And it’s cool not to lie! Solving ghost puzzles yeah up to standard. But when you want to do the the puzzles you never know when there is a STUPID problem! And I’am warning you that you should only download this app if you are INSANELY patient , are willing to test your patience’s or have the smallest brain cells in the matrix!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! This is how I feel: 😡😫😤😭😣😫😵‍💫😵🙅🏻‍♀️🙎🏻‍♀️👊🏼😔😒!!! Like why?! ### 4/5 — I love this app but… *2021-08-16, version 1.8* I love this all so much because it is fun, creative and it uses your imagination! But it does use a lot or Mega Bites ### 4/5 — Fun but annoying *2020-11-22, version 1.7* I love the book and app it is so fun but I do have one problem... I’ve completed the game before and I’m trying to play it again but for some reason now whenever I scan stuff it is not where it should be. Like when I scan the home page, the eye at the top is completely above the book itself and it is just on my table where I put the book and now the page where I scan things shows the book in black and white and I never had any of these problems the first time so if you could fix this it would be amazing but other than that it’s a great app/book and I have a great time doing this! ### 3/5 — Possible bug? *2020-06-06, version 1.7* This could be an amazing app, however i keep getting an “Access denied” message after the Artist and the Muse chapter. After researching this it appears a number of people have problem with this. I cannot find any support to fix this therefore i cannot finish the book. ### 4/5 — S.P.R.U.N.G. Ecto-printing *2020-02-16, version 1.7* I really love this game/book a lot, but I couldn’t get page 24 where it has examples of S.P.R.U.N.G. ecto-printing. I have already done resolution. Is the current events because of this? ### 2/5 — Help *2019-11-22, version 1.6* I can’t make the teeth move on the groshhert ### 4/5 — Annoying *2019-11-19, version 1.6* I really enjoy the book the app just takes really long to synchronize and it’s really annoying I just wish it went faster but overall it’s pretty good ### 3/5 — Having problems *2019-11-18, version 1.6* Absolutely love the book, but since the Spring, I keep getting ‘access denied’messages at the conclusion of the painting muse mystery. I’ve reloaded every page, updated the ap & I’ve tried making contact w/ author, publisher w/ no help correcting the problem. Can u please let me know what I need to do to finish the book? ### 4/5 — It’s the best it’s just *2019-11-09, version 1.6* I’m mad when i always go after profile it still doesn’t let me go on the page the button shines on the profile please respond and tell me how to and add a update ### 3/5 — It won’t let me download the app?? *2019-11-08, version 1.6* I was excited when I first got this book then I tried to download the app but it did not work if you know how to solve this issue please respond thank you. ### 4/5 — Uhhh... what..? *2019-07-07, version 1.5* So my app kept on saying something not synchronized and so I wonder that is and how to fix it.. But it kept on happening when I scanned it or flipped the page. What is that? I don’t know why it did that, this is a short review. ### 3/5 — I love it but... *2019-05-28, version 1.5* I loved it until I had to do the ghost reveal.I just can’t figure out what I’m doing wrong.Whats the point?Could the developer please try to update this or something.But I love the app and book besides that.But please just fix this because then it would be perfect. ### 3/5 — Okay *2019-05-16, version 1.4* This app is sort of fun. But when I reached dentist when I scanned it, it said “your ghost keeper rank is not yet senior enough to view this Etco -Event. ### 5/5 — An amazing app! *2019-04-24, version 1.3* I downloaded this app and I love it! I bought it at the book fair at my school the first time I saw it I knew it was mine for sure! ### 2/5 — Annoyed sooooooo much *2019-04-19, version 1.3* I love the book but I can not get past the second training level I tried so many times but every time I try I get annoyed by it I don’t know if it’s because I am younger than 13 or this thing is just hating me gosh I am really annoyed I read every review I saw some had problems but I said to myself maybe I will not have that problem nope I had a problem please fix this and can you answer this ## Most critical reviews (10 lowest-rated) ### 1/5 — I’m So Frustrated With This *2021-05-29, version 1.8* So basically, this is what happened: I’m here, with my S.P.R.U.N.G book, installing this app. I allow all the cameras and all that stuff, but when I try to scan the book, the screen just stays all black. The buttons all work but the scanning screen itself is always black no matter where I point it. I keep trying to scan stuff but NOTHING works. I have an iPad7, so it shouldn’t be having problems, but I’ve had it up to here with this app. If this doesn’t get fixed soon, I don’t know what I’ll do because I LOVE this series and I can’t solve the case files without this app!!! PLEASE FIX THIS!!!!!!! ### 