DualScroll: side-by-side dual script teleprompter. DualScroll scrolls two different scripts at once while you read, so you deliver your lines flawlessly without looking down. Record yourself while reading for the illusion of great eye contact and script memory. Two scripts is the point. Put the same words in two languages side by side and your translator reads at exactly your pace, because both panes are driven by one clock. Speaker and signer, presenter and prompter, lines and stage directions: anywhere two people need to stay together, DualScroll keeps them together. START ON LITE, UPGRADE WHEN YOU WANT DualScroll opens on Lite, with every feature unlocked so you can try it all first. Lite is capped at 60 seconds per session, prompting or recording, and keeps one script and one recording. Everything else unlocks inside this app, with nothing else to download: - Pro is a one-off in-app purchase, lifting the Lite limits: unlimited scripts and recordings, no time cap, full PDF import. - Pro Plus is a yearly in-app subscription, adding the production tools below for as long as you subscribe. It runs for one year and renews automatically unless you turn renewal off at least 24 hours before it ends. Manage or cancel it any time in your App Store account settings. Sections marked Pro Plus are available on Lite and Pro Plus, but not on Pro.
