### 5/5 — Update

*2020-02-02*

### 5/5 — Response

*2017-01-09*

Zero dude first of all it does work with a zero and second of all this is weird it's like they are recording u from your camera like they recorded that app talking top or talking Angela

### 5/5 — Acceptional App

*2016-06-27*

This is a very well put together app. It is a great way to trick and fool friends and family! It is the closest you can get to a mind reading app because the game is obviously crafted with a mathematical stand point. The creater(s) found a group of mathematical sequences that have origins that can not be discovered. That is why you can't back track any of these equations. They will lead back to your original number. Unless you find the "standing number" which is the number you can back track to, and chances are, it won't be yours. Once again great app, best one I've seen.

### 1/5 — It's stupid probably the dumbest app I downloaded

*2016-01-01*

It's just giving numbers in an order like I guessed 7(could work with any number between 1-10)it told me to add 10 then add 2 then subtract 6 then add 8 then subtract my original number then you get 14 the trick is that you do the math problem 10,2,6,8 and you get 14 all the Time it doesn't read your mind it's just doing a math problem.

### 5/5 — Creepily accurate!
