Most teleprompter apps feel like they were designed by a billing department. The Last Teleprompter is different. A clean, fast, no-nonsense teleprompter for iPhone that helps you record better videos — no subscriptions, accounts, ads, credits, or monthly nonsense. Buy it once. Own it. Record your take. Move on with your life. VOICE FOLLOW SCROLLING The Last Teleprompter follows your voice while you read, so the script adapts to your actual pace instead of forcing you to chase a fixed scroll speed. Slow down. Speed up. Pause for a beat. Pick it back up. The teleprompter follows along. It runs on-device — nothing is sent to a server just to move text. Listens locally and keeps the words where you need them. Plus classic fixed-speed scrolling for when you want manual control. A REAL SCRIPT LIBRARY Every script is saved automatically — build a library, not one disposable note. Search it, favorite the ones you use most, sort and duplicate them, or share a script as text. RUN THE TAKE FROM YOUR WRIST Got an Apple Watch? Put your phone on a tripod and step back. Start, pause, and stop from your wrist, flip the camera, mirror the text, switch modes, and nudge the script if you drift. In Fixed Speed, spin the Digital Crown to dial in the scroll speed — with a live timer on the watch. BUILT FOR RECORDING, NOT FIDDLING Write or paste your script, hit record, and read naturally over the front or back camera. The text stays big and legible over real footage, with a reading-line indicator so you stay locked in without looking like you're reading. Set up the perfect shot with mirror mode for beam-splitter rigs, a rule-of-thirds framing grid, a back-camera light for dark rooms, drag-to-reposition mid-take, a warm or cool text tint, and a dimmable background. RECORD IN ANY LANGUAGE Want to record in another language? Any language installed on your device for dictation works, and it can auto-detect your script's language. WHAT YOU GET • Voice Follow and Fixed Speed scrolling • On-device speech recognition with live word highlighting • A saved script library: search, favorites, sorting, per-script settings • Apple Watch remote with Digital Crown speed control • Front and back camera, with seamless flip on supported devices • Pause and resume into one continuous take • Redo from here: re-record from any point, stitched automatically • Mirror mode, framing grid, and camera light • Adjustable text size, color tint, and dimmable background • Pre-record countdown and full-screen editing • Paste, import .txt/.rtf, or share text in from any app • Start a new script with Siri or Shortcuts • Post-take review: playback, retake, redo, and share • Saves to Photos, with a Files fallback • Upright video export designed for sharing NO SUBSCRIPTIONS. NO ADS. NO WEIRDNESS. This is not another "free" app that becomes useless the second you need the feature you downloaded it for. No subscription. No in-app purchases. No ads. No account. No cloud processing. No tracking. No nonsense. You buy the app. You own the app. WHO IT IS FOR For creators, founders, teachers, coaches, musicians, marketers, filmmakers, salespeople, and students — anyone who needs to sound prepared without sounding robotic. Use it for social videos, Reels, Shorts and TikToks, product demos, courses, talking-head videos, YouTube scripts, and speeches. A REFRESHINGLY DIRECT TELEPROMPTER Teleprompter apps should not be complicated. You should not need a subscription to read your own script, an account to record a video, or a paywall to get modern scrolling. It gives you the feature that matters most — a prompter that keeps up with the way you actually speak — plus a script library you'll keep and an Apple Watch remote to run the take from across the room. Buy it once. Use it whenever you need to nail the take.
