Microsoft Teams teleprompter
Keep the call.
Keep your place.
Teams can use the iPad microphone for the meeting while a nearby iPhone listens locally for AdLibly. Your prompt stays with your delivery without taking audio away from the call.
Why Teams changes the setup
A teleprompter that keeps pace with your delivery needs to hear your position in the script. During a Teams call, Microsoft Teams may already be using the iPad microphone. Mobile operating systems protect that audio path, so another app cannot always listen at the same time.
AdLibly’s iPhone Companion gives each device one clear job. Teams stays on the iPad. The nearby iPhone listens locally and tells the iPad where you are in the prompt.
For the cleanest call, use headphones with the iPad. That keeps remote voices from reaching the nearby iPhone and moving the prompt.
Set up a Teams presentation
- Open your script in AdLibly on iPad and start presentation mode.
- Open iPhone Companion on a nearby iPhone and connect it to the presentation.
- Join the Teams meeting on iPad and use AirPods or other headphones for the call.
- Place the prompt close to the camera and speak normally.
Designed for a live conversation
A Teams meeting includes questions, pauses, chat and screen sharing. AdLibly lets the prompt wait for you rather than assuming the conversation will follow a fixed speed. You can leave the prepared wording and return when the discussion is ready.
