Teleprompter is a teleprompter and autocue app for iPhone and iPad. Read your script on screen while you record video, and keep natural eye contact with the camera. Use Teleprompter as a teleprompter app for creating videos for TikTok and YouTube Shorts, property tours, online courses, presentations, and speaking on camera at work. WHY TELEPROMPTER? 1. VIDEO RECORDING Record While You Read: Record video inside the app while your script scrolls. Virtual Backgrounds (Pro): Blur your background or choose Heavy Blur, Black, White, or Green Screen for a cleaner recording setup. Auto Captions (Pro): Show your script as subtitles that stay in sync with the cue line. They are created on your device and burned into the recorded video. 2. ADVANCED TELEPROMPTER CONTROLS Pinch-to-Resize: Adjust font size and text margins directly on the teleprompter stage. Scrolling Modes: Choose manual scrolling or continuous auto-scroll. Tap the stage to quickly start or pause. Timed Scrolling (Pro): Set a target duration and the scroll speed adjusts automatically to finish your script on time. Mirror Mode (free trial, then Pro): Mirror your script for beam-splitter teleprompter glass, professional rigs, and studio setups. External Display Output (Pro): Display your teleprompter on an external monitor, TV, or studio setup using a wired HDMI adapter or AirPlay screen mirroring. 3. HANDS-FREE REMOTE CONTROL Keyboards, Clickers and Pedals: Use Bluetooth and USB keyboards, plus presentation clickers and page-turning pedals (such as AirTurn) that send keyboard keys, to start, stop, and control scrolling. Multi-Device Control (Pro): Connect a second device running Teleprompter over Bluetooth to control your session remotely. 4. ON-DEVICE, OFFLINE SCRIPT MANAGEMENT Organize Your Scripts: Group scripts into projects, archive older content, and recover deleted scripts from Trash for up to 30 days.

Which remotes, keyboards and foot pedals work? Teleprompter works with Bluetooth and USB keyboards, and with presentation clickers or page-turning pedals (such as AirTurn) that act as keyboards.
