coldRead 4+

Exactly what I needed.

Thank you for making this app. It is amazing. I’m practicing at the moment with my daughter, reading lines, staying in character is nearly impossible.
This is perfect, the mountain I have to climb looks so much smaller now.
It’s easy to use and the best part, is that it’s on my phone, not only saving me from carrying my bulky folder around, I can get better faster doubling my practice time by already having my scripts with me when I get a rare spare moment, like stuck in traffic or waiting for my daughter while she’s at tennis.
I’ve only just started using this app but I can see how it will help In speeding up the time it takes me to memorise my lines.
Thank you all again.

Many warm regards
Christine Cameron

Thank you so much! 
We work really hard to make the best possible app for actors. The more you use it more you'll learn to fine-tune it to your liking and it will perform even better. Speech recognition improves dramatically with use. 
Please email us if you need help with anything at support@coldreadapp.com. 
Thank you again for taking the time to leave us such a nice review.

ALMOST the perfect app for running lines

I love using this app, it’s perfect for when I have no one to rehearse with; the only thing that really bugs me is that a monthly subscription to this app is more than a subscription to most streaming platforms & I can’t even use it when I turn my iPad Pro sideways to try and use the keyboard attached; meaning I can’t really use it’s teleprompter features properly and I can’t use it to self tape. Another thing that would be great is if we were able to shorten the voice clips after recording them to get the exact timing needed for fast paced scenes.
ALMOST perfect!

Will give 5 stars when these features are available!

Developer Response ,

Thank you so much for taking the time to write such an amazing review. We added two new features and they address the things you mentioned. Lines are now trimmed and landscape mode works on iPads. Hopefully, we will earn a star from you. We work hard daily to make coldRead even better and are always happy to hear user's feedback. Reach out if you have any suggestions at feedback@coldreadapp.com. Again, thank you.

This was almost perfect

This is currently the best app for actors to learn lines in my opinion. I’ve used it for a couple projects already.
That was, however, until introducing a subscription. Now the free version is virtually useless with its limitations, and with only 8 lines and 2 folders, and as a OG user I’ve found myself not bothering to open the app anymore.
And the subscription price itself is not very appealing. If it was a one-off purchase for a “pro” version, I’d absolutely buy it in a heartbeat.
This is a great tool for learning lines on the go. But please, lighten the restrictions for the free version.

I would also note, it seems to not recognise AirPod or other wireless headphone microphones, so I find myself having to hold my phone up close to my face for it to hear the cue lines, rather than being able to leave the phone and move around.
