How it works

Prompting on a computer, in four steps.

No setup file and no account to create: your Google account signs you in, and the script is saved to it so you can open it again on any computer.

01

Open it in your browser

Go to teleprompter.filmdistrictdubai.com in Chrome, Edge, Safari or Firefox and sign in with Google.

02

Paste your script

Type it in, or paste it from Word, Google Docs or an email. Bold, italics and right-to-left text are all supported.

03

Set it up for your camera

Pick the text size, line spacing, side margins and scroll speed. Mirror it if it goes into a teleprompter glass.

04

Press Space and read

Space starts and pauses, the arrow keys change the speed, and full screen hides everything but your words.

Reading on a laptop

Keep your eyes on the lens.

On a laptop the camera sits at the top of the screen. Put the words right under it and the people watching see you looking at them, not at your notes.

  • Narrow the text. Wider side margins keep the lines short, so your eyes move less and it doesn't look like you're reading.
  • Use the eyeline. A reading line marks where you are, in the colour and thickness you like.
  • Go full screen. Only the script stays on screen. Double-click or press Escape to come back.
  • Jump between parts. Add tags to your script, then use the left and right arrow keys to move between them.

Works with what you record on

Use it next to Zoom, OBS or your camera app.

The prompter is a browser window, so it works with whatever is recording you: Zoom, Teams, Google Meet, OBS, QuickTime, the Windows Camera app, or a camera on a tripod. Put it beside your recording window, or drag it onto a second monitor.

Questions

Teleprompter on a PC: questions.

Do I need to download anything?
No. It runs in your browser. If you'd like an icon on your desktop or taskbar, install it from your account menu in Chrome or Edge; it is the same app, in its own window.
Does it work on Windows, Mac and Chromebook?
Yes. Any computer with an up-to-date browser works: Windows, macOS, ChromeOS and Linux.
Is it free?
Yes. The teleprompter is free: write your script, scroll it, mirror it, and change the size and speed. The phone remote has a free 30-minute trial. Pro keeps the remote on, adds more screens, and lets you share scripts with other Pro accounts.
Can I use it during a Zoom or Teams call?
Yes. Open the prompter in a window next to the call, as close to your camera as you can, and keep the text narrow so your eyes don't travel far.
What are the keyboard shortcuts?
When you're not editing the text: Space plays and pauses, Shift + Space goes back to the start, the up and down arrows change the speed, the left and right arrows jump between tags, and Escape leaves full screen.
Can I mirror the text for a teleprompter glass?
Yes. You can flip the text horizontally, vertically, or both, for beam-splitter glass and camera rigs.
