User Reviews
Wish there were pre-saved lists I could tap on and other customization but it works great if you have the time to type something and need it BIG!
I work as a camera operator and when I don’t have a headset to speak with the control room I flash my Big Words in front of the lens for the director to see. Love it. Also useful during concerts to speak to your friends.
The free app “BIG” is much better than this one. You can change the font, text color and background color. I wish I would have known about the free app “BIG” before I made this purchase.
Love this app, use it all the time, glad it works on my Xs ... have a folder of ‘lock screen mantra’ screenshots - hey I’ll buy an in-app purchase for easy image export - but I digress - would tap the buy button on a square layout the moment you release it thanks
I use this app all the time. In crowded loud situations, in very quiet situations. I use it to announce to a crowd or pass a discrete note. I also had a patient with ALS who used it to type out messages to me. I love it. Has been on my home screen since my iPhone 3 and stayed there ever since.
This app does not work at all on my Apple Watch running version 4.3. All I see on the screen or three big white dots against a black background. Totally useless!
I have used this app anywhere is crowded and loud, like bars. Write your order and the bartender will be so surprised he might give you a free drink (happened to me several times, yes, really) I've loved this app since day one. Works as it's supposed to, needs nothing else. I do have a request tough... Can you guys update it to iPhone X please?
I wish I'd written it.
This app is extremely frustrating!! You can only add 2-3 words at a time and then it freezes or closes. So irritated that I even paid $1 for it 😡
Nice idea behind the app. I wish it had the ability to make lists and edit once you've entered your words
