## What it is
An Objective-C library for iOS that displays text-based notifications sliding over the status bar, with customizable colors, durations, and tap behavior. It supports both automatic timed display and manual show/dismiss control.

## Use cases
- show a brief message banner at the top of an iOS app
- display in-app status updates without alert dialogs
- create customizable status bar notifications with custom colors
- show notifications that respond to user taps
- display transient messages for a fixed duration on iPhone or iPad

## When to choose
- you maintain a legacy Objective-C iOS app needing lightweight status bar notifications
- you want simple, customizable top-of-screen text notifications without heavy dependencies
- you need manual control over when notifications appear and disappear

## When to avoid
- you are starting a new Swift-first iOS project with modern UI frameworks
- you need rich notification content like images or actions
- you target iOS versions or UI paradigms beyond what this archived-style library supports
