Now manage your Ghost Radar® readings with fine grain precision. In addition to logging words, the application now logs blips, images, and audio recordings.

Ghost Radar® attempts to detect paranormal activity by making various readings on the device. Traditional paranormal equipment can be easily fooled when simple mundane bursts of normal energy occur. Ghost Radar® sets itself apart by analyzing the readings and giving indications only when interesting patterns in the readings have been made. Ghost Radar® also includes a voice to let you know when interesting words have been detected. Please note we offer no guarantees of accuracy or any warranties, therefore, since results from this application cannot be verified scientifically the app should be used for entertainment purposes. This is the Connect version of the ORIGINAL Ghost Radar®.

For our Ghost Hunter friends this tool will allow you to use your Apple device to listen for EVPs. The curated library of around 2300 words will help you to see what you can't hear. The estimated accuracy of the data is listed with the translation along with the EMF reading at the time of the capture. We also show you a live reading of the electromagnetic field around the phone, measured in mili Gauss. Tap the pause button to pause detection, this will help you to avoid catching your own conversations, resume detection by tapping play. Don't forget to scroll, your entire session may continue beyond the screen, so scroll down to see the latest results. The microphone in Apple's devices is very good and you may find that excess environmental noise has an effect on the accuracy of the text returned. What you see on the screen is the best guess for what was said. You can also change languages in the device settings under GhostTalk. GhostTalk currently supports English, French, Chinese, German and Spanish. Join our group chat to discuss ghostly things with other users. There are no ghosts in the chat. If things get a little spooky we recommend turning on some lights and taking a break from the app for a while. :)

Verdict
The clearest difference is price: GhostTalk at Free against Ghost Radar®'s $1.99. GhostTalk also leads on rating (3.9 vs 3.2) and ratings volume (1.8K vs 42). Ghost Radar®'s advantage is ads (none vs shown) and chart position (#197 vs unranked). On in-app purchases and device support there is nothing between them.
Scored on Price · Rating · Positive reviews · Number of ratings · Update frequency · Ads · In-app purchases · Monetization · Best chart rank · Devices · Requires iOS
GhostTalk is free to download; Ghost Radar® costs $1.99 up front. Neither carries in-app purchases, so what you see is what you pay.
GhostTalk holds the better App Store score, 3.9 against 3.2. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: GhostTalk has 1.8K ratings behind it against 42, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews complicate that: 49% of Ghost Radar®'s written reviews are positive against 40% of GhostTalk's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.
Ghost Radar® ships an update every 4 months, GhostTalk every 5 weeks. The most recent releases landed on September 28, 2026 and September 29, 2026 respectively.
