About
Speak freely. Let your ear do the remembering.
EarCue is a voice recorder built for ear prompting: you listen to a recording of your own speech through one earbud and repeat it a few words behind. Broadcast reporters, TV hosts, actors and keynote speakers use the technique to deliver their words naturally while keeping eye contact with the audience, with no notes or teleprompter in sight.
HOW IT WORKS
1. Record your speech in a steady, neutral voice, a little slower than normal.
2. Add notes and slide cues wherever you want a reminder or a sound.
3. Put one wireless earbud in and open Presentation Mode.
4. Press Play, repeat what you hear, and bring it to life with inflection, gestures and movement.
FEATURES
• Simple recording: pause and resume, watch a live level meter, and flag important moments as you speak.
• Notes and cue sounds: pin a note to any moment and choose a chime, bell or beep that plays when playback reaches it, or record your own sound. Perfect for changing slides right on time.
• Presentation Mode: show your notes as large cue cards that advance in step with playback.
• Pace meter: check your speaking pace against a target number of words per minute.
• On-device transcription: follow a word-by-word transcript that scrolls with playback, and tap any word to jump to it. Transcription runs entirely on your iPhone and works offline.
• Playback control: a seek bar with note markers, 10-second skip, and speeds from 0.75x to 2x.
• Folders to keep speeches organized, and light and dark appearance.
• Optional iCloud Backup to keep your recordings safe and restore them on a new iPhone.
