What Runlines does, feature by feature
Runlines is an iPhone app for memorizing lines. It reads every other character's lines out loud, hides yours until you ask, and keeps track of which of your lines are off book. Below is every feature, with what the free version includes and what Runlines Pro adds.
The four parts of the app
Scene partner voices Free
The other parts read aloud with your iPhone's built-in voices, then a wait at each of your lines. One partner voice for free; a different voice for each character with Pro.
How the reading worksRecord mode Pro
Hold a button and say each of your lines once. Play the scene back with your own voice in your spots and the other parts read around it.
Rehearse with your own voiceCue-only runs Pro
Only the last three words before each of your lines are spoken, so you practice coming in on the cue instead of waiting for a whole speech.
Drill your cuesOff book, learning, shaky Free
Every one of your lines gets a mark after each run, and a plan counts runs down to your date. Mastery per script and run history with Pro.

Pro options stay visible in the free version with a lock badge or a blurred preview, so you can see what each one is before deciding. Tapping one opens the Runlines Pro screen; closing it puts you back where you were. Nothing you made in the free version is ever locked. Prices are on the pricing page.
What every version does the same way
- Everything stays on your iPhone. Scripts are read on the phone, lines are spoken by the phone, and recordings are saved on the phone. Nothing you paste is uploaded.
- No account. There is no sign-up, email, or password. Open the app and add a script.
- It works offline. Importing, running, recording, and the Progress tab all work in airplane mode. A connection is only needed to buy or restore Runlines Pro.
