I am about to launch a teleprompter app called FlowPrompter. It may help you conveniently prompt during Zoom meetings, slide presentations, or livestreams. The audience can’t see it; only you can.
With it, you can start your speech immediately in front of the camera anytime, anywhere, delivering your presentation smoothly without having to memorize the script.
Would you need it? I can’t wait to hear your feedback and suggestions!

I’ve used a teleprompter a couple of times. It really helps keep my presentations smooth.

@nola_s_ro Thank you for considering it! 😊 If you don’t mind sharing, are there any specific reasons or challenges you find with using teleprompters currently? Your feedback would be really valuable to us!
I’ve thought about it, but I haven’t used a teleprompter for my Zoom meetings yet. Maybe I should try it.
@jo_seph_parker Thank you for your feedback! It’s definitely worth a try. 😊 Out of curiosity, are there any specific reasons or challenges that have kept you from using a teleprompter for your Zoom meetings so far? Your insights would be really helpful for us!
I haven’t tried using a teleprompter yet. I usually just rely on my notes.
@edward_mo_ore Thank you for sharing! Notes are definitely handy. If you ever decide to try a teleprompter, I’d love to hear your thoughts on how it compares. Do you find anything particularly inconvenient about using notes during your meetings?
Using a teleprompter can be helpful, but starting off without one might be better. In the beginning, your content may not be perfect, but over time, you'll improve and hone your skills.
@harshu_thaheed Good perspective! Professional skills are indeed crucial. Another perspective is that a teleprompter can help more people feel confident and professional right from the start.
I've used a DIY teleprompter setup for Zoom calls before and it definitely helped me present more smoothly without constantly glancing at my notes! Having an app designed for this would be super handy. A few thoughts: 1) Make it easy to import scripts/talking points 2) Allow text resizing and speed control 3) Enable hotkeys to start/pause. Curious to check out FlowPrompter when it launches!
@oliverjameshawthorne Thank you for your feedback! I’m glad to hear that your DIY teleprompter setup improved your presentations, and I appreciate that you find our app idea useful. Your suggestions are spot on! We’ve already considered these features in FlowPrompter: you’ll be able to easily resize text, adjust scrolling speed, and we’re planning to include hotkeys for easy control. We hope FlowPrompter will help you deliver even smoother presentations. I’m excited for you to try it out when we launch! If you have any more suggestions or needs, feel free to share!
