Lifelong Teleprompter

Read full description

Read like you mean it. Lifelong Teleprompter is a focused, full-screen prompter built for anchors, presenters, podcasters, and content creators. It does one thing well — turning your script into a clean, controllable reading experience — and stays out of your way. WHAT YOU CAN DO • Write or import scripts. A clean editor with autosave, hash-coloured label chips, and drag-from-Files import for .txt scripts. Your work saves the moment you name it. • Read on a calm stage. The prompter renders your text at any size you set, with a soft reading-zone fade — the line you're speaking stays bright in the middle while the surrounding text dims to a quiet grey. • Mirror for glass rigs. Horizontal and vertical mirror modes for prompter glass setups; vertical mirror also reverses playback direction so the text marches the right way for the reader. • Drive it without touching the screen. Pair any Bluetooth HID clicker (Digiocraft Proshot included) — Page Up/Down, arrows, volume, Enter, Esc, F5/F6, and more — then rebind any key from Settings. • Control speed and font on the fly. Pre-set defaults in Settings, then nudge speed (0.25× to 4×) and font size (8–144 pt) per session. After a moment of stillness the controls fade so the reading area stays clean; tap anywhere to wake them. • Read in any script. Multi-script font fallback for Hindi, Tamil, Bengali, Gujarati, Telugu, Kannada, Malayalam, Gurmukhi, Oriya, Arabic, and CJK content — paste your script in any modern language and it renders cleanly. • Countdown, rotate, remember. Toggle a 1–10-second countdown before play, rotate the stage in-app independent of OS orientation, remember your last orientation per device. WHO IT'S FOR News anchors, podcast hosts, video presenters, conference speakers, content creators, and anyone whose work involves reading something polished out loud. Lifelong Teleprompter is built by the team at Lifelong Online for our own newsroom — and shaped by their daily feedback. INTENTIONALLY SIMPLE No accounts. No ads. No clutter. The interface is two screens: a library of your scripts and the prompter itself. Settings are minimal because the defaults are right. Need help or have a feature request?
