User Reviews

The app is praised for its simple, easy-to-use banner scrolling with minimal distractions and strong customization (font, color, size, and speed), and for being a practical way to communicate brief notes to other drivers. It’s also valued for its straightforward, no-frills design and quick messaging capability. However, reviewers repeatedly report core drawbacks: no save/store feature requiring retyping, input length limits and lack of paste support (often only one note), occasional scrolling glitches that close or reset the banner, and orientation/rotation issues on iPad/AppleTV. Overall it’s good for quick, short messages, but persistence and input options need improvement.
Pros
  • Simple and easy-to-use interface.
  • Highly customizable (font, color, size, speed) with multiple font options.
  • Useful for quick, driver-to-driver messages and silent alerts.
  • Minimal distractions; lightweight banner app with no ads.
  • Performs the core function reliably as a simple scrolling banner.
Cons
  • Cannot save or store messages; retyping required.
  • Input limitations: no paragraph input, no paste, only one note, short length.
  • Orientation/rotation/display issues on iPad/AppleTV; sideways text or need to lock rotation.
  • Scrolling occasionally resets or closes the app after use; reliability issues.
  • Lacks live speed preview and other features; basic compared to paid app.

I was expecting something like a teleprompter.

This is a great way to communicate with other drivers. I like that it doesn’t try to imitate LED display fonts like similar apps. Scrolling is smooth. My one, but most important, dislike is that the text field is blank each time the app is opened. Most often I’m trying to say “Lights are off.” But I’m not going to try to type or voice-to-text while driving. Similar apps default to having the last last message ready to scroll.

Needs to support paragraph-length input and standard Paste function into the text window.
