Use the same script and character setup across iPhone, iPad, Android, and the web.\n\nLEARN LINES FROM YOUR OWN SCRIPT\n\nUpload a PDF or another common script format. Linus handles casting notes, stage directions, and imperfect formatting, then turns the material into a scene you can actively rehearse.\n\nChoose your role and assign voices to the other characters, or record their lines in your own voice. Break longer material into sections, repeat difficult exchanges, loop the moments that need work, and listen through the full scene. Instead of memorizing isolated words, you learn each line with the cue, timing, and dialogue around it.\n\nChoose from 100+ character voices. Script setup and speech recognition support 38+ languages; available voices and accents vary by language and device.\n\nREHEARSE WITH A CUE-AWARE AI SCENE PARTNER\n\nBasic playback keeps moving whether you are ready or not. Linus listens while you speak and waits until you finish before delivering the next character’s line. The scene responds to your timing, so you can pause, find the moment, and rehearse without racing a fixed recording.\n\nRun the whole scene, isolate a section, hear a table read, or repeat one exchange until it feels natural. Use the same script and character setup as your preparation changes from learning lines to working the scene.\n\nSELF-TAPE WITHOUT A READER\n\nMove from rehearsal to self-tape mode with the same script, scene partner, and cue timing. Record with the front or rear camera, use voice commands for hands-free takes, review your recordings, and share a finished take when you are ready.\n\nONE APP FOR ACTOR PREPARATION\n\n• Upload scripts and audition PDFs\n• Memorize lines by section; rehearse monologues, audition sides, and scenes\n• Rehearse with a cue-aware AI line reader\n• Choose from 100+ character voices\n• Set up scripts and use speech recognition in 38+ languages\n• Voice and accent availability varies by language and device\n• Listen through scenes and table reads\n• Record self-tapes without another reader\n• Continue on iPhone, iPad, Android, or web\n\nLinus works best online because script processing and AI voice features use online services.\n\nPrivacy Policy: https://getlinus.app/privacy\nTerms of Use: https://getlinus.app/terms","facts":{"developer_id":1792729005,"developer_url":"https://getlinus.app","first_released":"2025-07-24T07:00:00Z","support_url":"https://www.getlinus.app/help","privacy_url":"https://getlinus.app/privacy","website_url":"https://getlinus.app/","app_version":"2.8.1","release_notes":"We keep Linus up to date so you can have the best experience possible.\nThis update contains bug fixes and improvements.\n\nLoving Linus?
