I built a privacy-focused LED Banner app for events because the others were too clunky.
Hi Indie Hackers! đź‘‹
I’m the maker behind LiveMarquee, and I wanted to share my latest iOS utility app with you all.
The Problem:
I’ve often needed a way to display scrolling text on my phone—whether it's holding up a sign at a concert, picking someone up at the airport, or just using it as digital signage for a desk setup. I found that many existing apps were either filled with intrusive ads, required weird permissions, or just looked outdated.
The Solution:
I built LiveMarquee to be the cleanest, easiest-to-use scrolling text app. It turns your iPhone or iPad into a dynamic LED banner in seconds.
Key Features:
🎨 Full Customization: Control fonts, colors, speed, and animation effects easily.
📸 Moments Capture: Unlike standard banner apps, I added a camera feature so you can capture photos while using the app, helping you save memories of the events where you use the signs.
đź”’ Privacy First: As with my other apps (BucketPal, 3ThingsPal), privacy is a priority. All data and photos are stored locally on your device. No cloud sync, no data mining.
🌍 Multi-Language Support: Ready for global users.
The Business Model:
The app is free to download with basic features. There is a Premium tier for advanced themes and customization options.
I'd love your feedback:
Is the UI intuitive for a "pick up and go" scenario?
For those who use digital signage apps, what feature is usually missing?
