ShortLook
Notifications at a glance.
ShortLook displays on your locked iPhone as you receive a notification using it's beautiful full screen design, allowing for readability from a distance. Made to be as unobtrusive as possible, it dismisses as soon as you tap the screen or Raise to Wake. Its configurable UI and behaviours ensure it works how you want it.

Ultrasound
The volume HUD you deserve.
From iOS 7 to 12, the volume HUD left much to be desired. Blocking a large portion of the screen when shown, requiring you to use the buttons to quickly adjust, and taking long to dismiss, it is one of the most common but worst thought-out parts of iOS. But not with Ultrasound.
