## What is Audition Buddy?

Audition Buddy reads every other role aloud, so you can self-tape any script, at any hour, without a reader.

It is eleven at night, the sides came through at six, and the tape is due in the morning. Nobody is free to read with you.

Audition Buddy is the scene partner who always is.

Upload the script. Audition Buddy reads it, finds the scenes, and works out who is in them. Choose the character you are playing. Every other role gets a voice, and you choose how each one sounds — mood, energy, and which voice reads it — because a reader who rushes you is worse than no reader at all.

Then tape it. Your lines scroll on screen while the camera stays on your face, so your eyes stay on the lens instead of a page just out of frame. Pick the pace before you start and it holds it: slow to find the scene, natural to run it, brisk when you already know it cold.

Watch the take back straight away. Keep it, retake it, or record five more. Every take is saved under its script, scene and character, so the one you want at four in the morning is the one you can actually find. Download it in full quality or send it straight to your agent.

Record your slate once — name, height, location, agent — and it is there for every submission after that.

When you're not taping, the Search tab carries a reading list on auditioning, self-taping and the craft — pulled from working actors' own sites, updated through the day.

WHAT YOU GET FREE

Your first script is free, and it stays free: unlimited takes, unlimited retakes, and AI co-actors reading every other role, for as long as you keep it. Uploading, reading and organising scripts are free forever, on every script.

AUDITION BUDDY PRO

Pro unlocks recording on every script you upload, not just your first:

• Record every script, not just your first • AI co-actors read every other role aloud • Unlimited takes, downloaded and shared in full quality

Pro is a monthly subscription and renews until you cancel. Cancel any time from your Apple Account settings.

BUILT TO BE PRIVATE

No trackers, no analytics SDKs, no advertising. Your scripts and your takes are files on your phone. An account exists so you can restore them later and so the co-actor voices can run — nothing more. You can delete your account, and everything held for it, from inside the app.

Made for actors who tape their own auditions.

## Version history (last 5 releases)

### 1.2.0 — 2026-10-01

Set a tape due date from Scene Setup's calendar button; the app then asks for notification permission for the reminders.
The Next Up widget is in the widget gallery.

### 1.1.3 — 2026-09-28

Your slate now carries your details. Add your height, weight, agent, languages and skills to your profile, and they're typed onto the first five seconds of your slate. Share it or save it to Photos straight from the slate.

Tap a quote to turn it into a card you can share. Today's quote now leads the Quotes screen.

Take thumbnails show the take's first frame.

Scanned scripts in Chinese read correctly, and search finds "café" when you type "cafe".

Smoother motion throughout, with a tap you can feel when you record, stop and keep a take.

### 1.1.2 — 2026-09-25

Buttons now answer your finger — press one and it lifts and lights up, the way iOS's own buttons do.

Takes open with a smooth zoom from the still into full screen, and the still fills its frame, no black bars.

Home welcomes you back by name.

Titles sit level with the buttons beside them.

### 1.1.1 — 2026-09-24

App optimization and bug fixes.

### 1.1.0 — 2026-09-20

A reading list, on the Search tab. Writing about the craft — auditioning, self-taping, getting seen — from publications that cover it, updated through the day. Tap anything to read it without leaving the app.

Search now opens on what you were last working on, so a script or take you had open is one tap away rather than a search away.

• Takes in search results show their own first frame
• The search field no longer hides itself
• Recent searches have been removed, and the terms behind them deleted from your phone
