Teleprompter helps content creators, presenters, and educators read scripts naturally without memorizing every line. It can be used for social media videos, online courses, presentations, video interviews, and speeches. The app offers three modes for these different uses: video recording, a standalone teleprompter, and audio recording. ● VIDEO RECORDING Video recording mode displays the script on screen while the camera records. The front camera is useful for speaking directly to an audience, while the rear camera captures everyday moments with talking points still in view. This mode works well for TikTok videos, Instagram Reels, YouTube videos, vlogs, tutorials, and online courses. ● TELEPROMPTER MODE Teleprompter mode displays scrolling text without recording video or audio. It supports presentations, speeches, and rehearsals, with either a full script or a few notes on screen. The adjustable scrolling speed makes it suitable for both practice sessions and live presentations. ● AUDIO RECORDING Audio recording mode keeps scripts or lyrics on screen while recording voiceovers, vocals, and podcast segments. Everything stays in one app, so there’s no need to switch between notes and a separate audio recorder. ● CUSTOMIZATION Scrolling speed, text size, colors, and layout can be adjusted for a comfortable reading experience. Voice-controlled scrolling allows the text to follow the speaker’s voice. Portrait and landscape support provides flexibility for different recording setups. ● FEATURES • Video recording with an on-screen script • Standalone teleprompter mode • Audio recording for voiceovers and vocals • Front and rear camera support • Voice-controlled scrolling • Adjustable scrolling speed • Customizable text size, colors, and layout • Portrait and landscape support

Rolltake is a free teleprompter for iPhone that records the take. Write or import a script, hit play, and read straight down the lens: smooth scrolling, a fixed reading line under the front camera, and controls that fade until you need them. Free. No ads, no account, no subscription, no internet required. Your scripts and your videos stay on your phone. READ AND RECORD IN ONE TAKE - Record from the front camera while the script scrolls over the lens - The text and reading line are never in the video; only you are - Full-resolution recordings with no watermark, saved straight to Photos - Keep recording or leave the app while a take saves in the background - Camera on and camera off keep their own layout: reading line, text width, position, and size READ WITHOUT LOSING YOUR PLACE - Ten speed levels instead of a vague slider, remembered per script - Drag to scrub anywhere in the script, with flick momentum - Flubbed a line? One tap jumps back a sentence - Countdown before scrolling starts: Off, 3, 5, or 10 seconds - Elapsed and remaining time while you read - Reading line at the top, center, or eye line, so your eyes stay near the lens - Screen stays awake for the whole take HANDS-FREE CONTROL - Apple Watch app: play, pause, faster, slower, from your wrist - Neewer teleprompter remotes over Bluetooth: play/pause, text size, and nudge - Presentation clickers, page-turner rings and pedals, Bluetooth keyboards, and game controllers - Speed changes and back-a-sentence while the camera is rolling MADE FOR REAL RIGS - Mirror and vertical flip for beam-splitter teleprompters - Amber and Green themes for classic glass, Paper for bright rooms, Night for dim ones - Four typefaces tuned for reading at a distance: Sans, Serif, Rounded, Mono SCRIPTS, HANDLED - Share text from Notes, Mail, Safari, or any app straight into a new script - Create scripts from Shortcuts, Siri, and Spotlight - Import .txt and Markdown files from the Files app - Export to Notes, Mail, Messages, Files, or AirDrop - Search, sort, and duplicate from the script list - Switch scripts without leaving the prompter - Editor autosaves as you type; spot a typo mid-take and fix it from the prompter WHO IT'S FOR YouTubers and video creators reading to camera. Podcasters and streamers. Course creators recording lessons. Speakers rehearsing a talk. Anyone recording a wedding toast, a pitch, or a eulogy who wants to sound like themselves instead of sounding read. Rolltake does the whole job: it prompts, it records, and it stays out of the way. No watermarks, no upgrade nags, no paywall. Open it, load your words, press record.
