Prepare your words. Find your pace. Keep your place. Phrasa brings your Scripts and teleprompter together on iPad and iPhone. Draft or import your words, organize them in your Library, and open the Prompter when you are ready to rehearse or present. READ YOUR WAY Use Speed mode to move at a steady pace. Adjust the text and presentation to suit your reading distance. On supported devices, On-device Voice follows your speech while keeping recognition on the device. KEEP YOUR WORK TOGETHER Organize Scripts in folders, set their recording order, and choose Present folder to read them in one Run. Use Outlines for cue cards and keep bookmarks for places you want to revisit. Restore deleted Scripts, including their History, from Recently Deleted until you choose to delete them permanently. Import and share Scripts, and create Library backups. WORK ON IPAD Use portrait or landscape, arrange Phrasa beside another app, and use hardware-keyboard controls. Compatible Clickers and a paired browser Remote offer additional ways to control a Run. START WITHOUT AN ACCOUNT Your Guest Library stays on your device. An optional Account adds Library sync and connections with supported Agent clients. You choose which Agents can access your Library and can revoke their access. Cloud Voice is available to Account holders with 100 free Voice Minutes a month. On-device Voice availability depends on the device, system, and language. Speed mode works without speech recognition. MOVING FROM THE NATIVE APP This update starts with an empty Library and a new Account system. Your old on-device Library and Account are not migrated. To bring Scripts across, import a native phrasa-library JSON backup. Support: https://app.phrasa.app/support Privacy: https://app.phrasa.app/privacy
