*Note: This app is meant for entertainment purposes only. The thumb print scan is only a simulation, and it does not actually have the ability to tell what your weight is! Monster Detector is a novelty prank thumb print scanner app that tries to determine what kind of monster you are based on a mock fingerprint scan. Simply place your thumb on the scanner and the app will tell you how much it thinks you weigh! Great gag for parties or for impressing the ladies at the club! Monster Detector also contains some neat customization options. You can adjust the speed of the scan simulation, and you can set your own custom response, so that you can play the ultimate prank on your friends and family! There are also various themes to choose from, so you can adjust the look of the app to match your personality! You can even have the app speak your scan results to you over your device speakers. With Halloween coming up, deciding what costume to wear can lead to stress and heartache. Why go through all of that again? Just let this app pick a Halloween costume for you! Dress up as whatever your result is, and you will be the star or the night!
