Teleprompter with highlighting
Words fill with colour at the pace you set. Pauses, emphasis, slow-downs and tempo changes go right in the text.
An app by BR-Tech · iPhone, iPad and Apple Watch
Read your script.
Record it clean.
Vlogger Buddy is a teleprompter and recording studio for creators who read their own text. Words highlight as you read, you record video or audio, and when you slip up you go back a sentence. Captions build themselves and the finished video comes out in the right shape for Reels, TikTok and YouTube.
3 days free, then €4.99 per month or €29.99 per year. No sign-up, your recordings stay on your device.
What it does
One script. Video, audio and captions.
The app is built around one idea: if we know what you were supposed to say, we also know when, and that lets us fix, trim and caption the recording.
“Top” mode and mirroring
The text stays next to the lens so you look at the camera. Mirror for a real teleprompter rig, adjustable size, font and focus blur.
Sentence-level corrections
Made a mistake? Go back a sentence and read it again, the old take is replaced. On Apple Watch one tap takes you back to the last pause and you keep recording.
Video or audio only
Front or back camera from 720p to 4K, lens choice, exposure and tap to focus. Microphone: built-in, USB or Bluetooth.
Precise trimming
Waveform, a cursor with millisecond nudging, snap to silence and trimming of the start and end. You hear the result before you save it.
Captions from what you read
Captions follow what you actually read. Burn them into the video (font, colour, size, position) or export an SRT file.
Formats for Reels, TikTok and YouTube
9:16, 4:5, 1:1 and 16:9, with a preview in the exact shape of the final video. Save to Photos, copy description and hashtags.
Scripts in the Files app
A library that is your own Vlogger Buddy folder. Import from Word, PDF, RTF and text, paste from the clipboard, quickly turn plain text into a script.
Apple Watch remote
Start and stop recording, go back to the last pause or jump to the next sentence from your wrist. You can also control it from a second iPhone or iPad.
Preview
Recording and trimming in one place.
On iPad there is room for the text, the camera preview, the waveform and the fine trimming tools.
