APP STORE EDITORS' SELECTION
Built for actors, by an actor. The premier memorization tool for working actors, from Broadway to community theater, and all in between.
Getting off book is the hardest part of the job. It usually happens in the living room: your script in one hand, the other covering your lines.
That's how I memorized for years, and it never came easily. I would read the other lines and recite mine, never really listening. The words didn't stick because I wasn't thinking the thoughts.
With Line Run, you hear the scene instead of reading it. It speaks the line before yours and listens while you respond, so you hear your cue and think your way into the reply. You're thinking the thoughts and connecting the dots, and this time the words stick.
RECORD IT, OR IMPORT IT
Record the other characters yourself, once. It's the more lifelike way: your own pacing, your own pauses, each part pitched up or down so they sound like different people.
Or let Line Run Pro do the work. Import your script and every other part gets a natural-sounding voice, made right on your phone.
One is more lifelike, the other is less effort. Either way, it sounds like a cast running the scene with you.
BUILT FOR ACTORS, BY AN ACTOR
Hi, I'm Kelly. I've been in this industry for over 25 years, and memorizing is still a challenge. I built Line Run so that we can get off book sooner, with confidence, and rehearsal can be about the acting.
SIMPLE TO START, DEEP WHEN YOU WANT IT
If you can press play, you can use Line Run. Open a scene and start talking. If you go blank, say "Line, please" and it prompts you. When you want more, it's all there: loop a tricky section, fine-tune the line text, mark it up with notes about motivation, hide the lines to suit your learning style.
PRIVATE BY DESIGN
There is no account and nothing to sign up for. There are no ads and your data will never be sold to anyone. Your recordings stay on your phone, and the generated voices are made there too, not in a data centre.
FREE FOREVER
Line Run is free forever, and it's a complete tool, not a trial. It has everything you need for an audition or a less demanding role: one script of up to three scenes, recorded in your own voice, with every way to rehearse.
LINE RUN PRO
Unlock everything in the app:
• Import your scripts, even scanned pages or sides
• Natural-sounding voices for every other character, generated automatically
• Unlimited scripts and scenes
I know how tough it is out there for actors to make ends meet, so I've priced this low to cover costs, not to profit. An annual subscription, with a free trial to start. Cancel anytime.
Generated voices need a one-time download of about 330 MB. On iPhone 11 and earlier, and the 2nd-generation iPhone SE, Line Run uses the phone's built-in voices instead.

As a working actor in Las Vegas, I’ve tried several line-learning apps, and Line Run is by far the smoothest and most intuitive I’ve used. My favorite feature is that it actually listens to you and responds to your line, so you don’t feel like you have to rush just to keep up with the app. That’s incredibly helpful when you’re still memorizing, but it’s also great once you know the lines and want to work on delivery, timing, pauses, and choices.And as female actors of a certain age know, sometimes hormones decide to take your memory on an unexpected vacation. 😂 So having something this easy to practice with is especially appreciated!Definitely a great tool for actors.

Finally!

I’m a working actor on Broadway and on-camera, and I’ve tried just about every line running app, each of which has their strengths and shortcomings.Line Run finally addresses so many of the issues and frustration I’ve had with each of the other apps, and brings a number of new features to the table. I love the U.I, and the app is super simple to get up and running.I’m a Pro user, and I think the value for those features are absolutely worth it. It’s an app created for actors by an actor, and you can tell how much care and attention to detail the developer has baked into the app. Give it a try, I think you’ll love it as much as I do!

The best line learning tool
Go Wise
I’ve been using LR for the past year. It’s helped me get off book and STAY off-book for multiple roles and understudies. It’s like having a dedicated partner to run lines with wherever and whenever. The customizable features of the app are also very well thought out and powerful. If I need to add stage direction or have a line read in a different way to help mimic what’s actually happening on-stage/set I can do that! LR is in my toolbox for good!
