Script Display for iPhone Video Recording
Promptr by MRVL is a teleprompter app that displays your script on iPhone while recording video simultaneously, letting you read naturally without memorising lines. The app pairs script display with recording tools so you capture footage and teleprompter feed at the same time.
How Script Display Works in Promptr
Promptr shows your script on the iPhone screen in large, scrollable text while you film. You control scroll speed using Smart Scroll (automatic, based on reading pace) or Timed Scroll (manual tap to advance). The script stays centred and readable, and you can adjust font size, background colour, and text opacity to suit your lighting. Import scripts from TXT, PDF, RTF, or DOCX files. Free users get Smart and Timed Scroll modes with a 3-script limit; Creator and Pro tiers unlock unlimited scripts, AI script writing assistance, and additional display themes.
Video Recording While Reading From Display
Creator tier and above unlocks simultaneous video recording. Press record, read from the Promptr display, and the iPhone camera captures your performance. You can adjust manual exposure and apply colour grading filters during recording to match your brand or lighting conditions. Pro tier adds voice scroll, which advances the script based on your speech cadence, freeing you from tap controls entirely. Each recording is saved as a separate take, so you can do multiple runs without starting over.
Export and Post-Production
Once recorded, Promptr exports your video file for editing in your preferred software. Free and Creator tiers add a Promptr watermark; Pro removes it for watermark-free export. Pro also includes on-device captions with a pacing coach that marks where you're reading too fast or slow. You can add background music, beauty filters, and background blur before export. For branded content, Pro's Brand Kit lets you overlay a custom colour grade or logo on every recording.
Who Uses Promptr for Script Display
Content creators, YouTubers, podcast hosts, preachers, lecturers, and public speakers use Promptr to deliver scripted content confidently. Anyone who needs to read from a script while maintaining eye contact with the camera benefits from the teleprompter display. Creators who record multiple takes, edit elsewhere, and need fast turnaround prefer the Creator tier's core recording and filtering tools. Those who need captions, voice-controlled scrolling, and branded exports rely on Pro.

Getting Started With Script Display on iPhone
Download Promptr free, import or paste your script, and choose Smart Scroll or Timed Scroll. Test the display settings (font size, background, opacity) in portrait or landscape mode. If you want to record video, upgrade to Creator or Pro. Position your iPhone so the script display is visible but off-camera, then start recording. For best results, prop the device at eye level and test your reading speed with Smart Scroll before committing to a full take. Voice scroll on Pro tier removes the need to tap or manage scroll speed yourself.

Frequently asked questions
Can I record video and display a script at the same time on iPhone?
Yes. Promptr's Creator and Pro tiers let you read from the teleprompter display while recording video on the same device. The script shows on your iPhone screen; the camera records you reading it.
What file formats can I import into Promptr?
Promptr accepts TXT, PDF, RTF, and DOCX files. You can also paste script text directly into the app.
Does Promptr edit video or just display scripts?
Promptr displays scripts and records video; it does not edit video. Export your recording and edit in software like Final Cut Pro, Adobe Premiere, or DaVinci Resolve.
What is the difference between Smart Scroll and Timed Scroll?
Smart Scroll automatically advances as you read (matching your pace); Timed Scroll lets you tap to advance manually at your own rhythm.
Can I remove the watermark when exporting?
Yes, but only with Pro tier. Free and Creator tiers include a Promptr watermark on exported videos.
Is Promptr available on Android?
No. Promptr is built for iPhone and iPad only, as of June 2026.
