Santa Monica, CA (PRWEB) March 20, 2017 -- Transcendent Designs, creators of Superscreen, just launched their first Kickstarter crowdfunding campaign to raise $50,000 to bring the Superscreen, world’s first portable touch screen for your smartphone, to market. With 60,000 people on the pre-launch wait list, pledgers had more than doubled Superscreen’s funding goal in just over an hour, with more than $100,000 committed.

“The Superscreen could be to tablets what the invention of the smartphone was for MP3 players,” says tech influencer, Adryenn Ashley. “It has the potential to render them obsolete.”

The Superscreen provides full control of smartphones on a 4x larger and better, full HD 10.1″ display. Superscreen connects directly to a user’s phone via a secure, private connection - no file transfers, no clouds, no wires, no contracts.

The Superscreen has already garnered press in the HuffingtonPost, tech.co, ZDnet and on Jon Rettinger’s TechnoBuffalo.

Forget about syncing cloud storage over Wi-Fi. Take a picture on your camping trip with your iPhone 7 camera, then immediately pull out your Superscreen to edit the photo on a larger HD display - all without any syncing, because the image never left your phone.

How it works in 3 easy steps:

1. Users download the iOS or Android apps on their smartphone
2. They sync it to the Superscreen via a secure wireless connection
3. With no delay, Superscreen mirrors what they see on their screen, on a 4x bigger display
