Stop losing your place mid-take. Teleprompter is built for creators who film talking videos on iPhone and don't want to memorize every line. Put your script over the camera preview, read naturally, and let the prompter follow your voice instead of a fixed timer. Use it for Reels, TikToks, Shorts, UGC scripts, product videos, course intros, coaching clips, founder updates, and any talking-head take where you want to stay on message without staring at notes. WHY CREATORS USE IT • Voice-follow pacing: the prompt moves with your speech, word by word. • Less restarting: keep your place when you pause, breathe, or ad-lib. • No jumps: the highlight only moves forward — even when your script repeats a line. • Camera-first recording: read while seeing your framing on the live preview. • Your own scripts: write or paste them, organize them, record when ready. • Read-Along mode: practice or rehearse without starting the camera. • Clean capture: a standard .mov saved to Photos, no watermark, ready for the editor you already use. PRIVATE BY DESIGN Speech recognition runs on device. No account, no analytics, and no app-owned network services. Teleprompter never uploads your scripts or footage. Videos saved to Photos follow your iCloud settings. WHAT IT IS NOT Not an AI video editor, caption generator, template library, social scheduler, or posting tool. One job: helping you read naturally while recording a usable take. LANGUAGE SUPPORT Voice-follow works in English, Russian, Spanish (Latin America and Spain), Portuguese (Brazil and Portugal), Vietnamese, and Malay when an on-device speech model for the selected language is available on your iPhone. If speech recognition is unavailable, timed scrolling still works. SUBSCRIPTION DETAILS Teleprompter is available as a monthly or yearly subscription. Eligible new subscribers get a 7-day free trial. Apple shows the exact price and terms before you confirm. Manage or cancel anytime through the App Store. The guided sample is free, so you can test voice-follow on your device before subscribing.
