Speeches is an App for preparing and delivering speeches and pitches. Prepare speaker's notes and deliver a great speech — perfectly timed — no matter what the occasion.
Be it a wedding speech, sermon, business presentation, or evening at the debating club, navigating your notes is that much easier with Speeches as your portable teleprompter.
Prepare your notes directly in Speeches on your iPhone or iPad, or import a text file from Mail or another App (e.g. Dropbox, Files). You can also email your speech to solicit feedback from friends and colleagues, and your speeches sync between devices with iCloud.
Speeches helps with your preparation. Organize notes, set a speech duration, and practice to make sure you can finish on time. Having difficulty with a particular section? Jump to any note and continue from there.
Once your speech is prepared, it's time to deliver. Speeches presents your notes as easy to navigate cue cards. No more juggling of paper notes, or fiddly scrolling in an App not designed for the pressure of public speaking. Just swipe back and forth. Simple gestures keep you focussed on speaking, and not on negotiating your notes.
Speeches goes well beyond paper notes when it comes to keeping track of your time. The onscreen timing meter shows at a glance exactly how far along you are. A second bar shows your progress through the notes. By comparing the two, you can see if you are going too fast or too slow.
In short, Speeches is the App you need to write, practice and deliver your next speech with precision and confidence.

Speeches App FAQ
Is Speeches App free?
Speeches App is not free (it costs 7.99), however it doesn't contain in-app purchases or subscriptions.
Is Speeches App legit?
🤔 The Speeches App app's quality is mixed. Some users are satisfied, while others report issues. Consider reading individual reviews for more context.
Agree with Annie - really needs formatting features like bold and underline at least, colour could be useful. It would be a big improvement if the user could jump to edit from the timed run-through speech section (e.g. long press to jump to edit that line). Instead, you have to back out to the edit area, and then find the line you need to edit, enter that screen, make the edit, and then return to where you were. Granted you can do this from the edit part but sometimes you want to tweak as you’re running through it during practice. Also the edit buttons forward/back/add line are a bit close together. Could be really good with all these improvements (and worth the price).
Ok but room for improvement
Quite useful app. Would be great if it allowed text to be formatted to allow underlines and bolding.
Mr
Just downloaded this app which seemed ok until I recognised that what you add a new speech on your iPad it doesn’t appear on your iPhone!! Surely these IOS devises sync so you get the same files on each devise? If they don’t I wish I hadn’t bought it :(
Basic
Easy to use but very limited in function and adaptability. I can't read my notes beyond 1 page or increase font size.
I'm off to find better.
Speeches
I purchased this application which certainly looks good. The documentation for using this application is absolutley basic, it needs to be more self explanatory, it is difficult to setup to use with the current very basic documentation. Improve the documentation and it would be good
Ok but basic
This app is ok - it basically does what it says it's going to do, but it's a bit basic. You can only have one font for the whole speech, and the timer is in a small font and can't be changed. I really need to be able to glance at it without obviously reading from it, and this app doesn't let me do that
Is this a scam?
Terrible. Did not manage to do the simplest thing: import text from Word or email. Is this a scam?
Costs a lot, barely works
If you want to spend $5 to get really frustrated by an app during the already stressful process of delivering a speech, look no further. This app will make you shout at your phone. What could be more fun?
Limited functionality
Biggest gripe is not being able to swipe up to down to move from card to card. Awkward to swipe to right with one’s left thumb. Overpriced app.
Dropbox Import Problem
Over the past 4 years, I have relied on this great app on a daily basis. I recently purchased a new iPad and was excited about the prospect of importing my old speeches via DropBox. Alas, the app crashes repeatedly and consistently during the import process.
