I’m so curious as to how you made it! What sensor is it using? How many words are in the system? Can I ask how have you matched the words to sensor patterns/movements? ### 3/5 — These ghost can't talk bro *2015-05-24, version 2.2* I expected better all I got was lighthouse and lop 😏 ### 1/5 — Waste of money *2014-10-06, version 2.2* Think I may have been ripped off. Not happy😠 ### 1/5 — So stupid *2014-10-05, version 2.2* Completely fake. A total hoax and theft of my money. Random words. Can't believe I fell for this. ### 4/5 — Fun app, but just for fun. *2014-09-29, version 2.2* As soon as I turned the app on I got a response "hamburger" that made my heart race a little because I just fixed us some hamburger helper for lunch. The next response I got was "seat" and of coarse I Am sitting on the couch. I got a few random words such as "mist" and "ape" also. I noticed instantly I was searching my brain for how these responses could go with my questions. I wanted it to match up, but as I left it running by its self in the quiet every couple minutes it would also go off with random words. This app is definitely fun, but it's only that. Just for fun :) ### 3/5 — Great app *2014-09-24, version 2.2* Great app... Seems more legit , among the multitudes of common app's ... But I find it needs a history/log of word hits ### 3/5 — Ok... *2014-09-01, version 2.2* Completely for entertainment purposes only. The humming noise is clearly just prerecorded and on a loop & the numbers going up and down...what are they meant to signify?...they are totally random lol. Comes with no information, settings etc, its really a bare minimum app. ### 1/5 — Do get it *2014-05-25, version 2.2* Not worth the money, I did scare my mom with it and that's all it's for is scaring people. It may only be 2$ but really how many times would you use this app?? ### 1/5 — Stupid *2014-05-10, version 2.2* Don't buy it doesn't work ### 1/5 — Fake *2014-04-26, version 2.2* If there's people that actually believe this, they're sad. It's fun but just not real. Made up words, and random sounds. Same voice every single time. ## Most critical reviews (10 lowest-rated) ### 1/5 — Bad app *2020-12-19, version 2.4* This app literally just say random words it doesn’t even answer your questions and it doesn’t even have a recoding time or frequency time you can set and and there is lots of other apps that does the same exact thing it just say random words just like this one I thought it would be a good app because of the ratings but I was wrong it’s just like all the other ones a wast of money🤦‍♀️ ### 1/5 — Junk, Not worth $1.99 *2016-07-05, version 2.2* The app is dumb. An algorithm just cycles through random words that mean nothing. Not worth 1 penny. Sorry I paid for this... But in the end, I should have known. ### 1/5 — Junk!! *2016-02-28, version 2.2* Don't bother with this junk ### 1/5 — Random *2016-01-21, version 2.2* I keep getting random meaningless words show up. I mean what does Rope Pillow Rim Grape Again , mean? ### 1/5 — So fake it's a crying shame to even have the thought of buying this app *2016-01-11, version 2.2* Thought I'd give it a shot, all I got were random words and none of them made any sense.Avoid purchase of this app. ### 1/5 — TRASH!! *2015-12-18, version 2.2* I read the reviews and felt this might be a good thing. One reviewer talked about speaking with her dead husband who died the same day and year as my son. Thought maybe it was a sign. As far as I can tell, it just generates random words. The words "chocolate" and "coast" just popped up within a minute of the two times I've turned it on. I think it's a load of crap! You can also hear a faint cheesy voice saying the words. ### 1/5 — Haha it's 100% fake and random *2015-07-07, version 2.2* I saw different reviews and all of them mixed. So I thought "why not" just because I was bored. As soon as I opened it and turned it on, knew it was fake. Apps must as for permission to use the microphone. It didn't. So there's no way it would catch any 'real' ghosts/spirits talking. Which would actually make this description against apple policy, since they lie about what it actually does. ### 1/5 — Waste of money *2015-05-15, version 2.2* Do not waste you money on this app! It's 💩 and doesn't work! It gives