Script Rehearser

Yes, at least for my memorizing style, this app is perfection. All you need to do is import a pdf of any script and then you can go into the characters feature, choose your character in the script and the app will read all the other lines of all other characters to you. You can choose, as you begin to learn, to have the app play a Beep ss your cue, you can indicate how long you want a pause for speaking lines, it csn read that line back to you for comparison and any corrections. Or do none of that once you’re confident of your ability. You can choose which voice you want for every character from a good selection, change the pitch or speed of the voice, and the app will also read all of the stage directions (or you can select those be silent) It recognizes commas and you can edit the script as well, for example, indicate a (pause) If you get the upgraded membership, one of the perks is a bigger selection of voices, including accents such as British or Australian, plus others. I am able to memorize lines overnight because of this app. All of these options, the ease of using the app and a great support system, headed up by Maggie, make Script Rehearser the BEST app for learning a script as well as being able to Write one!!!! Absolutely A+++

So I downloaded this app in the first place because I needed something to help me memorize my lines, and I saw that it was free. The first problem I encountered was the script. It would be much easier if you could take a photo of the page with your lines and then it could be copied into text on your device. I ended up having to type everything out because I don't know how to download a pdf and it would be nice to have a tutorial or other options that don't require using 2 hours of your time typing lines into an app that was supposed to be convenient and helpful. Then after all of that happened and I was finally finished typing, it wasn't reading the right lines I had adjusted on the settings and nothing I had set was working properly. Finally, I just ended up giving up and now I am writing this terrible review. I advise anyone reading this to not use this app if you are looking for something simple and quick to help memorize your lines. Thank you for your time, and I hope this will be fixed for future users.

When I imported the pdf of my script, I was really impressed with how the app organized lines by character so quickly. A really great app if you like to read your lines for practice and don’t like the hassle of highlighting. However! The digital voices installed in the app are incredibly creepy-to the point of being distracting, and not just because they’re robotic. Cuz I think maybe people recorded the syllables or something initially???? Also. The “tutorials” were not very helpful. General use of the app was difficult because of this. Information on WHERE to click to access voice settings/other info was really unclear, as well as how to record your own? I may consider purchasing the Pro upgrade, but my concerns with the current model of the app I have are enough that I don’t think the pro version will be much better. 🤷‍♀️
