About Blurb

Tap the screen and enter a quick message to display on your screen in huge red font, so that you can display it to someone else. Your phone will turn into a scrolling signboard if the message is longer. Better than any conventional marquee scrolling display apps.

This is for those awkward moments when someone can't hear you or when it's not convenient to talk. Perfect for parties, classes, conferences. Great for Airport pickups as well if you are a Taxi Driver. Display football scores as well as messages to the TV cameras from the stadiums. Can be used for prompting speakers when they have 10 mins left to talk only. Also very useful as a communication aid for those who are hard of hearing. The scrolling text is easily readable from a few meters away if using a large screen phone.

Keep a shortcut to the Blurb application on your Android home screen as you will need quick and easy access to it for those awkward moments.

Features include:

This app looks very useful and well presented. It installed OK and seemed to be fine. It allows a message to be input but crashes every time when told to display the message on screen. It is a shame because it looks very good. :(

Q70%
by Q####:

Menu does phones setting choice so if it's on portrait then the screen goes from landscape to portrait so we have to keep rotating the phone to accommodate apps shortcomings. Add portrait or follow system settings.

Great app. Simple to use. Pls add text colour selection.

Y70%
by Y####:

This app has a lot of potential, but with a few tweaks it could be a must have app. Will give a five star rating if/when the following suggestions are added : Enhanced options/settings to allow you to control the size of the font and scrolling options. Quick words/common phrases that can be selected from a menu. Change font type/colour. Good job on the app so far, but why not make it great ?

C70%
by C####:

It is definitely on the right track. I haven't found another app designed specifically for such purposes, but it needs more options. Needs text size option. Needs scrolling direction option. Needs scrolling speed option. Needs color options. Needs to keep current text available in case message just needs minor editing. Thanks dev, but please give us more.

Now works better on my HTC wildfire and let's me share texts straight into blurb rather than having to copy and paste.

C70%
by C####:

Great app needs tweaking to stop words breaking up, possibly get it adjust automatically depending on size of screen. Great app but should be able to adjust size automatically depending on size of screen without breaking up words Master Abs
