Face ID / Touch ID authentication before every display β€” nothing shows by accident. -- color display -- slide across the full color spectrum to pick your color. preview updates live. lift your finger to confirm, authenticate to display. your message β€” if you have one β€” renders automatically in contrast-optimized text over whatever color you chose. -- strobe -- neon colors cycle across your screen in rapid succession. adjustable speed β€” hold the strobe button to open settings, slide to dial it in from a slow pulse to a full meltdown. get attention from across any room. -- preset messages -- eight messages preloaded: meet me outside. hey. follow me. 5 min. be right back. wait. sos. come here. hold the beacon logo to edit them β€” replace, rewrite, or add up to ten total. yours when you need them, gone from the device when you don't. -- pulse -- a breathing brightness effect that applies to any display mode. subtle. makes any signal feel alive. -- the rest -- quad-tap the display to exit. brightness maxes automatically. screen stays awake while displaying. locks to landscape for distance reading. -- privacy -- zero data collected. the only permission beacon asks for is Face ID / Touch ID authentication. messages live in memory and disappear when you close the app. nothing stored, nothing sent, nothing shared.
