## What is DeadBox?

DeadBox is a Ghost Hunting App for communicating with spirits. It's similar to the Spirit Box and Ghost Box, you ask questions and look for intelligent and relevant responses to your questions. You should pick a location that is haunted, as ghosts need to be there to be able to respond. Be polite and treat with spirits with respect, as they were living people once, and being kind and friendly will increases your changes of them responding.

The Ghost Hunting App DeadBox has a built-in dictionary of words, which are picked at random. It is believed spirits and ghosts are able to manipulate electronic devices, and can override the app and pick words themselves. If you are getting random responses to your questions, there may be no spirits around at the time. Or they may not wish to communicate. Try again at another time or a different location. Just like when communicating with a Spirit Box or Ghost Box, think of engaging questions.

Dead Box is similar to the Ovilus and Paratek, but with a different and more relevant set of words. And we have given the app a creepy vibe and feel to help make your ghost hunting experience more exiting. There are no advertisements, no instore purchases, and your can change the scan speed. There is a history page so you can view previously picked words, it shows the date and time they were picked.

## Key features

- Spirit communication interface
- Random word dictionary
- History log of responses
- Adjustable scan speed
- Creepy atmosphere design

### 1/5 — Can I have refund please did not work

*2024-02-25*

This app doesn’t work please refund me thanks

### 1/5 — What a shame

*2022-11-11*

Update: I realise that you can increase the time between words (upto 60 seconds) but I feel this should be random not a set time to generate a word. 

Just generates a random word every 7 seconds . Tried it several times, different locations. And always generating words, 5 to 10 seconds, more annoying than anything:( I still love you spirit shack! Just this app needs an update please! Higher threshold maybe, less frequent words.. LJ

**Developer response:** I'm sorry you didn't like the original version of the app, we will look at updating it soon

### 1/5 — Rubbish

*2022-10-21*

Pure rubbish

**Developer response:** I'm sorry you didn't like the app, we will be working on improving it soon

### 1/5 — Waste of money

*2022-08-30*

Biggest load of rubbish I’ve ever bought. Literally says the same random words on a real doesn’t even say sentences.

**Developer response:** I'm sorry you didn't like the app. It doesn't choose random word though, each word is linked to a different EMF meter reading. As spirits are able to manipulate EMF, which allows them to select words. That is the theory behind it.

### 1/5 — Waste of money

*2022-05-24*

Daylight …… or should I say night time robbery 🙄 !

**Developer response:** I'm sorry you didn't like the app, we will be working on improving it soon.

### 3/5 — Not bad for a random word generator

*2022-05-08*

App needs fixing. There’s no way to get back to the main screen if you happen to click on history. Have to swipe the app off and start again.

### 1/5 — Hmmmm

*2022-03-07*

So this app, in my eyes is nothing more than mediocre. Random words pop up, no volume, that’s it …….   Sorry but for a fiver, treat yourself to a bag of chips instead. Much more enjoyable.

**Developer response:** I'm sorry you didn't like the app. You can change the volume using the volume buttons on the side of your phone. We will be working on updating the app soon to make some improvements.

### 1/5 — Save your money

*2022-02-23*

I played it and it all rubbish , it just says weird stuff to freak you out , save your money guys

**Developer response:** I'm sorry you didn't like the app, we will be working on improving it soon.

### 2/5 — Needs work

*2021-11-26*

This has potential to be an app for real work (not just entertainment), however some modifications are recommended. 

1) Currently the word bank is slanted towards “scary” words like “grave”, “kill”, etc, which comes across as silly . Expand it so that it has more normal words.

 Think of the average spiritualist medium channeling the dead - they don’t usually say things like “gauze shattered Jesus cellar”, they talk about normal things like “your grandfather says to apply for a new job”.  

Also add more sounds to handle non-English names and perhaps some non-Christian religious words if they are not in the word bank already. 

2) Remove the hiss - it’s annoying and seems only to be for effect. 

3) Save all the words in the session in the history and allow it to be copy and pasted. It only saves a limited number currently. 

4) If possible, add a feature to make it easy to voice record it even at low volumes or when the phone is muted. 

These things would improve the app a lot.

### 1/5 — Rubbish

*2021-06-10*

Stay away don’t do anything u ask does it all by it’s self save your money

**Developer response:** I'm sorry you didn't like the app, we will be working on improving it soon.
