The ProPrompter App integrates with both iPhone and iPad and your iPhone becomes the remote control to allow the on camera talent to control the speed of the scrolling text.

It's very easy to set up and use. The iPad and iPhone remote combo works like a charm, It's so easy to use. The bracket that hold the iPad only appears to fit the landscape direction of the iPad but I found that placing it on the portrait setting condenses the text more to the center and reduces the eyes from appears to move across the screen and reading. However, I have to lay the iPad on top of the bracket, which makes it unsecured. Although it works for stationary positions it won't be practical for mobile situations and in the field. Over all, however, a great value for what it does and I find it as functional as much more expensive units.

This is an excellent compact teleprompter that will meet the needs of most productions. Additionally, it is priced very competitively which makes it a great value. Our company uses the ProPrompter HDi to assist speakers during on-camera scripted interviews. It works great with the ProPrompter App that is available through iTunes. The only fault that we've encountered so far is that the focus ring on some cameras may be hard to use or not usable at all due to the lens opening on the hood/mirror box. This issue can be resolved by adjusting the focus first and then securing the lens opening on the hood/mirror box. Overall, this is a great product and has the capability of significantly increasing production quality.

Very easy to setup and use. The case is good also. I use this prompter with a canon 5D2 rather than a standard camcorder, it's usable with a wide variety of lenses and cameras. The iPhone makes a surprisingly good remote control. The text is very readable. This thing really works well.

We recently rented an old teleprompter system and we were rather frustrated by how cumbersome and heavy the multi-piece adventure was. We were charmed by the idea of Proprompter and, in the end, it was THE excuse for getting an iPad (finally!) given the cost of similar systems.
Worked like a charm. Very customizable software... Very intuitive. No steep learning curve.
make sure your iPhone has no cases when controlling the PP as it will interfere with Bluetooth.
One thing that was a bit of s surprise was the lens MUST sit on a close, parallel plane to the mount. If you camera has a battery pack like we do you have to ditch it.
Also due to a minor compatibility with their mount and my faceplate I was forced to mount the system backwards on my tripod to get it to fit.

A future version of this mirror mount should include the ability to tilt the mirror by just a couple of degrees up or down depending on who is reading it.

Software does not EXACTLY show the same formatting between devices. So be careful when formatting. Read more on iTunes about reviews and quirks of this.
Despite little blips, this is a VERY welcome addition to our lineup.

Combine with Ipad and ProPrompter app for a great setup. I use this to record short video ads where the talent is asked to say no more than 5 or 6 sentences. This will save a lot of time with multiple takes and sorting through during editing...just look into the lens and read. Very happy with this.
