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>
Do not wast your time.

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
Very user friendly
It is extremely easy to navigate and use.
Great app
The best working app
Easy to use
Memorizing my lines for GTA VI became so much easier with this app - highly recommend!
great app
really easy to navigate and a great multi-use tool for learning lines and taping! i really like being able to send to my friend so their voice can be my reader
Masterpiece
The app is super intuitive and easy to use. It actually helps so much in terms of auditions and memorizing!!!
Changes the game for actors
Very seamless to navigate as a user and engaging to rehearse with as an actor. I’ve found, as an actor, that it’s easy to put off learning your lines sometimes and Counterpart erases that. Gone is the excuse of not having a scene partner. You upload your material into the app and you’re ready to go. It helps me to stay accountable and it allows me to enjoy the “tedious” work. I would 100% recommend this app to anyone looking actor or ANYONE trying to memorize something important.

Booked on first use!
Literally the first time I used this app I booked the role! I had a live audition and felt really confident about the character, but couldn’t remember the lines for the life of me. I ended up using Counterpart right before my audition and now I’m recurring on a huge show!
Can’t Sign In
I put in my phone number and it would not send me a verification code so I could not use the app at all.

Hey there, Thank you for your feedback. We use an external service to authenticate phone numbers - They briefly faced a large outage in certain regions in the US. The login is currently back up and running. Please get in touch with hello@counterpart.actor and we will do our best to make it right. So sorry for the inconvenience.
Excellent Idea!
Best line learner app on the market. Easy to use and very cost effective!
I LOVE THIS APP!
I’ve used this app a few times since downloading and have felt so much better self-taping, and especially for doing in-person auditions and callbacks. Since I live in NYC I really like using the quiet flashcards as well to practice on the train. I love being able to sen to a friend so I can use one of my actor friends for rehearsal without having to take up too much of their time!! I really reccomend this app!!!
