Email hello@getonscript.app with what you were doing, what you expected to happen, and which iPhone you have. I aim to reply within two working days.

Common questions

Is the script in my video?

No. Onscript records only the camera and microphone. The script, the timer and the buttons are on your screen, not in the recording.

Where do my videos go?

Straight into your Photos library when you stop recording. Onscript doesn't keep its own copy.

How do I get a script into Onscript?

Three ways. Tap + and choose New script to type one, Paste to use what you've copied, or Import from Files for a text, Markdown, RTF or PDF file. Or, in another app such as Notes, Pages or Mail, tap Share and choose Onscript; the script is waiting next time you open the app.

Onscript isn't in my Share sheet.

Scroll to the end of the row of apps in the Share sheet and tap More, then turn on Onscript. Onscript appears when you're sharing text or a document, not photos or web links on their own.

Can I import a Word document?

Not directly, as iOS can't read the text inside Word files. Open it, copy the text and use Paste, or export it as a PDF and import that.

How do I change the speed or text size?

While recording or before you start, tap the sliders button at the bottom of the screen. You can also change how much of the screen the script uses, and turn the countdown on or off. Onscript remembers your choices.

Can I pause or go back?

Tap the script to pause or carry on scrolling. Drag it up or down to move through the script. The circular arrow takes it back to the start.

Why did my recording stop at one minute?

Free takes stop at 60 seconds. The take so far is saved to Photos. The one-off unlock removes the limit.

What does the unlock include?

A single payment of £4.99 (no subscription) gives you takes of any length and as many scripts as you like. It's shared with your family through Family Sharing. If you change phone, tap Unlock and then Restore purchase.

Onscript asked to use the camera, microphone and Photos.

It needs the camera and microphone to record, and permission to add to Photos to save your video. It can't see the photos already in your library. You can change these in Settings, then Onscript.

Where are my scripts kept?

On your iPhone only. There's no account and nothing is uploaded. Deleting the app deletes your scripts, so keep a copy of anything important elsewhere.
