dont waste your money!!!! GArbage!
Does not install
Give this a miss. Paid but installation failed. Just hangs.
This is the one.
I play guitar in 3 bands and I need this in crowded clubs. I've tried all the other apps like this and this one is by far the best! Finally it's fast to use and you can see it ACROSS THE ROOM. I used it on stage last weekend and the audience finally could read it. The sound engineer downloaded it the minute he saw mine. Make sure you have a protective case though cos the ladies all wanted to play with it;) Excellent job!

Not sure of it's just me?
Great app, love the idea. It's constantly crashing for me though. I can't save a phrase or delete the preset without it crashing. I've tried restarting but to no avail. I'm hoping this wasn't a waste of 1.99........
Awesome!!
All I want is a variety of colors and this app is perfect
Cool!
I like this app!
Dynamite App
I used this app to razz my buddies at the golf course - it was great fun.
It's so easy a Caveman can do it!
Sky Text
I was kind of skeptical when I bought this application because it was $1.99...but I was trying it out and I like it a lot! I can't wait to actually make use of it. If you were trying to get someones attention across the room the letters are definitely big enough!
Very cool
This is a great AP... Very usefull and fun. Works great. A must have.
I Like This App
It's a nicely done app, easy to use. I've already had a lot of fun with it!
It works like it's supposed to..!!!
Fast and easy, just the way I like my iPhone APP's...
Any situation where it's too loud (the environment is inappropriate) or you feel silly, Sky Text works great. Need two Bud Lites (Sky Text it) Need to go pee at a rock show (sky Text it)
I've tried a few of the other BIG text billboards for iPhone and Sky Text is the only one I felt worked properly and as advertised... I use it all the time (even in business meetings) Yeah.. that's right

Great Idea - Very Useful App !
I tried Sky Text mostly just to see how it worked. It is a very cool application and works great. What I did not expect, however, was to end up using it so much. In less than a week of having it installed on my iPhone, I've actually found many occcasions to put it to practical use. It's the perfect way to grab a wait-person's attention in a loud, crowded restaurant. I can enter a custom message to communicate with my daughter who is always listening to her iPod and can never hear me when I talk to her.
As great as it is, there is room for improvement. One thing I'd like to se in future versions is the ability to set your own text color, background color and font.
I recommend SkyText to anyone - you will find it more useful than you can imagine!

Easy to use
I think this is an easy to use scrolling-banner app. You can enter a new message (or choose a saved one) right from the first screen. It did take a little while to figure out how to save a new message as a preset (it's the "+" sign next to the text box). And starting the message-scrolling is as simple as tilting the phone on its side. This seems more intuitive than some of the other banner apps. I also like that it buzzes/vibrates when the message has finished, so it's easy to tell when to stop holding up the phone.
I like the icon, too. :)

Stupid
This app is so stupid! There is a much better app called name in lights that's easier to use and looks cooler. Go get that and don't waste your time with this crap.
This is super cool!
I love this app! It is really easy to use - I love the way it just takes a flick of the wrist! Ok - maybe it is a twist of the hand - but it works! And it is fun to keep track of what you are saying - I text a bunch and this follows a format I am use to. The letters are clear and easy to read- and the vibe at the end of the text let's me know I am done.
Yea, this one is good - easy to use - works well and fun. I checked out the website for the heynow - they know their stuff!

Totally awesome! How did I live without it.
Just what you expect from a great app - came up and worked just like described. The novelty factor of calling a waiter over using your iPhone is worth the price of admission. I'm going to be using this app *a lot*.
