## What is Vision?

IMPORTANT: That you really can use the app, you have to make an in-app purchase. Without the in-app purchase, you will have only some basic functionality to verify, that the app does really what you expect. 

A face-up spread of playing cards can be captured via the video-stream from the back camera of the iPhone. The order of the playing cards will be detected and can be displayed. All missing cards can be displayed too.
 
All regular Poker-Playing cards (Bicycle, Phoenix) are detected. Also the new Phoenix Large Index Deck is supported.
 
Important: Jokers are NOT detected!
 
The detection and analysis works very fast (faster than 1 second).
The app has a variety of different settings.

To unlock the whole functionality, you can purchase the monthly subscription "Full Access". With this subscription you unlock (for the time periode of the subscription) all features of Vision.

### 1/5 — Worthless

*2026-01-05*

Can’t even register to even get in to make the in app purchase.  Waste of time.

### 5/5 — Stop thinking - GET IT NOW!

*2022-07-31, version 2.4*

This is incredible, I never thought that this was even possible! You know the order of a fairly shuffled deck instantly and much more information, like missing cards. Wow just wow!

### 5/5 — Amazing

*2020-06-07*

The amount of things that can be accomplished with the advanced system Martin has put together here are endless. Some of the most seemingly impossible effects in the world can be accomplished. 
It works beautifully, and I couldn’t be happier with this.

**Developer response:** Thank you so much for this nice feedback! It took me many years to build and perfect it, but I think it was worth it!

### 5/5 — Very good app! It offers great functions for card magicians

*2018-04-25, version 1.5*

Very good app! It offers great functions for card magicians

### 5/5 — A truly magical app

*2018-04-24*

This tool you have built is AMAZING! I have done some programming myself and come from a technical background but can't begin to fathom how you did this and the hours and hours it has taken. 

Sometimes you just want to show the audience the secret behind the trick as it is as amazing as the trick itself. And as a Magician this is one secret that gives you your own astonishment every time you use it. What it does for you is James Bond level good!

I for one would welcome any price rise on subsequent updates as I want this to be around for a long time and be updated but also sustainable.  I consider this a valuable tools in my arsenal, and a tool that I am prepared to invest in, to pay you back just a little for your time and effort.

Please know your immense effort on this is appreciated and the fact you released it at all for us to use is incredible.

### 5/5 — Brilliant!!!

*2018-04-24, version 1.5*

This is an app that can do impossible things with cards. This app is not for beginners but for professionals and if you learn how to use it, it will raise you to a level in card magic that is beyond your imagination. Highly recommended!!!
