Hover Prompt by Digisync
You talk.
It follows.
A lean teleprompter for anyone recording to camera, on a call, or presenting. Speak naturally, without memorizing a script or looking away from the lens.
The script follows your voice, word for word, on iPhone, iPad, and Mac. There is no scroll speed to set. Pause, and it waits.
Free with the demo script. Launch offer: $9.99 once, on iPhone, iPad, and Mac, for the first 1,000 buyers. Launch pricing; lifetime buyers keep everything.
Welcome. Read this out loud, in your own time, and watch what happens. This is not a script that scrolls on its own. It listens as you speak, and the highlight follows the words you say.
The scroll never has your pace.
What gets in the way
A timed scroller runs ahead or lags behind. Your eyes leave the lens while you look for your place.
How it feels
You feel awkward, you lose your place, and you start another retake.
What should be true
You shouldn't have to read at a machine's pace.
On your device
A prompter that listens.
Recording to camera, taking a call, or presenting is hard enough when the words are ready and your eyes are somewhere else. Hover Prompt stays with the sentence you are actually saying.
Digisync built it as a lean teleprompter. Apple's speech recognition runs on your iPhone, iPad, or Mac and matches what you say to your script, word for word. Names and unusual words from your script are given to the recognizer as hints, so they are easier to match. Skip a word or speed up, and it catches up.
No account. Your scripts stay on your device. Your voice is not recorded, saved, or sent anywhere. Anonymous usage stats only, never your scripts or voice, and you can turn stats off in Settings.

Start with the demo.
Unlock your scripts.
The bundled demo is free. Read it out loud and watch the highlight follow your voice. Your own scripts stay locked until you unlock Hover Prompt.
iPhone and iPad
Your script. Next to the lens.
Press Play, then open Camera or another app you record video with. Your script appears in a floating window, using Picture in Picture, that you can drag next to the lens. It only comes up while you are reading, not when the script is paused.
Hover Prompt does not record the video. You record in the camera app you already use. A green mic meter shows that Hover Prompt can hear you.
Hands full? Just say Hover.
Voice commands are on iPhone and iPad only. Say a trigger word, then a command, so your hands stay free while you record. The default is Hover, then go to start, go to end, next sentence, or previous sentence. You can change the trigger word and the phrases in Settings.
Mac
Reads from the notch.
Your script sits right under the camera. Island mode hangs it from the notch on MacBooks that have one. Classic mode shows a floating card under the menu bar, for Macs without a notch or for an external display. Hover over the prompter to show Play and the other controls. It lives in the menu bar, with no Dock icon.
Keyboard shortcuts
Speech keeps running when you hide the prompter. Settings lists these shortcuts.
- Hide or show: Control-Option-Command-H
- Restart from the top: Control-Option-Command-R
- Jump back a sentence: Control-Option-Command-B
- Jump forward a sentence: Control-Option-Command-N
On your screen. Not in the share.
The prompter tries to stay out of screen sharing and recording. This is always on. It is best effort only: some apps and newer versions of macOS still show it, so check a capture before you rely on it.
Yours to set
Your highlight. Your color.
Choose a highlight color from presets, including yellow, or pick a custom color. Adjust the font, size, and spacing, with a live preview.
Keep your scripts in a library and switch between them. On iPhone and iPad, recent scripts sit on the Home screen. On Mac, they are in Settings, under Scripts.
What a fighting scroll costs
Stilted takes. Wasted retakes. A look that drops off the lens and into a notes app, while the words keep moving without you.
Eyes up. One take.
You speak in your own time. The highlight stays with the word you are saying. You look at the lens, and the take feels like you: confident, natural, and finished in one go.
Fewer retakes
The prompter waits when you pause and catches up when you skip.
Eyes on the lens
The script sits next to the camera, so you look at the lens, not a notes app.
