Prompster Pro™ - Teleprompter

Appreciate the new features, even the icon looks cool. Just wish this app had a way where instead of having to hit stop each time or fiddling with the speed buttons in order to slow down or speed up the prompt; that the (black) prompt screen could be advanced or frozen by the swipe or touch of a finger, yet done in such a way that would not affect the timer. Another great feature would be an edit on the fly feature, or at least when going back to edit mode, that the screen could leave off more or less where the prompt mode was at, rather than having to stop the prompt, switch back to edit, scroll furiously through the whole presentation to find where the edit needs to be made, then switch back to prompt, wherein the darn thing takes you all the way back to the beginning, and once again you have to scroll furiously to find your spot. This is the worst when it's 5 minutes before show time. Another thing that seems kinda bad: because I tend to carry the iPad in-hand while speaking, sometimes my gestures cause the screen to rotate. Now I lock the screen with the side switch, but should the screen rotate, the action itself takes you to a whole different area of the text while in prompt. One just has to remember to lock.

What a waste of money! I could not easily get my content to load. It never loaded after many many attempts. I finally gave up and purchased another app. No refunds are available and so here is my review. If I could give ZERO starts I would.

OK guys, I was really enjoying this app I’m not sure what’s up since the new update but it will not open on my iPad or my iPhone. What is the resolution?

Prompster is perfect for my presentations! I am able to easily import my text documents and format them into elegant, easy to read scripts. Prompster has smooth, variable speed scrolling and can be stopped with a touch or I can quickly jump back or ahead manually. But what has made me a "one man multimedia machine" is the ability to run Prompster, iPod, and a projected Keynote slideshow simultaneously and flick from one app to another. This enables me to read from a scrolling script in Prompster, then flick to stop an iPod track, or advance to another slide in Keynote, and then flick back to my script where Prompster has paused the scrolling where I left off to go to the other apps. I give an A+ to Prompster. Also to customer support because they responded to my questions and concerns immediately. And I'm as tough a critic as some of the audiences I address while using Prompster. There are other features like recording your presentations which I haven't needed to use yet, but it's a very robust app especially for the price.

I read the prior reviews, and was concerned regarding support and performance. Having now used this app extensively for several days I can attest it is solid and performs as promised. I did have a problem, which was easily resolved after a very prompt return of my request for support. I won't repeat the features that are promised: just know they all work as promised. My one problem was when recording a short promo, the video recording would stop before I completed my script. Within 24 hours I received a response suggesting that the script might be so short, it reached the end of the school and automatically stop recording. This was the case, I simply added some white space at the bottom of my script, and it worked flawlessly.
