Teleprompter with camera: read your script, keep eye contact

Paste your script, tap record, and the text scrolls over the camera picture. Your eyes stay close to the lens, you never lose your place, and the take sounds like you are speaking freely. The text itself never ends up in the video.

How to record with the teleprompter

  1. 1

    Paste your script

    Type it or paste it from your notes, ChatGPT or an email. The app shows you the estimated speaking time.

  2. 2

    Pick a camera

    Front camera for a selfie take. The better rear camera pays off with a mirror rig in front of the lens, because otherwise the screen faces away from you.

  3. 3

    Set speed and font

    Scroll speed, font size, background dimming and zoom are set right inside the recording view.

  4. 4

    Record

    After a 3-2-1 countdown the text starts together with the recording. Pause, rewind and adjust in the middle of a take.

What the teleprompter does

Native audio

The app records through the phone's own camera stack, not the browser. You get full, clear sound instead of the tinny audio many web teleprompters produce.

Text stays off the video

The script only lives on your screen. The finished video shows only you.

Mirror, colours, grid

Mirror the text for a beam-splitter rig, switch the text colour for daylight, and show a grid to line up your shot.

Subtitles without transcription

While you record, the app notes when you read each line. Those timings become your subtitles later, with no transcription step.

Tips for a natural take

  • Hold the phone so the text sits just below the lens: your eyes barely move.
  • Start a little slower and speed up mid-take rather than chasing the text.
  • Write the way you talk: short sentences, one thought per line.
  • Don't stop for a slip of the tongue: the app cuts pauses and filler words afterwards.
