Prepare the phone before you hold it up
Increase brightness, lock the orientation you want, and enable a focus mode so a notification does not cover the message. Clean the screen if reflections make the letters harder to see.
Landscape orientation gives most short phrases more horizontal space. Portrait can be better for one word, a number, or a message viewed by someone standing close.
Write for a moving reader
Assume the other person will only look for a second. Lead with the useful word: WAIT, EXIT, TAXI, HELP, WELCOME, or the person’s name.
Avoid decorative punctuation and long introductions. Large text is not a document; it is a visual signal.
- Use 1–5 words
- Prefer familiar wording
- Keep one clear action
Move from a quick sign to a reusable display
The browser tool is ideal for an immediate one-off message. A dedicated app becomes useful when you repeat the same signs, need scrolling text, want visual effects, or work in places with unreliable connectivity.
LED Banner is the companion iPhone and iPad app made by the same team. It adds saved messages, more display styles, and a focused full-screen workflow.
TAKE THE MESSAGE WITH YOU
