Absolutely love this app! It’s become my new favorite way to read scripts, especially for the customizable voices. I read a high volume of scripts for work, and the app has not only allowed me to focus more on material but also increase my productivity quite a bit. Highly recommend for work as well as casual reading.
App is great but no longer opens.
I really enjoy the app but soon as I subscribed to the premium service. The app will no longer stay open for no more than 10 seconds.
Stopped working since update
Since the latest update the app stopped working altogether. It won't even open at all and I'm on the latest iOS on the iPhone 15 pro 🤬🤬🤬
Mind you I'm a paid subscriber... how do I go about getting my refund?
Only option out there
While it has room for improvement, I’m very glad this app exists. In my career I need to read scripts. And for a person with life-long ADD where my mind roams while I’m reading, this is a perfect idea to keep me on task and focused. Thank you!
Nearly Perfect
After downloading a few hours ago, I can already imagine how this app will change my life for the *much* better! I wish this had existed 10+ years ago..
Developer, one quick thing:
I’ve signed up for a premium trial, and though I’ve logged in on both my up-to-date iPhone and my up-to-date iPad, “Copy to Talking Scripts” never shows up in PDF share options, even in the extended options (“More”), on my iPad. It showed up immediately on iPhone, but even after restarting, removing and reinstalling, and such combinations of actions, still no go on iPad.
Would you pretty please look into this? Many thanks!
Wow!
This is AMAZING!!! Absolute finest screenplay reader I could ever imagine, and very easy to use!
Works great
I’ve tried maybe 4 different apps similar to this and this one works just as well if not better and it’s free. Thanks for making this app. Saves me time as I can drive or walk and listen to a script.
Hard Pass…
I totally respect Idris Elba but this app is pretty awful. I totally get those who have to read a pile scripts each week but hey that’s why we get paid the big bucks to do it. You’re just no going to feel the writers emotion or any beats of the script with this app. I tested an academy award winning script just for giggles and it just wasn’t the same, if I would have relied on the app it would have also been a hard pass. I just don’t think we’re there yet with this technology to really get the feel of narrative storytelling. If you have to rely on this then maybe you should reevaluate why you chose this profession in the first place.
For those that use it primarily to run lines then maybe I get why it could be somewhat useful.
Game Changer
I am married to a successful director, and often have to read her scripts to give feedback and notes. This app saves so much time, as I can now listen to scripts while driving/commuting to work, exercising or going for a hike. The option to change the pitch, tone and speed of the audio is fantastic, and really adds to the listening experience. Bravo!! 👏👏👏
Amazing app
This was exactly what I have been looking for. Whomever invented this should be commended on their foresight as to what directors need to get their work done and economise their lifestyle. I recommend this to anyone who has to read scripts for a living
