App sux when it comes to importing scripts
Tried importing multiple times, multiples ways after reading FAQ explanation of how it is supposed to be done. Failed. God forbid coding the app to directly access/open the file directly……or worse, have a spot to drag and drop the file for importing. <sarc>

Great potential, lacking execution
This app has the potential to be a godsend when you can’t find a reader, but the bugs it currently has make it at best infuriating, and at worst unusable. It will randomly decide it’s gonna ignore all cue words anywhere in the script (frustrating, especially while in a long scene), the first reader line echos very loudly in playback like 70% of the time (borderline unusable), and will sometimes bug an entire script so hard it will start reading a line and then skip half the script and start playing a line 10 lines ahead of where you are every time(unusable); changing cue words, manually reentering lines, deleting and reentering lines, nothing works. The script is permanently bugged, and if you’re importing it, it’s bugged forever. I suspect it’s something with the AI voice as recording the lines yourself and keeping it in your own voice seems to solve the problem. It still needs a video playback in the app so you don’t have to wait for an export to see it, and the AI voices, while novel, are mostly unhelpful as readers as they have a monotone, obviously AI delivery. As it stands, stay on the free version.

Response from developer
Hey there, Thank you for your review - it's super helpful. We are always trying to make Counterpart better, especially for taping. Would you mind telling us which scripts these issues happen on? We want to see what specifically is going on. Please reach out to us at hello@counterpart.actor We really look forward to hearing from you!
Game Changer!!
I absolutely LOVE this app. It’s more efficient and functions better than any other tool for the same function. Highly recommend for actors, this is a must
10/10
Always use this when I go on walks to memorize my audition scenes.
Confusing and doesn’t really work
There is not much to it. Even with minimal functions it’s overly complicated. When trying to upload scrips it would miss pages at a time. There are a lot better options out there
