## What is MagiDate?

MagiDate has been designed for iPhones 5, 5C, 6 and 6 Plus operating on iOS 8 and above. PLEASE DO NOT DOWNLOAD IF YOU HAVE A 5S............................

Just imagine handing your phone to a spectator. They open your calendar to find each date has a playing card on it. They look up their birthday and the card matches your prediction which was made earlier. 

This is the classic card at a birthday plot, which is usually performed with a conventional diary and a deck of cards. Sometimes the diary cannot be examined for fear of exposing the method. Sometimes the method involves complicated mathematics. Sometimes the prediction card cannot be handed out either. With MagiDate, none of these apply. 

MagiDate is a cunning app which uses the built in iPhone calendar. It will make a separate calendar which can show alongside your normal calendar, or indeed as a stand alone item. Please note, this is not a fake calendar, it's the actual iPhone calendar that is used and hence there is no clue to this being an app at all. 

MagiDate can be used with or without a deck of cards, your choice. The instructions cover both alternatives. 

The card sequence which MagiDate loads allows magicians who are familiar with the Paul Gordon diary trick to perform this fantastic routine now using their phone. 

MagiDate can also be repeated, making it ideal for walk around situations. 

No need to carry around a diary anymore, it's on your phone! Simple. 

MagiDate has been designed for iPhones 5, 5C, 6 and 6 Plus operating on iOS 8 and above, and optimised for the iPhone 6. PLEASE DO NOT DOWNLOAD IF YOU HAVE A 5S
