Best Prompter Pro - teleprompter App Reviews

nice but not too user friendly

Nicely written app, but I did find that the navigation features available in playback - ie jump to headings, are unavailable during edit mode, and when you switch from playback to edit mode, it loses your place. Long texts are therefore hard to edit, as you cant easily find where you were prior to entering edit mode.

Pretty Good

I love the concept. Just wish you could adjust spacing (double space for easier reading), import from Word, save the document and be able to see the finished look of bold, italics, etc. Make those adjustments for a 4 star rating!

Great app

I use it to practice speeches where I will be using a TelePrompTer and it really helps prepare me

Does NOT support doc files?

How can one advertise a program or app that is a professional teleprompter for business purposes that does not support importing of doc or PDF files? Plus every time I go to my Dropbox I get asked if I want to create a file and when I do it just kicks me out of the file and I cant get to my files.

Bad document handling

I could not get past my first document. I hand-created a very simple HTML document and imported it with dropbox. No matter what I tried, the app would only display my document in a 3-inch column, as if I were on an iPhone, not an iPad. Most of the screen was whitespace with this silly little column of text. Totally useless. I tried reformatting the document and simplifying it even further but this app simply is not able to import HTML effectively, even very simple HTML. It ignores most of the styles and produces unreadable text. Unreadable is not a selling point for a prompter.

Works well

Program works well and has good features to use for my talks. If only it could import word docs I would give it 5 stars. Still one of the better programs that I have tried.

Great Product

I think this is am amazing product. Well thought out. I wish that the scrolling and audio could be linked at my option, though I like that they are not linked at times also because I am able to practice better that way. Also, I think the app needs larger font sizes available. Also, needs the ability to import word, pages, and PDF docs. An app of a professional nature would not make me try to scroll through documents copying on the ipad and would have a simple import feature. All that said, the app is strong and works well to help me prepare for my public speaking engagements. I can use it both in practice, and live if I have not memorized my speech. Thank you for this app!!!

Prompter

Excellent, highly recommended. Excellent and easily usable.

Great for musicians / singer-songwriters

This app is indispensable for me. I create my own lyric sheets just the way I like them and this app makes it easy. You can set the scroll speed as you like and just let the lyrics come up as you sing and play. I like to pit the chords above the lyrics and thats easy to do, too... just leave room by putting each stanza 3 lines apart by hitting "enter" a couple of times. This app is well worth the price. Of course there is room for improvement... There always is. But for the cost of this app and its ease of use, its functionality... I give it 5 stars. So glad I found it. I use it all the time.

Great but not perfect

When in edit mode for revising text, the scrolling function usually is quite unstable. I tap on a word I want to edit, and the screen will move the pointer (flashing I) several lines above or below where I tap! Very hard to get the pointer to stay where I tap! Thats my only complaint about a great app! Update: looks like my problem has been resolved- thanks!

Not bad at all

First gripe though is that font does not get bigger than 30, come on you youngsters! How about size 60? I need to read it from about four feet away so here I am squinting at the camera. Please add larger font sizes

So close to perfect...

Ive bought enough speaker / prompter apps to buy a small island in the South Pacific. All of them have strengths and weaknesses, but this one stands above the rest in terms of useful functionality. Its just a real shame that the developer has given up on the app. Clearly, were never going to see another update, and thats too bad, because with a few small improvements, PrompterPro would leave all the others in the dust. Yes, the interface is outdated and desperately needs a facelift. But Im willing to overlook that in exchange for functionality that will actually help me be a more effective speaker. With a cleaner, less busy design, this app would be far more pleasant. I do hate having to manually refresh the Dropbox feed to this app. I dont own any other app that forces me to do this, and it just feels clunky. Also, if they would allow PDFs to be displayed rather than just text, that would really make this far more versatile. Hey devs, youve done a brilliant job with this... why have you abandoned it? Please give it one more go and keep this great app alive!
