Hardware-ready
The teleprompter app built for a mirror rig.
Beam-splitter glass reverses everything it reflects. Teleprompter Mirror Pro reverses the script first — horizontally, vertically, or both — so the text in the glass reads exactly the way you wrote it. Free on every plan.
Both axes, independently
Four orientations. All of them read correctly.
Most apps ship a single mirror toggle and assume your rig matches their assumption. Here the two axes are separate switches, which covers every way a phone can sit under a piece of glass.

The physics, briefly
Why the text has to be backwards.
A beam-splitter — sometimes called a two-way mirror or teleprompter glass — is a sheet of glass with a partial mirror coating. It sits at 45° between you and the lens, and it does two jobs at once. It reflects your phone screen upward into your eyeline, and it lets the camera see through it to film your face.
That reflection is the catch. Every mirror swaps left and right, so a script that reads correctly on the phone reads backwards in the glass. The fix is to draw the script backwards on the phone in the first place: two reversals cancel, and what you read in the glass is the right way round.
The camera never sees any of this. It is looking through the glass at you, not at the reflection, so your recording comes out exactly as it should — no flipped shirt logos, no reversed lettering behind you.
Setup
Setting up a mirror rig, start to finish.
About five minutes the first time, and roughly thirty seconds every time after.
- 1
Mount the phone in the rig
Slide the phone into the hood so the screen faces the underside of the angled glass. Most rigs mount it face-up on a shelf; some hang it face-down above the glass.
- 2
Open the script and start a session
Choose Teleprompter-only mode if a separate camera is doing the filming, or Video mode if the phone is both prompter and camera.
- 3
Open Settings and turn on Mirror horizontally
The text reverses on screen. Look at the reflection in the glass — it now reads normally. If your rig mounts the phone inverted, also switch on Mirror vertically.
- 4
Set the frame shape to match your glass
Narrow the readable window so no line runs off the edge of the reflection, and raise the text size until you can read it comfortably from your speaking position.
- 5
Set the reading band and rehearse one paragraph
Check that your eyes stay in a single spot rather than tracking down the glass. If they wander, increase the text size and shorten the line length.
Beyond the flip
A rig needs more than a mirrored font.
Reading off glass is harder than reading off a screen — the contrast is lower and the distance is longer. These are the controls that make it comfortable.
Reading size to 52pt and beyond
A rig puts the text an arm’s length away and dims it through the glass. The size range goes well past what a hand-held phone needs.
Adjustable frame shape
Narrow the readable window to match your glass so lines never run off the edge of the reflection.
Fixed reading band
A marked zone your eyes stay in, rather than tracking down the page — which is what keeps you looking at the lens.
Countdown cue
Three, two, one before the scroll starts, so you are settled before the first word moves.
Teleprompter-only mode
When a proper camera is filming, the phone is purely a prompter and records nothing at all.
Remote control
Once the phone is buried in a hood you cannot reach it. Drive it from a second phone instead.
Mirror rigs
Questions about mirroring.
The ones we actually get asked, answered properly.
Why does teleprompter text need to be mirrored?
What is the difference between horizontal and vertical mirroring?
Does mirror mode work with any teleprompter hardware?
Do I need Pro to use mirror mode?
Can I use mirror mode without a rig?
Can I record video while the text is mirrored?
