Teleprompter for iPhone
The script follows your voice.
You speak, Prompt Flower reads along. Pause and the script waits. Speed up and it keeps up. Skip a sentence and it finds its place again. Speech recognition runs on the iPhone, in English and German.
I don't set a speed and I don't press a pedal. I just talk. [Pause] When I pause, the script waits for me. When I speed up, it keeps up.
Recognition runs on the iPhone. No audio leaves the device.
How it works
No pedal, no speed setting, no second person.
Add your script
Write in the editor or import text, PDF or Word. Stage directions in square brackets such as
[Pause]are dimmed and skipped while following.Start talking
Tap the flower and speak. Spoken words turn grey, the reading line stays in the upper third, close to the camera. Fluffed a sentence? Back to sentence and go again.
Record and reuse
Record video or audio only, ideally with a wireless lavalier. Afterwards: subtitles from your script, markers for the edit and a rough cut without the abandoned attempts.
RecordingPro
One button starts recording and voice follow.
The script runs right below the front camera, so your eyes stay close to the lens. The camera preview is small and hides with a tap, so you don’t end up watching yourself.
- Sound from a wireless lavalier: plug the receiver into USB-C or Lightning and Prompt Flower uses it automatically.
- Unplugged? The recording continues with the built-in microphone.
- Video in 1080p or 4K, one file with picture and sound. Or audio only, for podcasts and voice-overs.
- Recordings belong to their script: watch, star, share, save to Photos.
After the takePro
Subtitles, markers and rough cut from your script.
The subtitle text comes from your script, spelled correctly. The timing comes from speech recognition, word by word. Every Back to sentence during a take sets a marker – and the rough cut removes the abandoned attempts. You review every cut, the original stays untouched.

Remote
A second device controls it, in the browser.
Open the remote and Prompt Flower shows a QR code. A tablet, a laptop or a second phone on the same Wi-Fi scans it and controls the prompter in its browser: start and pause, sentence and paragraph back and forward, speed, font size.
- No app, no internet, no account. The connection stays on your Wi-Fi.
- Protected by an access code in the QR code. Stop disconnects all devices and invalidates the code.
- Free, without Pro.
Privacy
Nothing goes to the internet.
Prompt Flower uses iOS speech recognition in on-device-only mode. No audio and no text go to the internet – not to me, not to Apple, not to anyone else.
- Recognition on the deviceIf it isn’t available for a language, the script scrolls at a fixed pace. There is no detour via a server.
- No account, no ads, no analyticsThe app contains no analytics or tracking services. The App Store label reads “Data Not Collected”.
- Remote on your Wi-Fi onlyIt connects your devices directly, without going through the internet.
- Purchases through AppleApple handles subscriptions and the one-time purchase. I receive no payment details.

Questions
Frequently asked questions
Which languages does Prompt Flower understand?
English and German. You set the language per script.
Do I need internet?
No. Voice follow, recording and export work offline. If the language pack is missing, iOS downloads it from Apple once – from the app’s settings or through iOS dictation (how to). Buying Pro goes through the App Store.
Which microphone do I need?
The built-in microphone is fine for practice. For recordings I recommend a wireless lavalier with a USB-C or Lightning receiver; Prompt Flower picks it automatically. The app does not use Bluetooth microphones. More in Lavalier and iPhone.
How is this different from a regular teleprompter?
A regular teleprompter scrolls at a fixed speed, or someone operates it. Prompt Flower listens and follows you. If you prefer a fixed pace, speed mode is there too.
Which iPhones are supported?
iPhones with iOS 17 or later. The app runs in portrait; it is not available for iPad yet.
What happens when the 5 minutes are used up?
The script keeps scrolling at a fixed pace; a recording in progress is not interrupted. The next day the script follows your voice for another 5 minutes.
Can I redeem an offer code?
Yes, in the app under Settings › Redeem Code. More in Subscription and purchases.
Android
Android is coming as a beta.
Prompt Flower launches on iPhone first. An Android beta via Google Play is planned. Write to me if you’d like to test it; I only use your email address to invite you to the beta.
