Frequently Asked Questions

Can I use this on a tablet or phone?

Yes. The teleprompter works on any modern browser including mobile Safari and Chrome. Use fullscreen mode for the best experience on smaller screens.

Most people speak at 120-150 words per minute. Start around 40-50% speed and adjust up or down until it matches your natural speaking pace.

Tips & Best Practices

Write for the ear: Use contractions, casual language, and short sentences. Write the way you speak, not the way you write an essay.
Add pause markers: Insert ellipses (“...”) or blank lines where you want to take a breath or emphasize a point.
Practice first: Read through your script several times before recording. Familiarity helps you sound natural rather than robotic.
Use large font: Increase the font size so you can read comfortably without squinting. This also helps you look relaxed on camera.
Position near the lens: The closer the teleprompter is to the camera lens, the more natural your eye contact appears to viewers.
Do not read word-for-word: Use the script as a guide and allow yourself to ad-lib occasionally for a more authentic delivery.
