SmoothCue vs Teleprompter.com
Short answer. Teleprompter.com is the broader tool: iPhone, iPad and Mac, live streaming, remote control, subtitles, and VoiceGlide voice scrolling, with Pro sold as a subscription (from $89.99 a year on its listing, weekly plans too). SmoothCue does one thing, reading to the camera on iPhone, and you can unlock it with a single purchase.
Choose SmoothCue if…
- You don’t want another subscription.
- You record on iPhone and want the script as short cards under the lens.
- You want to try a full take for free, with every feature.
Choose Teleprompter.com if…
- You need Mac or iPad, live streaming or a remote device.
- You want subtitles generated from your script.
- You use a DockKit gimbal.
