About this app
Living under Heathrow's flight path? Some days the planes are directly overhead and relentless; other days they're landing from the opposite direction and you barely hear a thing. The difference comes down to one thing: wind direction, which decides which runway is in use. PlaneNoise turns that into a simple, at-a-glance forecast. WHAT IT DOES • Predicts whether Heathrow is running easterly (09) or westerly (27) operations, hour by hour, for the days ahead • Translates that into a plain "noisy or quiet" call for where you actually live • Shows a confidence level for each day so you know how firm the prediction is • Live "now" status so you can check the current situation at a glance BUILT FOR YOUR LOCATION Tell the app roughly where you are, and it works out which side of the runway you're on, so the noisy/quiet call matches your home rather than a generic average.

What you can learn from Plane Noise
Every shipping app on the App Store has gone through the same decisions you're working through right now: which screenshot goes first, what caption sits over it, which device frame to show, what color the background should be. The 8 screenshots above are Plane Noise's answers to those questions — they're public, they're real, and they made it through Apple's review.
What the numbers say: Plane Noise runs a mixed light-and-dark set where the background shifts from screenshot to screenshot (first shot #040404) — each image has to stand on its own, so the captions carry more of the story. The accent colour we picked up, #0C3C74, is the one to reuse for badges, arrows and highlighted words if you borrow this look. Hit Use this style to open the editor with these exact colours and drop your own screenshot in.
Notice the first screenshot in particular. It's the one users see in search results and on the product page, and it's where most apps spend their best caption and tightest design. Look at the proportion of background to phone, where the text sits, what one thing the image is trying to communicate.
