How can we help?

TakeReady doesn't scroll. It shows one paragraph at a time and only moves on when you tap Next, so you can repeat a line as many times as you need until you get it right.

Open the script editor and type or paste your text. Leave a blank line between paragraphs. Each paragraph is shown on its own card.

Tap Next to go to the next paragraph and Back to return to the previous one. The counter at the top (for example "1 of 3") shows where you are.

While recording, you can also tap the pause button in the bottom-left corner. TakeReady moves to the next paragraph automatically, and the timer turns orange until you tap play to continue.

Use the Text size slider in the script editor, or tap the small and large A buttons on the script card while recording.

Tap the rotate button in the top-left corner of the camera screen. You can keep holding your phone upright while it records widescreen video. This option is only available on iPhone models that support it.

Tap the camera-flip button next to the record button to switch between the front and back cameras. Tap 0.5× or 1 above the record button to change lenses.

Go to Settings > Privacy & Security > Camera (and Microphone) on your iPhone and make sure TakeReady is turned on. Then close and reopen the app.

Recordings are saved on your device. If saving to your Photos library fails, check Settings > Privacy & Security > Photos and allow access for TakeReady.

You can use TakeReady for free. Premium is an optional upgrade you can buy in the app. Purchases are handled by Apple through your Apple Account.

To restore Premium on a new device, use Restore Purchases in the app. Subscriptions can be managed or cancelled in Settings > [your name] > Subscriptions. For refunds, visit reportaproblem.apple.com.
