### 1/5 — iOS 26 bug

*2026-04-15*

The app no longer work on m’y iPhone 17.
Developper don’t respond to mail.

### 4/5 — Slight bug

*2025-12-26*

Léger beug au niveau de la récupération des données enregistrées lors de la nouvelle mise à jour, sinon tout bon autrement.

Slight bug in retrieving data recorded during the new update, otherwise everything is good.

### 4/5 — Besoin mise à jour visuel

*2025-11-06*

Hello
Le tour est top mais avec le nouveau design des applications iPhone sous IOS26, ce serait top de faire une mise à jour visuel des icônes et du flou possible sur le fond d’écran :)

### 1/5 — Funktioniert nicht

*2024-12-23*

App nach kurzer Zeit nicht mehr in Funktion…

### 5/5 — Download this app again

*2024-11-03, version 3..0.2*

I was using this app since 2 months. Unfortunately I had to reset my phone, I want to download this app again , it is asking me to pay again. Can anyone help me with this.

### 5/5 — Great tool for mentalist

*2024-10-19, version 3..0.2*

This is such a versatile app that is capable of making very powerful pieces of magic and mind reading. 
     It’s probably one of the only apps that doesn’t require any connection. Any connection! No Bluetooth no internet or 5g, no nfc tech or thumpers. It solely exists and cleverly disguises itself to appear as your notes app on your iOS device. 
    There are infinite things you can do with this. It’s lot of fun if your a worker or just wanna fry a few people. Enjoy!

### 5/5 — Impresionante

*2024-09-02, version 3..0.2*

Una app muy fácil de usar y he conseguido reacciones impresionantes.

### 1/5 — Disappointed

*2024-05-30, version 3.0*

Having seen this app work on another magician’s phone, I loved the concept & bought it for myself. However, after following the Instructions carefully I could not get it to work. I felt it was probably me, missing something. After calling my friend who has the app, sending screenshots of the problem & 20 minutes on the phone trying to troubleshoot he agreed with me- something is not working correctly, like a bug or some quirk in the app. I requested to join the FB private group, hoping to resolve the issue there before complaining on the App Store & requesting a refund. However, after 24 hours I still have not gained access to the group. I have never complained about an app, & I’m disappointed not only in the fact it’s not working as I’ve seen it could, but also feel frustrated I couldn’t resolve this with the private FB discussion. If the problem could get resolved I’d happily delete this complaint!

### 5/5 — Extreme versatility

*2024-05-19, version 3.0*

Using this app to force a card is just one of countless uses.  Need to force a world city?  Of course.  Need to force a movie title?  A vegetable?  A flavor of soup?  A style of shoe?  Custom lists make it all possible.  Make a list of things to bring to a picnic, and make insect repellent the force.  Make a list of things people hate about Taylor Swift, and make Travis Kelce the force.  The app is so easy to use, and works very cleverly.  It comes pre-loaded with 5 lists of different sample categories, including a list of playing cards.  To quote a cliché, “The possibilities are limited only by your imagination.” Yeah, I’m sick of hearing that, too.  But in this case, it’s very true.  And if that’s not enough, there is a Facebook group where people share ideas and inspirations.

### 1/5 — Doesn’t work

*2024-03-15, version 3.0*

There should be a disclaimer telling anyone who purchases this app will not be given any instructions that can be followed to perform the trick.  You will give hints at the very most but unless you have a background in this, you will get frustrated and tell apple to give you your money back.
