Random Note: Ransom-Note Style Messages You've seen it in the movies: the famous "ransom note." A plain sheet of paper covered in letters cut out of magazines, each one a different font, color and size. Want to make one yourself without cutting out every letter by hand? Random Note does it for you. Type your text and watch it turn into a ransom-note collage as you type. HOW IT WORKS • Type your message. Each letter becomes its own piece of torn paper with a random font, color, shape and tilt. • Tap Shuffle to give every letter a new look. • Tap Share to send your note as an image. MAKE IT YOUR OWN • Random or Uniform style. Keep the chaos, or pick one font weight, design, width and color for a cleaner look. • 14 tile colors to choose from. • Backgrounds: white, ruled paper, dark, or a colored tint. • Letter size from small to poster-sized. • Control the layout. Commas, periods and line breaks decide where new lines start. • Add your own signature. Every note gets a small © stamp with the name of your choice. SAVE AND SHARE • Save your favorite notes to History and open them again later, exactly as they looked. • Reopen a saved note to make a new version without losing the original. • Share to Photos, Messages, AirDrop, Instagram, or any app on your device.
