Teleprompter for Webex Meetings
Deliver Webex presentations without reading off a second window. On Mac, GoTeleprompter floats above the meeting, docks under your camera, and can be hidden from screen sharing. On Windows, the free web teleprompter floats beside Webex.
Below: the setup with the GoTeleprompter Mac app, how Hide from Screen Sharing behaves in Webex, and the free web teleprompter option for Windows and Chromebook. New to Voice Follow? The script scrolls as you speak and waits when you pause.
How to use a teleprompter with Webex on Mac
- Open your script in GoTeleprompter for Mac and turn on Float on Top so it stays above Webex, even in full screen.
- Choose Move Below Camera to dock the script as a strip right under your webcam.
- Check that Hide from Screen Sharing is on (it is by default).
- Start Voice Follow and speak. The script moves at your pace and waits when you pause.
- Before going live, do a quick test share or test recording in Webex to confirm the prompter is not visible.
Is the prompter hidden in Webex?
Hide from Screen Sharing is on by default and keeps the prompter out of screen sharing and recordings in apps that respect it. Some apps that capture your entire screen may still show it, so share a single window when you can and do a quick test share in Webex before going live.
Float your script above the call, scroll it with your voice, and keep it off the shared screen.
Free to start. One subscription covers iPhone, iPad, and Mac. macOS 26+.
Who this setup is for
- Enterprise presenters standardized on Webex
- Support and success teams running scripted enablement calls
- Speakers who already know the Zoom dual-window pattern
- Windows users who need a free browser option
Free option: the web teleprompter with Webex
No Mac, or on Windows or Chromebook? The free web teleprompter works in any modern browser. It scrolls at a speed you set (no Voice Follow), and its picture-in-picture window is visible if you share your whole screen, so share a single window instead.
- Load your talking points in the web teleprompter (open, proof, transitions, close).
- Set ~120–130 WPM and large font; open Document PiP on Chrome/Edge/Firefox and place it beside Webex near the webcam — ideal for one-laptop meetings. Or use a second display.
- Join Webex. Share an application or content window — not the entire screen if the script or PiP is visible there.
- Start scrolling for prepared sections; pause when attendees jump in.
- Optional: use a phone beside the webcam if you prefer not to use PiP.

Tips that keep delivery natural
- Picture-in-picture is already in the web teleprompter — same playbook as Zoom and Teams.
- Test share once with a colleague so you confirm the prompter is not in the feed.
- Keep FAQs as a short list you can skip when someone asks early.

FAQ
- Will people see my teleprompter in Webex?
- With GoTeleprompter for Mac, Hide from Screen Sharing (on by default) keeps the prompter out of screen sharing and recordings in apps that respect it. Some apps that capture your entire screen may still show it, so do a quick test share before going live. The web teleprompter’s picture-in-picture window is never hidden, so share a single window instead of your whole screen.
- Is there a Mac app that works with Webex?
