       <p>You've invested hundreds of hours crafting your iOS app to make it perfect in every way. Don't make a crucial mistake with the best marketing tool you have, your screenshots.</p>
       <p>Status Magic is an application for adding perfect status bars to your iOS App Store screenshots. Import screenshots from your iOS device and Status Magic will either overlay a clean status bar on top or allow you to easily remove the status bar all together.</p>
       <p>Your app should be the centre of attention on your screenshots, not the status bar. You should make sure the status bars are free of any distractions which means no carrier text, no alarms, no in-progress spinner and a fully charged battery. Also add extra polish by matching the iconic time '9:41 AM' that Apple uses in all their iOS promotional material.</p>
