Features & Capabilities

DigiSlate is a modern, free digital slate / clapperboard for iPad, iPhone and iPod Touch. DigiSlate uses either a swipe across the board or the volume buttons on your device to clap the board. This allows you to keep your hands well out of the way when the slate claps. DigiSlate uses the whole screen for the clappers for easier sync on smaller devices.

Features

  • Full screen clapper board - works great on smaller phones for easier sync in post
  • Music Mode (in-app purchase) syncs music from your local library or right from your inbox and changes speed in real-time!
  • Counts in frames and supports regular and drop frame timecodes... or enter your own
  • Edit every title on the slate to fully customise DigiSlate to work best for you
  • Save and Load Slates - re-entering details for different shoots is history
  • Swipe across or use the volume buttons to clap the board
  • Double tap the text on the board to edit the slate
  • Drag up and down (or double tap) on Slate, Roll, Scene, Take, FPS and Camera to change
  • Two finger drag up and down on Scene for USA format (4A, $B, 4C etc)
  • Date and Time come straight from your device so no need to enter manually
  • Take will go green to indicate that the board has been clapped, and can auto-increment
  • Choose either a traditional black slate or white clapperboard
  • Time of day, shoot time (to 1/100th second) for reference or Scene Name L.E.D. style display. Now shows Shoot Timecode as well.
  • 4 different sounds for sync - Clap, Beep (1kHz tone), White Noise or Pip (1 frame 1khz tone for SyncOne2 and Multi-Camera sync checking
  • Sync Mode run flash/beep cycle for Multi-Cam shoots or general audio video sync checking
  • Auto Take auto-increments the Take each clap the board
  • Triple Clap option to clap the slate 3 times for easier sync in noisy environments

No more fiddling around with small on-screen buttons or awkward user interfaces - DigiSlate is easy to use even on the smaller display of an iPhone/iPod Touch and looks fantastic on the larger screen of your iPad and simply stunning on the iPad Pro.

DigiSlate is the free digital clapperboard you've been waiting for.

User Reviews

Reviews consistently praise DigiSlate for speeding up production, aiding audio/video synchronization, and offering editable slate fields and environment-friendly display options. However, users repeatedly complain about ads in the free version, insufficient clapper visibility/volume for syncing, and slate management issues (no easy way to save/rename multiple slates). Date/time and frame-rate handling are also problematic, and updates can worsen the experience. Overall, DigiSlate is valued for workflow efficiency, but its usability and monetization model in the free version are major drawbacks.
Pros
  • Saves time on set and speeds up production (especially for indie shoots).
  • Helps with audio/video synchronization via clap cues and color-coded take numbers.
  • Editable slate fields (titles/scene/take) for better organization.
  • Triple-clap mode and adjustable slate colors for different environments (lighting/noise).
  • Text on the slate can be embedded into the raw video for logging.
Cons
  • Free version includes ads, and ads can play audio during shoots.
  • Clapper cue disappears too quickly and the clap/tones are too quiet for reliable syncing.
  • Cannot easily create, duplicate, or rename multiple slates; slate/project management is unreliable.
  • Dates and frame rates are not editable or are shown incorrectly, causing mismatches.
  • Updates can significantly change the UX or reintroduce ads, frustrating users.

This app is everything i needed and more but syncing audio is hard with the clap vanishing the second it claps. If it remained on screen for a second after the clap it would make it a thousand times easier for audio syncing. That is really my only pet peeve with it and I use it daily on the film sets that I am apart of. I have recommended it to a few of my friends and even the directors have said it has sped up production with us no longer having to find an EXPO marker.

It’s definitely worth it for video productions and especially indie work
