An Arabic teleprompter app that scrolls at your pace

Most teleprompters treat Arabic as an afterthought. Reelvana auto-scrolls your script at a reading speed you set on a words-per-minute slider, lays the text out right to left, and runs on the device, so your video never leaves your phone.

Why Arabic teleprompters usually feel wrong

Two things break most Arabic prompters. The first is layout. Arabic reads right to left, and a lot of apps were built for English first, so the text wraps oddly, the alignment fights you, or the letters do not join the way they should. Reading feels like work before you have even hit record.

The second is pace. A scroll that runs too fast leaves you racing it; too slow and you are waiting on it. The fix is control: a words-per-minute slider so you can dial the scroll to your natural reading speed, and adjustable font size so the text is easy to read at arm's length.

How the auto-scroll prompter works

Reelvana's teleprompter overlays your script on the recording screen and scrolls it steadily while you record. You set the reading speed on a words-per-minute slider (80 to 360), so you dial in a pace that matches how you naturally talk instead of racing a scroll that is too fast or waiting on one that is too slow.

You also set the font size and the text color, and Arabic is laid out right to left automatically. Scripts you write or paste can be saved to a searchable library, so a prompt you use often is one tap away next time. Everything runs on the device.

Right-to-left, done properly

Arabic script in Reelvana is laid out right to left with correct letter joining, so it reads the way it should on the page. You set the reading speed on a words-per-minute slider (80 to 360), choose the font size, and pick the text color, all without leaving the take.

Captions in Arabic too

Reading your script is only half the job. When the take is done, Reelvana can transcribe your Arabic speech on the device with Whisper and burn captions into the video at export. The captions lay out right to left, you pick from a range of styles including a per-word karaoke highlight, and you can choose a larger speech model for higher accuracy on your dialect. That on-device transcription runs on the phone, so your video never leaves it. For the highest Arabic accuracy you can switch on optional cloud captions, which send only the recording's audio track to our server, never the video.

Your video stays on your phone

Your video stays on your device. The teleprompter, the recording, the editing, and the watermarking all run locally, and captions transcribe on the phone by default, so your video never leaves it. The one exception is optional cloud captions: switch them on and Reelvana sends the recording's audio track, never the video, to our server for higher Arabic accuracy. If you would rather keep everything local for religious, educational, or client content, leave cloud captions off and the whole flow stays on the phone.

More than a prompter

The Arabic teleprompter is one step in a single flow. In the same app you record with your music still playing, cut the dead air and filler, edit on a real editing timeline, blur or replace the background, add a watermark, and export your video to share it to any app through the system share sheet. No app-switching and no re-exports.

Common questions

Is there a teleprompter app that follows your voice in Arabic?

Reelvana's teleprompter is an auto-scroll overlay you pace yourself, not a voice tracker. It scrolls your script while you record, and you set the reading speed on a words-per-minute slider (80 to 360), the font size, and the text color. Arabic reads right to left automatically, and you can save scripts to a searchable library. It scrolls at the speed you choose rather than listening and advancing to what you say.

Does the Arabic teleprompter work offline?

Yes. The teleprompter, recording, on-device captions, and editing all run on the device, so the prompter keeps working in airplane mode and your video never leaves your phone.

Can I record video while the teleprompter runs?

Yes. The prompter floats over the live camera preview while you record, so you read and film at once in HD, and your music can keep playing.

Does it handle Gulf, Egyptian, or Levantine dialects?

The teleprompter displays whatever Arabic you write, in any dialect, laid out right to left, and auto-scrolls it at the pace you set. It does not listen to your speech, so there is no dialect recognition to get wrong. For captions after recording, on-device transcription handles Arabic, with optional cloud captions.

Is it free?

Pro unlocks a custom watermark or no watermark, premium transitions, background effects, premium caption styles and animations, unlimited cloud captions, and unlimited AI script generation, available monthly, yearly with a 3-day trial, or as a one-time lifetime purchase.
