How to use the PrompterPal APP [a.k.a. iCue or iAutocue] with the TeleprompterPAD remote in iOS
The Prompter Pal APP, also known as iAutocue or iCue , in our opinion is the best teleprompter application for iOS, it allows several remote control methods, compatible with TeleprompterPAD remote control.
Method 1: AirTurn Support in keyboard mode
With this method you can control the basic playback functions on iCue with the teleprompter remote control.
To activate this method do the following:
- In the tools menu (cogwheel) go to "Remote" and then select "Airturn Remote".
- Tap on the Bluetooth icon.
- Activate "AirTurn Support" and select "Keyboard".
After closing this menu you will be able to use the remote control joystick directions to:
- Right direction: play / pause
- Up direction: Rewind
- Left direction: Forward
NOTE: Down direction will increse speed but is not useful and not recommended to use, since there is no button that allows decrease speed
Method 2: Redefining keys (temporarily not recommended)
To activate this method we must interactively select which button on the teleprompter remote control is going to perform a certain function in the iCue app. It is a simple and intuitive task that you do only the first time and it is recorded forever.
In the following video we explain how to do it step by step and show the recommended functions for each button on the remote control.
Disclaimer: Unfortunately, recent changes in iOS no longer allow to store this configuration from one session to another, this forces to have to redefine the keys for each session, which makes this method uncomfortable and not recommended until the developers of this app decide to update it for work it out.
This is a paid APP, but if you are going to use it frequently it is worth it. The 3 App are the same, they are clones, however, because of brand licensing policies, the prices are different and they are changing often (5€-10€), so we recommend that you visit the 3 links and choose the cheapest one. You can download the different versions of this APP from the following links:
