NinjaTilt
NinjaTilt is a minimal gesture-based app for swift, discreet messaging without speaking.

How It Works
Double-tap anywhere on the screen to instantly clear all text and start fresh. This gesture is designed for speed—no confirmation needed, no menus to navigate. Just tap twice and you're ready for your next message.
Swipe left or right anywhere on the screen to toggle between light and dark themes. The app remembers your preference, so it stays consistent every time you open it. Perfect for adapting to different lighting conditions.
While typing with the keyboard visible, swipe up from the bottom of the screen to reveal your saved NinjaTaps. Tap any message to instantly insert it. Swipe down to dismiss the panel. It's a fast way to communicate things you say repeatedly.
Type the message you want to save, then swipe up to open NinjaTaps and press and hold (1 second) on any button to replace it with your new text. You'll feel a haptic vibration confirming the save.
Reveal Mode flips your screen 180° so someone facing you can read your message right-side up. To activate it, tilt your phone forward (away from you). The screen automatically rotates and your text appears perfectly readable for the person across from you. Tilt back to normal position to return to editing mode.
Hidden NinjaTilt lets you save one message that appears instantly when you tilt forward with a blank screen. Type your message, swipe up twice to access Hidden NinjaTilt, then long-press the button to save it. Toggle it ON or OFF by tapping the button. When enabled, tilting forward with an empty screen reveals your saved message—perfect for repeated phrases like "Stand by" or "One moment."
No. NinjaTilt stores nothing beyond your device. Your text, NinjaTaps, and theme preference stay local—never synced, never sent, never saved to any server. When you close the app, your text is cleared. Your privacy is complete.
