## What is DFB X (Digital Force Bag X)?

DFB is the award-winning app that lets you force any one of 100 items in a list.

- Completely rewritten from ground up
    - Based on DFB, DFB X is a brand new app from the same developer, rewritten with modern features

- New, more accurate Input Screen

    - Instead of moving a list item to a location, swap out the entire note to just show the item at the input number.
    - Set prepended text that will appear before any reveal.
    - Comes with Mnemonica and other simple examples. For example: inputting “10” could reveal “I knew you would choose the two of spades” or “I knew I would meet someone born in October”

    - “Search Input” covert typing input using the familiar DFB 3x3 grid but on the keyboard
        - Customise to use any keys to suit your language

    - Manual and gyro text inputs - dynamically update your force or any list item with input text
    - PeekSmith number recognition input
    - Clipboard input support

- DFB X AI
    - In a pinch? Use DFB X AI to quickly generate lists for almost anything
    - DFB X AI can also generate dynamic list items for existing lists - For example, inputting “Oppenheimer” in performance with a list that has “Director of $$$” will cause that item to become “Christopher Nolan”
    - Uses AI credits - some free credits included, with more credits available for purchase

- Badge Peek
    - Peek icon swipe inputs in a natural display. Perfect for filmed performances, or when mirroring your phone display to a large screen

*2024-07-08*

Answer: Yes!  There is so much you can do with this wonderful work of art!

### 5/5 — Of the highest quality.

*2024-06-30*

This app is one of those “you get what you pay for” situations.  If you’ve ever used any other magic apps, you’ll know that some of them—even though they may have great effects—feel very unpolished.  This app is far from those.  From the moment you open up the app you can see how much effort has been put into making it run smoothly and look polished.  It’s a testament to Marc’s dedication in making his apps as perfect as he can.  I look forward to any additional updates.  If you can, pick this up.

### 5/5 — WOW!

*2024-06-21*

Just get it even if you have the original!

### 5/5 — DFB X

*2024-06-21*

Like usual, Marc has created probably my favorite mentalist app. The new features are incredible! The integrations, new custom predictions, and the ability to customize are well worth the price for the professional mentalist. Really good stuff here! 5 Stars!
