### 1/5 — Maxi bug

*2025-11-23*

Je me demande si j’ai déjà vu autant de bug par fonctions

### 5/5 — Johnny riley

*2024-03-10*

Have downloaded a second prompter to a 2nd i pad but one doesnt transfer all my library to the other! What can be done please?

### 2/5 — Good features but stutters remote

*2022-11-28*

I love the features in this app but using another iPad as a remote is a stutter experience. When I first started using this, years ago, I could smooth scroll to keep pace with talent. Now the remote scrolling is jittery. I have to jump scroll which is challenging for talent.

### 1/5 — Can’t use on iPad if bought on iPhone

*2020-05-31*

Bought on my iPhone to use on my iPad, but doesn’t allow me to download on my iPad without purchasing again. Very poor. Requesting a refund from Apple.

### 1/5 — No Bluetooth Support

*2019-12-13*

App has not been updated to allow Bluetooth support. As such, you cannot use most remotes.

### 5/5 — Good app. But plesae HEAR ME OUT I ASK AGAIN

*2019-12-07, version 7.2.6*

Please HEAR ME OUT I ASK AGAIN.
Hi I'm a professional singer, I use your app on stage for my performances.
It works really well.
Although I just wished there were other options.
2 suggestions :
1- the possibility in the files menu, to make a specific order for the files, not only alphabetical.
2- the last thing would be the greatest, but maybe not realistic.
It would be to find a way to have the text scrolling with the music, and syncing with a text automatically. Or maybe at least adding a simple metronome with a tap mode, just to type in a box on the screen to give a tempo.
All these improvements could be great assets.
Hoping those things could become a reality thanks in advance.

### 1/5 — App is not working properly - stop using it !

*2019-08-21, version 7.2.3*

I just downloaded the app and paid for it but there are many things that are not working like downlading files in the app. I will ask to get refunded !

### 5/5 — Worked very well

*2018-03-28*

I just completed my first video using this app with the iPhone remote app. The app is not as polished as some, but the developer has frequent updates which demonstrates their commitment to this app. I recommend it without reservations.

### 2/5 — Crashes a lot with remote

*2017-09-01, version 7.1.1*

I really loved this app in combination with prompter pal, however it is now very unstable with a IPad 2 - and IPhone 4s combination. It crashes when syncing files and screen display appears in different formatting. Please fix this an you will 5 stars again. Thank you.

### 3/5 — Bedienung sperrig

*2017-01-03, version 6.1.4*

Ich nutze das Programm nun schon über ein Jahr und man kann tatsächlich damit Videos drehen. Ich hab mir aus einem Karton und einer Glasscheibe einen Teleprompter gebastelt und lese mit diesen Programm den Text ab. Es funktioniert!
Allerdings ist die Bedienung immer wieder nervig. 
1. Man muss seine Einstellungen immer wieder von neuem vornehmen.
2. Die richtige Scrollgeschwindigkeit zu finden ist immer wieder nervig und langwirig
3. Hintergrundfarbe und Vordergrundfarbe tauschen klappt nicht auf anhieb (swap)
4. Warum ist nicht Weisse Schrift auf weisse Farbe voreingestellt?

Vlt sollten die Programmierer mal die Leute fragen, die das Programm oft nutzen (-:

Wenn allerdings alle Einstellungen vorgenommen sind, macht die Verwendung des Programmes und das Ergebnis viel Spaß
