Turn your iPhone or iPad into a bright LED (Light-Emitting Diode) sign. Type a message, pick a colour, and hold up a banner that people can read across a dark room - or switch to Eyes mode and stare back at them. EVERY SIGN YOU NEED - Scroll your message left, right, up or down, or hold it still - Any text colour and background, or a gradient that fades from one colour to another - Adjustable speed, size and glow, with square or round LED dots - 10 fonts, from clean and modern to hand-drawn - Effects: Blink, Pulse, Rainbow, and Wave, a rainbow that flows through the letters - Tap stars, hearts, arrows and emoji straight into your message - Mirror mode, so a sign reads correctly through a car window or a mirror - 12 one-tap templates: Birthday, Welcome, Sale, Party, Congrats, Go Team, Open, Pickup, Wedding, Graduation, Taxi and Yard Sale EYES MODE Turn the screen into a pair of glowing eyes that blink on their own and look around. - 21 styles: round, cat, sleepy, wide, wink, robot, heart and X eyes - An angry family of seven, from a mild scowl to a full glare - A Halloween set: Monster, Pumpkin, Skull, Spider and Zombie - Pick from a gallery of previews in your own colours, rather than from a list of names - Set each eye's width and height separately, wide and flat or tall and narrow - Movement presets: slow blink, fast blink, sleepy, twitchy, look around, or a dead stare FULL SCREEN Tap the banner and the whole screen becomes the sign. It runs at full brightness, stays awake while it is showing, and returns your brightness when you leave. Turn the device sideways for the biggest letters. SAVE AND SHARE Export your banner as an image or a short video, then send it in a message, post it, or keep it in Photos. APPLE WATCH Control the sign from your wrist. Start or stop the full-screen banner, switch the message and change the effect without touching your phone - useful when it is propped on a dashboard, a table or a shelf. GOOD FOR Concerts and festivals, airport and school pickups, weddings and birthdays, sports games, shop and market stalls, taxi and rideshare pickups, yard sales, Halloween windows, or just saying something across a noisy room. SAVED BANNERS Save the banners you use often and bring them back in a tap. FREE AND PRO Everything above is free, including Eyes mode and exporting. A one-time Pro purchase unlocks premium fonts, unlimited saved banners and exports without the small LED Banner mark. No subscription, and nothing expires. PRIVATE BY DESIGN No account, no sign-up and no data collection. Everything stays on your device, and the app works with no connection at all.
