Teleprompter for TikTok and Reels

If you post to TikTok or Reels regularly, the hard part is not the idea, it is saying it cleanly in one take. A teleprompter you can set to your own pace fixes that, and on iPhone you can run it inside the same app that records and edits the clip.

Why a pace-it-yourself prompter is different

Most teleprompter apps scroll your text at a fixed speed. You set a number, hit record, and then spend the whole take trying to match the machine. Speak faster than the scroll and you run out of screen. Pause to breathe and the text keeps sliding past. That is why so many people give up and just memorize a few lines.

Reelvana lets you set the scroll to a reading speed on a words-per-minute slider (80 to 360), so you match the scroll to how you actually talk rather than the other way around. Dial it to a comfortable pace, size the text, and pick the text color, and you can read a full talking-head TikTok or Reel and still sound like you are talking, not reading.

Look at the lens, not the corner

The other thing that gives away a scripted video is where your eyes go. Reelvana's prompter is a glass overlay over the live camera preview, so your script sits close to the lens and your gaze stays near camera instead of drifting to a corner. You set the font size and the text color so it is easy to read at arm's length, and it stays out of the way while you record.

Keep your music playing while you film

Trend audio and backing tracks matter on TikTok and Reels, and most camera apps kill your music the moment you press record. Reelvana uses a mix-with-others audio session, so your song keeps playing out loud while you film and read. You can catch the beat, match your energy to the track, and record in HD at the same time.

From prompter to posted, in one app

The prompter is one piece of a full pipeline that runs on your phone. After you record, you can cut the dead air and filler words, generate captions from your speech, trim 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. There is no export-and-reimport between six different apps, and your video never leaves your phone along the way.

How to record a scripted TikTok or Reel

1. Write or paste your script. Keep it conversational and short. Hooks land harder when they sound spoken.
2. Set your scroll speed. Use the words-per-minute slider to match your natural pace, and size the text so you can read it at arm's length.
3. Start your music if you want a track playing, then hit record. Reelvana keeps the audio going.
4. Read it through. Set a pace that lets you breathe naturally, and nudge the slider between takes until it feels right.
5. Clean it up. Cut silences, add captions, and post, all without leaving the app.

Bilingual and Arabic creators

The teleprompter works in English and Arabic, with right-to-left layout for Arabic, so it is not an afterthought bolted on. If you switch between languages in your content, the prompter and the captions both keep up. There is a dedicated Arabic teleprompter walkthrough if that is your main language.

Can I keep looking at the camera?

Yes. The prompter is a glass overlay over the live camera preview, so your script sits close to the lens and your eyes stay near camera instead of drifting to a corner.
