coldRead

so greedy trying to get me to subscribe and only letting me rehearse 8 lines with a free account. shameful

This app is amazing! Got it last night to help me with my lines, best app ever to help with lines!! Highly recommend!!

I have used this for a year now and it offers a user-friendly interface and smooth text scrolling, which are commendable features. However, it's limited by its lack of support for various file formats and absence of advanced features. Additionally, users might experience glitches and crashes (extremely frustrating after a good take), especially with longer scripts. While it serves as a decent tool with basic functionality, the app needs improvements.

When you're trying to find somebody to read with you when it's necessary, they will be more up to do it. For final reads i'm sure most people would say yes. It's just when you start reading and you're still struggling over memorizing your lines and character. It's nice that you have that kind of ironed out before you asked me to waste their time. This app does that. I spent a lot of time doing lines and learning since I got this app. Worth every cent. Thank you.

I don’t have enough time to tell you why this app is so difficult to use. Just trust me it is not a smooth and joyful experience. It’s beyond frustrating. The IDEA of it is great, but it is clunky and glitchy and, did I mention frustrating? So if you don’t mind dealing with all the glitches to get to the part where you can rehearse than sure go for it. Otherwise, hope for an update so they can get where they should be.

My self tapes have drastically improved which beats all the time and favours it takes to get a person to read for you. We’ve all been there and it releases the pressure to take your time and get it perfect. You can have your friends or family simply record once to get the readers voice or record yourself. Then setup on a tripod as the reader. You can never tell upon playback plus the lines are there if you need it. Game changer. Love the improvements. It’s a tad expensive though would be my only complaint.

I love the idea of this app, it’s very helpful sometimes, but I’ve been having issues for about 7 months (since the last update) and writing in for help has been met with radio silence. And for an app that requires a subscription, I’m not happy… and with my year coming to a close on the 18th of July I’ll not be renewing until I see improvements. The main issue I’ve been having is, I use this mainly as a line learning/rehearsal app, and I am unable to turn off the screen and continue learning lines as I walk around. I have had this issue since the beginning of December 2022. It says “Speech recognition error” and tells me to consult the FAQ which doesn’t have info on any of this. I’ve tried changing the language, I’ve reset my phone. Happens on my old phone, on my ipad… this is an issue and needs to be fixed. Or I need a response from the “help” to try and resolve it. Maybe I’ve made an error in my setup. It’s a 5 star app, lost 2 stars 1 for the issue, 1 for the lack of customer service.

Dialogue cues can occasionally be missed - but re-recording often resolved this minor inconvenience. LOVE the teleprompter addition. Great app for those of us who hate learning lines - and for those of us who unwittingly hear motivations that they might’ve missed during memorization.

I have submitted feedback on the website and haven’t heard back. I love the idea of this app, it’s the perfect tool to help learn lines and in a pinch not need a reader, if it worked well it would be 5stars. For the first 6 months of my subscription I was able to turn the screen off have my phone in my pocket and walk around learning my lines… and since a December update I’ve gotten an error if the screen is off. Also, I’ve found that the app lags a lot in hearing and cueing my lines… on both my 13pro and my M2 iPad which should have no issue. It’s frustrating and makes me not trust the app I pay a yearly subscription on. Might not re-up when it comes up in July… please acknowledge and help me fix these issues.
