CueCard has two ways to stay on script: a floating teleprompter for continuous scripts above any app, and swipeable cue cards for shorter talking points. Control playback from your Apple Watch or iPhone Action Button without reaching for the screen. FEATURES • Free & No Sign-In Required: No ads or subscriptions. Scripts stay on your device. • Floating Teleprompter: Keep your script visible above other apps, like your camera or a video call, while you record, present, stream, or speak live. • Video Recording: Record videos directly in CueCard using the teleprompter or swipeable cue cards. Read your script while recording without it appearing in the video. Videos save to Photos. • Takes: View videos recorded using your scripts, including recordings made with other camera apps. Organize them with tags, notes, favorites, and albums. • Timer & Auto-Scrolling: Set a countdown, track your time, and let your script scroll smoothly at your pace. • Swipeable Cue Cards: Break your script into cards and move through them one at a time while you speak. • Teleprompter Mirroring: Mirror your script to read it through a teleprompter mirror. • Apple Watch & Action Button: Control playback and track your timer from your wrist. Read cue cards on your Apple Watch without your iPhone, or use the Action Button to play and pause. • Speaking Cues: Add colored cues for tone, emphasis, expressions, pauses, or reminders without reading them aloud. • Rich Text Formatting: Make words bold or italic to emphasize important parts of your script. • Multiple Languages: Available in English, Spanish, Russian, Portuguese, and French. • Lock Screen Access: Keep your cue cards within reach from the Lock Screen. • Saved Notes: Search notes, view version history, compare changes, and restore older versions. • Customize Your Way: Adjust reading speed, text size, layout, appearance, cue colors, and more. • Import & Export: Import .txt and .rtf files, export scripts with cues, and save notes to folders outside the app. Made for creators, educators, presenters, streamers, speakers, and anyone who wants their words within reach while they speak.