1/5 — DID NOT WORK! *2020-03-14, version 1.7* I got super stressed because IT WOULD NOT WORK! I hated it ### 1/5 — Won’t download *2019-12-08, version 1.6* We have tried numerous times to download the app but it is not downloading on our iPhone 7. :(. Disappointed. ### 1/5 — This is the worst thing EVER *2019-07-08, version 1.5* Don’t buy the book it’s a waste of your time and money you can’t even get past runaway part 2. The person who created this should never make another app again this is so bad👿 ### 1/5 — Good and bad *2019-04-19, version 1.3* I trued getting though the practical and I got the ecto energy but it said I’m not on the senior level. Can’t I just go on. The worst app I’ve had since the lie detector ### 1/5 — Haven’t even tried the app *2019-04-10, version 1.3* Haven’t even tried the app because it says, “You have already purchased this, so it will download with no additional charge.” ### 1/5 — So dumb *2019-03-20, version 1.2* When i scan the book and I go on to the first case it says not synchronized and I have to scan the contents again and I still won’t work ### 1/5 — I’m confused and slightly angry *2019-03-20, version 1.2* I paid $18 for this?! It wouldn’t even let me download the app! I would love it if you could maybe make it possible for me to actually use it! Please speak with someone about this thank you. Ps. This better do something because I want my monies worth!$ ### 1/5 — the heck do I uninstall this *2018-11-17, version 1.2* First of all, HOW THE HECK DO YOU BEAT THE ARTIST AND THE MUSE?! Second of all, it takes up too much space for me. Finally, it doesn’t show on the actual device. So I always have to go here, to get into it. It’s frustrating! ### 2/5 — Great app at the time, now seems to be broken *2020-11-20, version 1.7* When I first got the book it was amazing using your phone to scan it with, but know I think something has happened to the app. A few weeks ago I reinstalled the app and something was wrong with the camera, everything was in black and white, the camera made everything thinner than it was supposed to be, and the things on the camera won’t align with the book pages. I really hope the developers fix this because it was a very fun app. ## Most praised reviews (10 highest-rated) ### 5/5 — OMG, this is the best thing ever *2025-10-18, version 1.8* It’s so good. It’s like the best. It goes perfectly with my book no glitches it’s perfect. ### 5/5 — Creepy but awesome!!! *2022-11-26, version 1.8* This game is amazing it almost gave me nightmares because I am scared of ghost lol but it’s awesome!!!!! I love AR games and very scary things I recommend trying this app out I love this a lot!!❤️❤️ ### 5/5 — 5 stars *2020-11-15, version 1.7* I couldn't even get past the. Cover but once I started doing the cases it was perfect 100% great app ### 5/5 — Amazing *2020-03-02, version 1.7* I loved it there was a lot of details ### 5/5 — A Great App *2019-09-26, version 1.6* As someone obsessed with the paranormal, I have a million books about ghosts and ghouls and the undead in general. “The Ghostkeeper’s Journal & Field Guide” comes with its own app- this one! I downloaded it, began reading the book, and was surprised by just how much FUN I was having. I have not experienced any of the bugs, and so far, I’ve captured four ghosts with no problems. The puzzles are fun, the backstories are interesting, and both the book and the app are well-produced and interesting. I highly recommend this app to anyone who dreams of catching ghosts, or anyone who just likes a good mystery. ### 5/5 — ❤️🧡💛💚💙💜🌈✨ *2019-08-13, version 1.5* I love the book so I’ll probably love the app!! ### 5/5 — 5 Start But... *2019-06-06, version 1.5* 5 Start But It’s not really working with the teeth part ### 5/5 — J'adore *2019-05-29, version 1.5* Le livre est super beau.Votre vidéo m'a beaucoup aidée j'ai réussi maintenant... Sinon les effets sont super créatifs c'est trop joliii 😙😙 😙😙😙 Et c'est juste GÉNIAL 😎👍 Voilà, j'ai enfin fini le livre! J'ai ADORE LE FAIRE c'était génial. Je vous remercie pour cette appli et ce beau livre. J'aimerai bien le recommencer! ### 5/5 — Blown away with this game *2019-05-26, version 1.5* I can’t believe my eyes (partly because of the ghosts), I would love it if you were able to see the ghosts after the resolution, but other than that, it’s PERFECT! ### 5/5 — EPIC!!!!!!!! *2019-05-19, version 1.5* I am surprised by how much work was put into this! The Ghoul looked very realistic, but not too realistic to believe. I’ve completed the Resolution twice. I am glad you fixed the problem with Runaway pt. 1. That was confusing. However... Am I supposed to be able to scan the printout of the letter from Helani Hekili after the Resolution? It says I can, but every time I try, it does nothing. The hints for it are all mumbo jumbo, so the game doesn’t help me scan the secret page either. Otherwise, great game + book! --- *Data collected daily from the US App Store and indexed by [AppsHunter](https://appshunter.io/). User reviews are verbatim App Store reviews.
