What is Prompted? Prompted is a free iOS posing reference from Cooper Industries for working portrait photographers. It pairs a library of 340+ couple, engagement, wedding, family, maternity and senior poses with word-for-word verbal prompts, and filters that library by the light you're in using a solar engine that runs on the phone. Everything works offline, with no account. Pro is $4.99/month, $29.99/year or $79.99 for life.

Built for the moment your clients are waiting.

One-handed, mid-shoot, in whatever light you've got. Prompted is a posing reference, not a CRM.

Verbal prompts

The words that get the pose.

Every pose ships with prompts in three tones, plus silent setup steps for you. The prompt is what you say out loud. The setup is what you do. They never mix.

Nervous clientYou don't have to look at the camera. Just look at each other.

Light matching

Poses matched to the light you're in.

A local solar engine computes the sun's position from your coordinates, entirely on your phone. The sun chip tells you what light you're in and one tap filters the library to poses that actually work in it.

Questions, answered.

Is Prompted free?

Yes. The sun tracker, golden hour widget and reminders are free with no limits, along with ten poses in every category, real photographs first, and one saved session. Prompted Pro unlocks the full library, unlimited sessions, offline downloads, PDF contact sheets and your own poses for $4.99 a month, $29.99 a year with a 7-day free trial, or $79.99 once for life.

What kinds of poses are included?

Couples, engagement, wedding, family, maternity and senior portrait poses, over 340 in total, with more added in catalog updates. Filters cover subject count, location, orientation, difficulty, and accessibility needs such as seated variants, plus-size flattering, wheelchair, limited mobility and late-term poses.

What is a verbal prompt?

The exact words you say to your clients to get the pose, rather than a physical instruction. Every pose ships with prompts in three tones: playful, romantic, and a calm one for nervous clients. Silent setup steps for the photographer are kept separate.

How does the light matching work?

A solar engine on your phone computes the sun's elevation from your coordinates and classifies the light: golden hour, blue hour, soft daylight, harsh overhead and so on. One tap filters the library to poses that work in that light. No weather service or connection is used, and your location never leaves the phone.

Does Prompted work without signal?

Yes. After the library downloads once, browsing, prompts, the sun tracker and Shoot Mode all work offline. Pro sessions can pin full-resolution photos to the device for locations with no coverage.

What is Shoot Mode?

A full-screen, portrait-locked view of your session shot list. The screen stays awake, there is a one-tap brightness boost for bright sun, and you swipe through poses with the prompt overlaid on every frame.

Does Prompted track me?

No account, no tracking. Location is computed and discarded on the device. Anonymous usage counts help decide what to build next and can be switched off in Settings. Details are in the privacy policy.

How do I cancel Prompted Pro?

Subscriptions are managed by Apple. Open iOS Settings, tap your name, then Subscriptions, and cancel Prompted Pro. The lifetime purchase is one-time and never renews.

Take the whole library on the shoot.

Free on the App Store. The sun tracker never costs a thing.
