But my mums a psychic and she said something came with me through this .i worry if you don't do it with the right person something bad may happen. ### 4/5 — Good *2026-07-10, version 1.7* Okay, so i’ve been using this app for a few years, and i find it worth it to use, although my favorite method is doing estes method with this app while i’m with friends, overall pretty cool! Although, a bit difficult to decode some things lol, but it’s worth it ### 4/5 — Genuinely atmospheric *2026-05-04, version 1.7* The audio banks don’t just sound like a looped radio; there’s a distinct, eerie quality to the phonetic sounds it puts out. The scan rate slider is a great addition because it lets you slow things down if the audio feels too chaotic or speed it up if you’re looking for more rapid-fire responses. I also appreciated the mute switch warning it's a small detail, but it saved me a few minutes of wondering why I couldn't hear anything. Whether you believe in the paranormal or just enjoy the spooky atmosphere for entertainment, it’s a well-designed tool that feels much more intentional than the generic ghost-box apps usually found on the store. It definitely sets a mood. ### 4/5 — ._. *2026-04-28, version 1.7* heard what sounded to be my name like 4 times??? then it goes “talk.” asked several questions and got confirmation ### 1/5 — Waste *2026-02-27, version 1.7* This is all nothing but prerecorded junk. I wish I would have read the 1 star reviews before I got it. But there’s nothing intelligent on here. Just seems like all of these sounds are prerecorded and just made to sound “spooky” but it’s all just junk noise. ### 1/5 — Terrible *2026-02-15, version 1.7* Canned, no responses. Just I’ve tried many times. Live and volunteer do work in a pioneer cemetery. ### 1/5 — Malo *2025-12-28, version 1.7* No me gustó por qué es falso y mi madre gastó mucho dinero para que esta bendito juego no funcione y lo voy a denunciar por qué me hizo maltrato psicológico y el creador no me quiso devolver el dinero. ### 3/5 — Sprache *2025-12-26* Leider kommen keine deutschen Wörter , fehlende Übersetzung ### 5/5 — App works *2025-12-12, version 1.7* My Dad died 2017 and I was able to communicate with him he said my name and my last name and my nickname a lot I’m glad he was able to come through it made me feel better!!!!! Recommend who someone lost their loved one. Make sure to be patience!! ### 5/5 — It’s real *2025-12-11, version 1.7* I made the serious mistake of opening the app in a hospital. It was horrifying to say the least! This app truly works! ## Most critical reviews (10 lowest-rated) ### 1/5 — Issues with the audio toggle thing *2026-08-20, version 1.7* I had full volume and audio didn’t work it kept saying my phone was on mute and I tried fixing it with every way I could thing of. I’m irritated cuz I spent money on this. Fix this issue please. ### 1/5 — Would not recommend *2026-08-14, version 1.7* Would be something you would use as a prank on friends or family, other than that I would not buy this, it feels like it plays voices on repeat on reverse so it's unrecognizable, would play a "ghost like whisper", asked a couple of questions, no responses. A waste of money in my eyes. The only reason I got it was because of the good reviews. It's not worth all the "hype". ### 1/5 — Update sound banks *2026-07-21* The audio is very chopped… ### 1/5 — Worst *2026-07-03, version 1.7* It just kept on saying random words and not listening to me not real 1 STAR ### 1/5 — Fake asf💔🥀😭 *2026-06-30, version 1.7* As a REAL ghost hunter with REAL equipment this is fake. The paranormal can NOT communicate through this and if you want something not for laughs but for real investigations get a real sprit box. May be expensive but it’s not fake ### 1/5 — Fake, Fake, Fake *2026-06-25, version 1.7* This trash doesn’t work, many other free apps work 1000 time better, the owner is Jake Bruce and his guys, a group of techno hackers and gangsters! Some kids have nothing to do just to make fake videos on social media and put links to their garbage apps here and there, I wasted my money but I will keep my prayers that whoever owns this will never rest, never succeed and never win in his life! Group of ugly scammers and should be banned from Apple Store and soon! ### 1/5 — Waste of money *2026-06-14, version 1.7* Extra hidden charge came up when I purchased this for 9.99 as shown in App Store. The app however doesn’t even function . It’s loads the app but has no volume. No way to turn on as I can see. Can’t trust App Store purchases anymore. ### 1/5 — Ridiculously bad, they’re not even trying *2026-05-24, version 1.7* Obviously all of these apps are for fun and you can’t prove anything but this one is by far the absolute worst and I have no clue as how or why anyone uses it! They don’t even attempt to humor you! It’s just all random “spooky movie” sound effects. No actual words, sentences, nothing. ### 1/5 — Not worth it *2026-05-11, version 1.7* Random noise, words, and screen white noise. Do not download this. ### 1/5 — SCAM! SCAM! SCAM! *2026-03-17, version 1.7* Asking for refund. I mean should I really be hearinf japanese coming through in Kentucky? It’s a random word generator