random words that doesn't make sense! ### 1/5 — Not the real thing *2015-05-08, version 2.2* This app is for fun only ,do not take it serious because this is not a real ghost box it is all pre-recorded not like the real spirit box devices. ### 1/5 — RIP OFF *2014-12-18, version 2.2* Rubbish random with no settings or instructions ## Most praised reviews (10 highest-rated) ### 5/5 — Wow *2022-04-23, version 2.4* according to the app Developer, inside the interface contains a word bank of the alphabet. The idea is. If A is 1, B is 2, and C is 3, and so on, and so fourth… if it’s true that spirits can manipulate technology, one can, eventually, learn how to use the word bank and communicate with you. ### 5/5 — AMAZING *2021-02-10, version 2.4* I do not write reviews. And yet, this app. It is worth my time and effort to help you avoid wasting time and money on other applications. You can compare Ghost Talk; with any other applications. I am confident that Ghost Talk will succeed your expectations every time. Frankly, I don't understand why the developer doesn't charge more for it, don't take me wrong, I am grateful. Ghost Talk It's The first and last Mobile app. In the field, I will propose spending your time and hard-earned money. One example is I did ask who is around me? The answer was Papà, and I ask for my father's name, and I got my father's name to the T. I was in tears of joy. Knowing the My father is around me. He passed away in 2005, and my father's name is unusual, and the pronunciation was perfect. Read the instructions and understand that regardless of our faith, death is a fact of life that remains unexplained afterward. ### 5/5 — Help *2019-09-05, version 2.4* Can’t reach you any other way. How do I delete past words? ### 5/5 — Really great *2017-04-27, version 2.2* Really great ### 5/5 — Love it *2016-01-09, version 2.2* It does exactly as it's supposed to. I'm an empath and this shocked me how great it is. I know who is communicating. Something noted grabs my attention and then he gets excited and concepts flow around an idea. Just listen you'll know. ### 5/5 — Amazing. *2015-07-30, version 2.2* My grandfather died a few years ago. When I turned this on, he made contact with me. First it said "dead" then "suit" then "shore" my grandfather wanted his ashes put in the shore at new jersey when he died. We think he meant soot not suit as in his ashes. And he meant shore as in New Jersey shore! Thx 4 Making This App, This Made Me Feel Like I'm Always Safe! ### 5/5 — Ghost speak *2015-02-07, version 2.2* Great total adventure, When I'm on tour doing sound with my cousin Tim McGraw I go to interesting places inside the cities we perform Tim hates me doing it because we're Christains but faith and lil mark have my back ### 5/5 — Wow! *2014-08-11, version 2.2* I'm going to say from my experiences that this is a really good app. One time I was using this app, and all of a sudden it said granddad. Then half a second later it said Roy. My great grandfather, was called Roy and a couple days before this my grandma gave me a book which was from him. It even has his writing in it from 1945. Pretty cool! ### 5/5 — Awesome!!! *2013-12-08, version 2.2* My husband, of 25 years passed away October 22, 2012 and right when I turned this on for the first time, he came through, and he was very specific! I am a medium, and I see spirits all the time, and I have used every device out there! even ones that have not yet, hit the market. I highly recommend this app! it won't let you down!! you have to be patient, and only ask one question at a time and after each question wait at least 3 to 4 minutes you don't want to confuse the spirit and it takes time for them to learn how to communicate, It takes a lot of energy for them. If you're hard of hearing, I suggest; that you use, very good headphones, Or; use your hearing aid, and stand away from this app while using It, as your hearing aid may irritate your ears with the sound Frequencies. Hope you all enjoy it as much as I do! Aloha ### 5/5 — Ahhhhhhhhhhhhh!!!!!!!!!!! *2013-10-02, version 2.2* Ok, so I turned it on it said "basket" I was like what?, ok I was holding my puppy, iPad on hand, I scooted down on my couch, I look over at the screen it said "SCOOT" I freaked out my mind BLOWWWWWWWN.
