Launch weekend price: $9 until Sunday night (regular price $12). Made by Erni Hdz. Questions or bugs: aedlgdhdz@gmail.com
Your headline stays real, selectable text (add your H1 as a normal Framer layer on top), so Google and screen readers read it. Motion is Autoplay by default, so touch devices get the effect without a cursor. "Auto" is a style, not a motion mode.
