Made for iPhone Duo: half-open on the lectern, the phone is its own teleprompter stand. You have a speech to give โ a wedding toast, a keynote, a eulogy, a pitch. SpeechDraft is the whole job in one app: plan the speech block by block (opening, story, point, toast), write every word right inside the blocks, rehearse it against the clock, and stand up with full-screen cue cards or a teleprompter that follows your plan. From first idea to public speaking โ plan it, write it, say it on time. PLAN IT BLOCK BY BLOCK โข Over 25 templates shaped by how great speeches actually work โ wedding speeches, best man, maid of honor, father or mother of the bride, keynotes, investor pitches, stand-up sets, storytelling nights, eulogies, the 90-second job-interview answer, master of ceremonies, panel moderating and more โข Every block carries a coaching hint: what belongs there and why โ shown on the part you are about to write โข Set a target length and watch the total build as you plan โข Set the date you speak: the home screen and the widget count down to it, and a reminder comes the evening before WRITE IT IN PLACE โข Speech writing where the structure is: every word lives inside its block โ no separate document to lose โข Add photos or illustrations to your cue cards โข Reorder with a drag when the story wants a different shape DELIVER IT WITH CONFIDENCE โข Full-screen cue cards with a pace line per card: it fills as you speak, turns amber when it's time to land, red if you've gone over โข A teleprompter that takes its pace from the timings you set โ "Match my plan" solves the scroll rate that lands the speech exactly on time, and a pace chip flags the moment you drift โข One big total clock โ so you always know if the speech fits the slot โข Dark stage mode, adjustable text size, and the screen stays awake โข Tap either side or swipe to move โ works with a thumb, from a podium โข Finish inside your plan and the closing check turns green PRINT IT, OR SHARE IT โข Print your cue cards at card size โ 3ร5, 4ร6, A6 or A5 โ on card stock or on sheets with cut marks, as PDF or Word โข Export a clean PDF, Word or Excel rundown of the whole speech โข Share the speech itself with a co-speaker โ it opens straight in their SpeechDraft โข Preview matches the export exactly PRICING SpeechDraft is free to try: build and write your first two speeches in full, take the first three cards on stage โ on the cue cards and the teleprompter alike โ and export a PDF with a small SpeechDraft mark. One purchase โ no subscription โ unlocks unlimited speeches, the whole speech on stage, and clean PDF, Word & Excel exports. Works on iPhone, iPad and Mac (Apple Silicon) โ start on one device and finish on another. Made by Vardnir โ in Norway.

Verdict
The clearest difference is in-app purchases: TheoTimer at none against SpeechDraft's 1. SpeechDraft's advantage is update cadence (every 2 days vs every 4 days) and iOS requirement (15.0 vs 17.0). On price, ads and device support there is nothing between them.
