Padcaster Parrot Pro Reviews

Broke before first use

The bottom tray of the prompter is attached the housing with on 4 small points of plastic the size of a pencil tip. It's so fragile I don't even know why they bothered making this. Mine broke taking it out of the case it came in! Find another solution because this is not it!

It seems the Padcaster teleprompter falls short when paired with a 24mm lens, particularly in fast-paced, run-and-gun situations. The smartphone tray often appears in the frame, even with my iPhone 13’s case removed, requiring a lot of tinkering to make it work. I’ve had to loosen screws and add weights just to get it barely usable, which isn’t ideal for quick setups. Additionally, the teleprompter hood has a frustratingly small margin for error—if it’s not adjusted precisely, parts of it show up in the frame. This becomes especially challenging in poor lighting or time-sensitive scenarios where I can’t spend minutes fine-tuning everything only to still get it wrong because I lighting was poor. A slightly larger design and a more flexible tray would make a huge difference, providing more room for error and ease of use. For something marketed as compatible with 24mm lenses, I expected better performance without so much hassle. This could’ve been a perfect teleprompter otherwise

Doesn't seem to work with Android 14 devices. Is there a restriction on Android versions for the remote?
