Settings Panels

Once you see your text, go to the settings panel and play around with the font size and window transparency. The font size matters, and will help with how you read your text along with the desired speed. The transparency matters and helps you see what’s behind the teleprompter app. Like a presentation or your audience.

A very key feature in the settings panel is the Keep Window On Top. By pressing this, the teleprompter app will sit on top of all open windows. Yes, video conferences included. You can also Lock the teleprompter app in place right below your computer’s camera. So it doesn’t move during your speech or presentation.

Control the work-from-home tool

Now with your desired font size and transparency level, it’s time to dive into your desired speed. VODIUM allows you to pick a speed that works for you. Make sure you practice your remarks at your chosen speed to make sure it works for you. You can also choose to control the text by using the Page Up and Page Down buttons. Or you can manually control the text by using the scroll bar. Then once you’re done with reading your speech or notes, you can use the Return to the Top and go all the way to the top.

Enjoy, Gracie.

Teleprompter App Tips

  • To find the desired font and speed that works for you, you can also add spaces to your text and adjust the teleprompter app’s window size. Adjust the text and window size which can help make the text easier to read with your chosen speed.
  • The work-from-home tool allows you to read your notes and look at your audience, but make sure you’re also at eye level with the camera. Add some books under the computer, or use a computer stand.
  • The teleprompter app is uniquely designed to sit on top of any video conference platform. Like Cisco Webex, Microsoft Teams, and Zoom. But the platforms don’t allow integration with outside apps when you are in Presenter’s Mode. To use VODIUM while also sharing your screen, either share your presentation as a PDF or on an internet browser window. But if you want a presentation with transitions and videos, then ask a teammate to share their screen so you can focus on VODIUM.
  • Once you download VODIUM, it lives on your desktop. Meaning that the teleprompter app does not need the internet. So when your video conference is shotty, VODIUM will still be there standing strong.
