Recording
Recording is part of Prompt Flower Pro. Without Pro, the camera button opens the overview of Pro features.
Recording

- Tap Start recording. One button starts both: the recording and voice follow.
- Stop recording stops both.
Fluffed it? Tap Sentence or Paragraph in the camera bar and say the sentence again. The recording keeps running; every jump back sets a marker. The rough cut removes the abandoned attempts later.
To leave recording mode, use … › Leave recording mode.
Camera preview
Section titled “Camera preview”The preview is small. Tap it to hide it so you don’t watch yourself while speaking. The camera icon shows it again; the app remembers your choice. If you don’t want a preview at all, turn it off under … › Appearance › Camera preview.

After recording
Section titled “After recording”Recording saved appears with:
- Save to Photos (video only): the first time, iOS asks whether Prompt Flower may add photos. The app cannot read your photos.
- Share: AirDrop to your Mac, Messages, Files and so on.
Every recording is also in the Files app under On My iPhone › Prompt Flower.
The recordings list
Section titled “The recordings list”In a script’s editor, the Recordings tab shows all its recordings, newest first:
- Tap to play. You see the markers in the player.
- Star good takes; the Starred only switch filters the list.
- Touch and hold for Save to Photos, Share, Export Subtitles & Markers … (Export), Rough cut … and Delete.
Deleting removes the file from the iPhone. Copies saved to Photos are kept.
Recordings whose script you deleted are under Settings › Recordings (filter No script). There you can reassign them with Assign to script.
Storage
Section titled “Storage”4K video takes a lot of space. Save finished takes to Photos or your Mac and then delete them in Prompt Flower.
