This app mimics the four most important technologies to detect paranormal activity. RADAR: A radar works by transmitting a signal through electromagnetic waves called radio waves. These waves bounce off certain types of distorted, unstable and abnormal signals. In other words, the radar will detect any irregular energy or fluctuations in the environment. EMF: An EMF detector finds electron vibrations in a given area. This is similar to a radio antenna. INFRASOUND & EVP: InfraSound is sound that is lower in frequency than 20 Hz, which is the normal limit of human hearing. Electronic voice phenomena (EVP) are sounds usually found in background noise from stray radio transmissions which sounds like static, but it can also pick up odd sounds. IONS: An Ion detector can detect positive and negative ions within an electric field. An ion is a positive charge. When there is high amounts of positive electromagnetic discharges it is thought to be due to paranormal activities. Disclaimer: This app is made for fun and entertainment purposes only.

Turn your next ghost hunt into a story worth sharing. Camera Ghost Radar is a ghost detector simulator that combines your camera view, a radar and animated apparitions for a spooky game on your phone. Follow the signal, turn slowly and see what the next scan brings. START WITH A SCAN Open the scanner and watch the search unfold on your camera screen. Signal effects and interference build anticipation before the result appears. Will this round reveal a warm presence, a dark figure or no apparition at all? Not knowing what comes next is part of the suspense. FOLLOW THE RADAR Use the radar and the on-screen direction to guide where you turn your phone. Move slowly and look through the camera for the presence in the scene. Radar and camera describe the same game encounter, so you can follow its position as you change direction. LIGHT, SHADOW AND MOVEMENT Not every encounter looks the same. A luminous figure feels very different from a dark presence. Animated mist, light and movement bring the apparitions to life on screen, while their apparent size can vary between encounters. Take a moment to watch what appears before starting another scan. A GHOST-HUNTING GAME TO SHARE Take turns with friends, add a paranormal theme to game night or bring a little more atmosphere to Halloween. Who will notice the signal first? Who will spot the apparition? A familiar room or hallway becomes the backdrop for a fictional ghost hunt, without needing a complicated setup. PLAY AT YOUR OWN PACE Choose when to scan, when to explore an encounter and when to leave. If you enable the optional game reminders, manage them from the notification controls in the app. These are invitations to play, not reports of real paranormal activity around you. CAMERA, RADAR AND A LITTLE SUSPENSE Enjoy the experience as a ghost camera game, a radar simulator or a way to share a playful scare. Each scan is another round: an empty result is also part of the game. Open the camera, follow the radar and discover what waits on screen. Camera Ghost Radar is a simulation for entertainment. It creates fictional encounters and does not detect real ghosts, communicate with spirits or provide scientific evidence of paranormal activity.
