This is a major problem. It’s a guessing game. If you plan on double spacing you can only hope the curser is where it should be. If you single space and hit enter to go to the next line you have to hit it twice and the curser still isn’t going to show up for you to know if it even went to the next line to start another sentence. If they can’t get the simple version to work, why would you by the pro version? The concept is great but it has to work. It’s kind of like an airplane design made of stone. ### 3/5 — No encouragement to upgrade *2021-06-17, version 2.0.4* I like this app and paid £7.99 to upgrade to pro. I was then offered an upgrade to voicepromter for £19.99. This is the price I would have paid if I had bought this app first so this is a disincentive to upgrading. Charging £12 would be fair. ### 1/5 — Doesn’t Work *2020-12-18, version 2.0.4* I’m not sure what I am doing wrong but every time I save a script, it disappears. When I open the ap, I can see my untitled scripts but as soon as I select one, I get a blank screen. Sorry but I won’t purchase the Pro version if I can’t even get it to save a script and play it back. ### 1/5 — Not as advertised. *2020-08-22, version 2.0.4* This does not work as a teleprompter without paying for the upgrade ### 1/5 — You have to pay for mirror *2020-08-12* Very bad,! Not free at all **Developer response:** Some professional features require a small upgrade fee. Professionals are happy to pay for this so that’s not a typical reason to rate one star. ### 4/5 — Comentário *2020-08-03* Tem que pagar para funcionar ### 1/5 — Kein Datenimport zum Testen *2020-07-25, version 2.0.4* Ich wollte die App testen, ob auch alle Funktionen funktionieren, nur leider muss man dann sofort kaufen. Nicht zu empfehlen, gleich wieder gelöscht!!! ### 2/5 — Nope. *2020-07-06* I tried this again. Can’t get in without registering and getting a key. Fail. Move on. I need this for singing. Which is generally slower than talking. The scroll speed doesn't work if you set it below six, so it's just a little too fast. Can't find a way to name each "script" (song, in my case). The default is "Untitled" so you'll end up with lots of untitled scripts. You have to get a key emailed to you to use it, and it only works in landscape mode, which contributes to the words going by a little too fast on the slowest setting. For a speech prompter it's probably not bad. Scrolling is smooth and text is clear to read, plus font and size can be adjusted. It does not have ads, which is nice. ### 1/5 — parasız versiyonu boş *2020-06-14, version 2.0.4* parasız versiyonu boş ayna özelliğini test edemiyorsun ### 1/5 — Lixo *2020-06-08* Só aceita .txt e NÃO funciona! Não comprem!!!!! ### 1/5 — Doesn’t open *2020-06-06* Asks for a code, can’t use it without one, even though I installed from the App Store. ## Most critical reviews (10 lowest-rated) ### 1/5 — Immediately stopped working *2026-06-06* I would love this app and give great reviews if it would start working again. The new “bug fixes” have ruined a good app. Almost impossible to add a new script and it won’t save any changes to existing scripts - not to mention that the “update” deleted my entire library of scripts. Please either roll back the version or create a new one that actually works ### 1/5 — Can’t Edit Text *2026-06-02, version 2.1.3* Once you enter text into your script, you can Save any edits. ### 1/5 — Not good *2026-05-31* They told me to pay one time payment but this app is not working properly even after payment .still it is asking for payment . ### 1/5 — Lost money *2023-08-21* The application is not providing any kind of remote controls. I know options like they’re saying in.. please don’t buy. ### 1/5 — Worst teleprompter IMHO *2023-04-08, version 2.0.4* I absolutely do not recommend it. Forces me to buy it all the time and not allowing me to use most features... ### 1/5 — be warned *2022-07-16* There is a product number that’s needed and according to the app you have to submit your email. You will not get a product number but a thank you and encouraging you to get the pro version. Without the product number the app doesn’t work. Someone is getting paid for the emails. ### 1/5 — Does not work: asks for a number *2022-05-05, version 2.0.4* Seems to be a personal detail grabber app ### 1/5 — Uninstall it's useless *2021-10-07, version 2.0.4* How these Apps stay available must mean that no one is really checking. More useless you will not find! You cannot even load your own content because the Premium purchase blocks everything! ### 1/5 — Typical bait and switch… *2021-10-05, version 2.0.4* “Sure… download our cool teleprompter app. Oh… what’s that? You want to actually use it as a teleprompter?! Oh, you’ll have to upgrade to premium for that”. I got a better idea… Deleted! ### 1/5 — Don’t bother unless you’re ready to pay! *2020-12-29* You can’t even do the most basic things without paying for the Pro version. Come on, can’t even name your scripts. Can’t even paste???? I feel robbed even though it was a free download for completely wasting time and effort. You can’t even do anything unless you send them your name and email address to get a key to open it! Can’t believe this is even allowed here as it’s completely disabled w/o paying. ## Most praised reviews (10 highest-rated) ### 5/5 — Great *2025-01-07, version 2.1* It is perfect, exactly for the intended purpose!! I love it and is great for speeches and lectures in social media!! ### 5/5 — Funciona genial *2024-04-28, version 2.1* Fácil de usar y muy intuitiva.

I can write my script, adjust the speed it scrolls by, and I can appear to really know what I am talking about! ### 5/5 — Easy peasy! *2020-06-22, version 2.0.4* So easy to use! If you need a simple TelePrompTer, this one is for you!! And it’s free... ### 5/5 — Excelente *2020-04-20, version 2.0.4* Muy fácil de usar ### 5/5 — Muy buena *2020-04-10, version 2.0.4* Muy buena y muy fácil de usar ### 5/5 — Exactly What I Needed! *2020-04-10* I have a military background in television filming, and teleprompters were crucial in the creation of most of our projects at the Pentagon. Now that I have this app on my iPad, I have the ability to film studio-quality campaign speeches for my election, right from my home, during this Wuhan pandemic.
