#PARROT TELEPROMPTER FREE#
Parrot also have their own free app for both iOS and Android, which many rate as being the best. Several apps are available to turn your phone into a teleprompter. The back also slides on and off easily, locking into place over the adapter on the front of your lens. The old cover used to clip on the front, whereas the new one simply slides on and off. One fantastic change since the original Parrot is the new cover that goes over the front. These hold it securely when you need it to, but also allow you to easily remove it for cleaning or replacement. The Parrot 2 holds the glass in with clip tabs along the edges of the glass. It made it difficult to take out to clean and very rough transport could potentially allow it to fall out. One of the issues reported with the original Parrot was the way in which the reflective glass was attached to the unit. The extra width also means you can shoot slightly wider than you could before without the Parrot appearing in the shot. The extra width of the new unit means that you’re not having to mess with margins to make it fit.
While larger phones like the iPhone 6S Plus or Galaxy S7 Edge will work with the original Parrot, it doesn’t quite utilise the entire screen. Well, they’ve listened to the feedback and have made some pretty big changes with the new Parrot 2.įor a start, as mobile phones have grown, so has the Parrot. The original Parrot Teleprompter was very successful, but it wasn’t perfect.
