Prompt+ Teleprompter

Does exactly what it should with advanced features like voice detection scrolling for a one time fee compared to other apps that charge monthly or annually! Voice scrolling works great, to text spoken words and scrolls the prompter at your own pace versus being forced into something that’s time based and turns out being very monotone. Has all the options you would need for a teleprompter plus control with another iOS device Bluetooth device. Great paying for your buck! Support by the developer is very prompt.

I’m not sure what the developer has been doing for the past 2-3 years, but it hasn’t been improving stability, at least based on older review. Because the app today in 2025 is a buggy mess. Yes, it’s incredible when it works. It has a great feature set, and is easy to use. But that’s only when a random bug isn’t getting in your way. iPhone being used as remote disconnects randomly from the ipad, causing it to continue scrolling, causing a bad take? Yep, it happens regularly. What to open up settings to reconnect the devices? Oops, thats a freeze, time to restart the app. Need to edit a script on your macbook to make a quick change, or edit the font color? 50% chance of crash. Importing a script from a pdf or copying text over from Word? I hope your talent can read past all the “d”s or whatever random letter being replaced to some random character, making a jumbled mess of a script if you’re in a time crunch. I’ll give an extra star because the app does genuinely do great when it does work. It’s just so unreliable that I’m done with it, and am searching for a replacement. Don’t bother with this app if you need a stable platform.

This app has so many issues. I worked on macOS for 13 years at Apple so I understand applications. The UI doesn't respond to a lot of standard macOS keyboard shortcuts, but that is a minor issue compared to basic functionality failure. I bought the app for the voice telepompter support, but that works iffy at best. It frequently looses track of where I am at, and starting/restopping gets it confused. I have to stop/start the Voice Scroll feature to get it to work again, and that is super annoying. The saving of scripts is buggy, doesn't seem to interpret files with < > in them, and sometimes doesn't save my work. I haven't spent the time to reproduce or report a lot of these bugs to the developer, as I just don't have the time to do their QA for them. Overall, it seems like a bad port from the iPad to macOS.
