Turn your screen into a large, readable sign. Type a message, finish editing, and Giant Text scales the letters to fit the display.

Optional Bloom, Jitter and Ripple animations add movement; Reduce Motion keeps the text still. Use it for a meeting point, a quick reminder, or a message across a noisy room. Your current text and preferences are saved on the device. No developer account, advertising or purchase is required.