and that’s it. ## Most praised reviews (10 highest-rated) ### 5/5 — The app works on my iPad *2026-06-10, version 1.7* IT WORKS ON MY IPAD!! But now too many spirits are talking at once if there is spirits in my house but it works so fine. ### 5/5 — this is real guys- *2026-06-05, version 1.7* okay so at first I thought this was kinda fake (not that I mind tho) and one night me and my mom were watching kelsi davies cuz we lowk got bored, and I told my mom about the spirit box she uses but I didn't expect her to buy it. But I guess she did. So we were using it for a while and it kept saying my name.. So right after, I also got this app and used it at my friends birthday sleepover, and me and my friends ruby, julianna and melanie were using it and, the whole time it was saying Melanie's name. She thought that was really unsettling. Right after all that, all of my friends were huddled up together on the bed because we were all scared and all of a sudden the lights turn OFF. I personally think this app is real, because I've heard a lot of things that connect with me. So I recommend buying this app if ur into ghost hunting and just talking to ghost in general. This app will for sure make other people believe in my opinion, just be safe while using it. ### 5/5 — Wow *2026-05-21, version 1.7* This app actually works, I had a little boy come through he was 5 I think and a bad spirit was stopping him from crossing to the other side, about a week later I went to a medium and she clarified this and told me everything this little boy was saying to me, not for the faint hearted. Me and my husband used to play a little game but wouldn’t recommend it, he would go upstairs with earphones in, I would stay downstairs and ask Joshua to repeat what I was writing on my phone, my husband would then shout down the stairs exactly what was on my phone. ### 5/5 — Title: Interesting tool, definitely takes some practice to master *2026-05-01, version 1.7* I’ve been testing out Necrophonic for a few sessions now, and it’s definitely a unique experience. After using it for about 20-30 minutes, I’ve found that the sound banks are really well-mastered, which helps create a distinct atmosphere compared to other standard white-noise apps. I appreciate the ability to adjust the scan rate, though it definitely takes a bit of patience to differentiate between the layered audio clips and potential responses. It’s not an "instant answer" type of app—you really have to be dedicated to the process and spend time listening closely to the audio. I’d recommend using headphones to pick up the finer details, especially when the reverb is on. It’s a fun, professional-feeling utility for anyone interested in EVP research, though I do wish there was a built-in recording feature so I didn't have to use a second device to capture my sessions. Overall, a solid $10 investment if you're serious about your paranormal investigations. ### 5/5 — Add functionality *2026-04-28, version 1.7* Add multitask where applications run in “background!” Pay to play!? ### 5/5 — It works *2026-04-23, version 1.7* I really like this app my son and I go ghost hunting and I will put my airplane mode on and the app still works even better and I get intelligent responses coming out of it.! ### 5/5 — CREEPY!!! *2026-04-05, version 1.7* I didn’t believe this app until my friend opened it at my house which is notoriously haunted. The app said my name followed by “unlock door” which my mom had told me to do just before she left. The app or my friend were not here when my mom said that. So I just bought it and now I’m hooked on it! ### 5/5 — IT WORK *2026-03-17, version 1.7* Very easy to use and works well just bought two haunted dolls and dybbuk box and used it although I do keep getting a woman in the back ground whispering spells used in witchcraft my mom is into those kinds of things so I asked her about it and she confirmed it which was a little creepy to me cause what witch spirit is tryna curse me or something 💀💀 ### 5/5 — Best communication device *2025-12-27, version 1.7* Honestly, this is the best communication device I’ve ever used. Me and my husband have a spirit box and an EMF reader. We got no voices on the spirit box but we were getting intelligent responses through here that coincided with EMF spikes on our reader. Have also recommended this app to multiple people and they agreed that this app is incredible. ### 5/5 — It's for real *2025-12-24, version 1.7* CAUTION !!! Don't use this app unless you know what your doing! I didn't think an app on a phone was gonna be anything significant but it really is and it has kinda ruined my life. I've opened a portal and my haunting issues are way worse than they were before. Do yourself a favor and consult a professional if your having problems and if you just wanna play or are curious..... DONT BE! Remember, Curiousity killed the cat. I've been in contact with actual demonic figures from the Bible and things that you never want to know or imagine that are real and ..... they are! Find god before it's too late for you too! --- *Data collected daily from the US App Store and indexed by [AppsHunter](https://appshunter.io/). User reviews are verbatim App Store reviews.
