Leave a Review Teleprompter
Awesome. Simple. No frills- and no tricks
I needed to get some talking head, and wasn’t very thrilled about the experience because it had to be my talking head. Screwed the Handicam onto the tripod, taped the iPad with TelePrompTer Lite running, below it and done.
Spent a few minutes ahead of time tweaking the text, (learned I don’t talk how I write) - and practicing it, I found I needed to adjust the speed in TelePrompTer Lite - very easy.
Then because I needed 10 seconds between turning the camera on, walking out in front of it, standing on the mark I put on the floor, and trying to keep a straight face, I just hit returns ahead of the text so it created a delay.
That was good because you get a few seconds composure time and with practice you’re actually letting the text scroll up until you’re ready.
TelePrompTer Lite helped me get out of the Discomfort zone, and I’m feeling OK about having to do it again.
I tried a couple of other Free TelePrompTer Apps before TelePrompTer Lite but got bogged down in not being to store separate short scripts without upgrading.
Can beat simple& straightforward when only half of you wants to get out of your comfort zone in the first place!!Show lessfishmouth500
Perfect!
This app is perfect for me. I use it to display song words on a large flat screen TV in the care home where I go to sing for the residents. Sometimes it’s easier to control the scroll manually, particularly if the chorus is repeated.
I would like to be able to import photos though. I can’t seem to do this. I have tried copying a photo into a Word document to import, but it doesn’t seem to work.
Used the lite version first and now have purchased the premium version.Show lessJanRed2
Almost too good for a free app
Brilliant app, used it for my Father of the Bride speech and was able to fine tune the timing so I didn’t ramble on too long, and made giving the speech very easy. I was surprised that this Lite version had so many features that I would have expected to pay for. All in all a very good app which I have already recommend to others.Show lessChris '
Lyric notes
This is a pretty rad app and I am using the free version! I use this on my iPad mini on a small music stand that attaches to my mic stand. I have memory issues and even though I write my lyrics I often can’t remember a song all the way through. I also get to make notes on song dynamics that I can refer to as I am practicing or performing. I can choose from basic font styles, sizes and functions and the words can stay static and be manually scrolled or I can set the pace for it to auto-scroll. It’s exactly what I needed!Show lessRobynJoy76
Best free teleprompter app
Well, this is my second teleprompter app I tried and this one is much more intuitive so easier to just get started without.
Features I like (compared to other lite/free app): Easy to create a new script. Easier UI to touch/place cursor for editing. Saving is much easier/quicker because when you click “Save”, the Save As... window pops up.
I’ve only tried 2 different apps but this one does exactly what I need it to do. I have a bluetooth keyboard and an iPad and it’s great - so I have no need to search around for any more.Show lessMister Lee
Import/edit fails
This looked good, exactly what I need as an actor/presenter for home auditions.
Sadly, this app does not support the import of text in bold/italics. When a script has directions and lines to be delivered to camera, they need to be differentiated and easily identifiable for a smooth and fluid read.
So when Word and PDF docs with bold and italics are imported to this app and it changes the whole document to the same typeface, the app becomes useless.
It takes long enough to go through it all selecting and editing line by line, but when this app jumps to the bottom of the document after each change, it becomes far too infuriating to bother with.
The actual teleprompter element may work very well. I never got to the point of actually being able to use it thanks to these major issues in getting a script ready to roll.Show lessHardcastle414
Developer Response
Hi peterpresenter. You'll be happy to know that the version 3 update now allows you to import documents and retain their original formatting just like you describe. 🙂 I assume you are be referring to Teleprompter Premium since you're talking about importing files.Lite version is perfect
I'm just have occasional need for a teleprompter, and the lite version meets my needs perfectly. I really don't get what's with the negative reviews because for me on my iPad Pro it works exactly right every time without fail. I especially like the ease of text editing without having to go to another app, I love the fine degree of easy control over scrolling speed, and I really appreciate that I can keep multiple scripts listed in the app. Sure, the developer wants people to buy the premium version, but personally I can't see the need for it.Show lessEdzlinx
Saved me from A LOT of Frustration
I had to deliver a video presentation and I could not memorize the script. I was frustrated beyond belief. I couldn't figure out how to deliver the presentation without all the annoying hmmm and ahhs...and pauses. I didn't even know this app existed and found it by accident and voila!....my life was simplified immeasurably. I did my presentation, it was flawless thanks to the app and I passed my class and earned my MBA....whoo hoo....thanks Teleprompter Lite.....awesome app....easy to use and customer support was great.Show lessRoyce2152

Best of 5 I tried!
I tried five teleprompter options between a desktop, laptop, and the iPad. So far this one is the easiest to use, and the first one I've been able to make fast progress when editing the script between takes. When I am done with this round of mini scripts, this is the tool that will get upgraded. Much thanx!!!Show less76543297532
