## Description

PromptSmart Pro Remote Control is an optional, companion app to the PromptSmart Pro teleprompter app (subscription required) that lets you control the scrolling of your content with a simple tap of your finger to move it forward or backward, start/stop your presentations, and return to the beginning via a WIFI connection or mobile hotspot.

The Remote Control allows you to mirror the screen of your prompter display so that the content of the teleprompter display can be viewed and re-positioned from a distance.

Two iOS devices with a history of connection will learn each other and connect more easily afterwards. If the remote screen sleeps, the connection will automatically be re-established once the remote control app is made active again (after a few moments).

## Review summary

Users repeatedly report connectivity/pairing problems and high latency with the PromptSmart Pro Remote, along with stability issues and crashes. Pricing and ongoing subscription costs are a major gripe, and several reviews note a lack of updates. A minority do share positive experiences when support helps and the feature works on local networks. Overall, the remote has potential to save time but suffers from inconsistent performance and ongoing cost concerns.

### Pros

- When it works, the remote control can save significant production time by allowing the user to stay seated while controlling the teleprompter.
- Works over a local network without server infrastructure, avoiding cloud dependencies.
- Some users report helpful setup guidance from PromptSmart support and a smoother setup once configured.

### Cons

- Frequent connectivity and pairing failures; devices often fail to connect or be discovered.
- High latency and unreliable scrolling when connected, causing delays or mis-synced text.
- Stability issues and crashes; the app can stop working or require restarts, sometimes unpredictably.
- Remote pricing model and subscription requirements, with some reports of price increases and poor perceived value.
- Lack of timely updates and slow bug fixes reported by users.
