One beat per card. Never lose your place.
Notes apps were not built for speaking. Cue Cards puts each beat on its own card, on a black screen made for stages, podiums and studios. Tap or swipe to move on. No scrolling, no squinting at a document.
- Text sizes itself to fill the screen, from S to XL
- Portrait or landscape, with a next-card hint
- Your screen stays awake while you speak

Timers that keep you on pace.
Give the whole talk a time slot and every story its own budget. The clock shifts colour as time runs down, and the screen flashes, silently, when a card is out of time.
- One deck timer, counting up or down
- Per-card targets, like "this story gets 90 seconds"
- Pause, reset or jump to any card mid-talk

Write it like a note. Play it like a prompter.
Type your beats the way you already take notes. Bold the punchline, colour the line you can't miss, and drag cards into the order that works.
- Bold, italics, colours and bullets
- Touch and hold to reorder cards
- Hit Play and you're on

Questions
What is the best way to use notes for a speech on my phone?
Break your speech into short beats and put one beat on each card. Cue Cards shows each card in huge text on a black screen, so a single glance tells you what comes next. Tap or swipe to move on, and you never lose your place.
Is Cue Cards a teleprompter app?
It is a speech notes app that works like a prompter for your talking points. Instead of a script scrolling at a fixed speed, you get one card per beat and move at your own pace, which suits toasts, interviews and talks where you speak naturally rather than read.
Can I use it for a wedding toast or best man speech?
Yes. It comes with a sample best man speech, a countdown timer keeps you inside your time slot, and the screen stays awake the whole time you are speaking.
Does Cue Cards have a speech timer?
Yes. One deck timer counts up or down for the whole talk, each card can have its own target time, the clock changes colour as time runs down, and the screen flashes silently when a card is out of time.
Is Cue Cards free?
It is free to download. You can write as many decks as you like and play the first three cards of any deck for free. A one-time unlock plays every deck at full length, with no subscription.
Do I need an account or an internet connection?
No. There is no account, nothing is tracked, and your decks stay on your iPhone or iPad. The AI that turns your notes into cards runs on your device with Apple Intelligence.
