So Helpful

I have been using this app for over a year now and it got me off book for Henry IV part 1&2 as Prince Hal, Lady Northumberland, Glendower, AND Archbishop in 3 weeks.

I wish there was a way to organize the scripts into folders because I also use this for scene work in school and self tapes and with all the scenes getting assigned or sent, the scripts page is getting long. Other than that, the app is lovely.

An absolute godsend

Okay first things first: everyone is different, and this method of learning lines and getting โ€œoff bookโ€ wonโ€™t be the best solution for everyone. I HIGHLY recommend downloading the โ€œliteโ€ version first, or even just recording voice notes, to see how well recording/listening works for you before spending your money.

But IF this method DOES work well for you, then this app is more than worth the price. I now use it for every single show Iโ€™m in (most recently a two-hander where I ended up recording every single line in the script). Which means I spend most of my train rides muttering to myself like a madman these days but who cares.

The different playback options are great, figuring out how the different options work can be a bit confusing at first but I canโ€™t really think of how that could be improved, you just have to work with it and get to know it.

So yeah, highly recommended. Iโ€™m finally getting around to writing this review now because a new cast member just texted me to ask โ€œhey what was the name of that line learning app you recommended last yesterday?โ€

Does not work at all (August 2026)

App does not work at all. pdf/doc/etc import is completely nonfunctional, adding/changing/deleting lines is not intuitive, the tutorials are not helpful, and I have wasted entirely too much time on this app trying to get it to work. Really wish it did, since it seems like a great idea. I seem to remember using it at one point in the past with success, but now itโ€™s a waste of time and money. Wish I could get a refund for my 4 hours of trying and failing to get it to work.

Excellent quality non-subscription

Perfect app for learning lines. Thank you for not being a subscription service!

Efficient, simple, effective

I paid $4 for something I use every show as a regular actor. I just landed two featured roles in a row and had over 80 lines each role, so I needed to memorize during a full time school, part time work schedule. My commutes were the best times to just put on my headphones and listen to my lines. The versatility in allowing you to put gaps where your lines are is a super nice feature as well. Love, love, love!

FAQ

What does Line Learner do?

Line Learner is designed to help actors memorize their lines quickly and easily. It allows you to record scenes from plays, listen back to the full recording, and then practice your own lines with customizable gaps. You can also use a prompt button if you forget a line.

How can I practice my lines with Line Learner?

You can practice your lines by selecting to leave gaps in the recording for you to speak your part aloud. The app provides a prompt button to remind you of your line if you forget. You have the option to repeat individual scenes or the entire play.

Can I use Line Learner to rehearse with others?

Yes, you can record your script and share it with others. They can then record their lines and share them back, enabling you to rehearse together even when you are apart. This feature facilitates remote collaboration for performances.

What file formats can I load into Line Learner?

The app allows you to load your script in either PDF or Word format. This enables you to display your script directly within the app as you record your lines, streamlining the learning process.

Can I adjust the voices of other characters?

After recording your lines, you can alter the pitch of the other characters' voices. This feature helps you to more easily distinguish their lines from your own, making practice more effective.
