Unleash the Power of Mentalism Phonewords lets you connect with your audience on a whole new level — revealing secret thoughts like names, words, numbers, places, or even birthdays. With just a birth date, you can reveal how many days they’ve been alive, the day of the week they were born, or even a celebrity who shares the same day and month. You can also subtly influence decisions — forcing specific numbers without them ever realizing it. Seamlessly integrating with your phone's dial pad, Phonewords decodes hidden words, revealing the thoughts they NEVER wrote down. The app's interface and intuitive design makes it a workable tool for live performances or pre-show. Seamless Integrations: • GLYPHS • LUMEN EYE • INJECT • GOO • SB WATCH • PEEKSMITH • APPLE WATCH • API / URL SCHEMES • KEYBOARD REMOTES • EARPIECE AUDIO DEVICES Just Some of the Features That Hit Hard • HEIGHTEN YOUR SENSES: Create the illusion of perfect pitch — even blindfolded, you reveal the number they dialed by recognizing the subtle tones of each key. • MIND READING: They never typed it. They never wrote it. Yet from thousands of possibilities, you reveal exactly what they were thinking. • IN SYNC: You and your spectator move in perfect harmony. It’ll feel like they’re reading your mind. • INFLUENCE: They think it was their choice. You prove it was yours all along. • ACROSTIC REVEAL: They think of any name — completely their choice. But when you reveal your list, they discover something impossible: every name on it begins with a letter from the one they merely thought of… acrostic style. A perfect illusion of free will, expertly guided from the start. • CONTACTS PEEK: Let them search any contact on your phone — and you instantly know who it is. Works with PeekSmith, Glyphs, audio peek, or via URL Scheme, API, or Portal to your favorite app. • BUT WAIT....THERE'S MORE ;) Multilingual Friendly: While the app menu and settings are in English, Phonewords supports performance using in other languages. IMPORTANT NOTE: Video and audio broadcast rights (TV, film, radio, internet) are not included. This app is licensed for live performance only. DISCLAIMER: Phonewords is for entertainment purposes only. It won’t give you real psychic powers or make you a wizard… unfortunately.

Introducing Bridge: a reliable tool to send, transform and receive data between your favourite magic apps. Want to use an impression pad to generate video reveals? Or how about being able to send to your printer app in the background? Imagine - a spectator writes any celebrity on an impression pad. Behind the scenes, Bridge connects this with a printer app, allowing you to reveal the celebrity's name printed in your pocket. Furthermore, Bridge also includes the same cutting-edge AI first introduced in our award-winning apps DFB X and WikiTest to transform your inputs before passing it on to your reveal. For example: - *Letters to number position in alphabet* - "marc" automatically becomes "13 1 18 3". - *Famous movie of celebrity* - gives the most famous movie starring the actor entered. - *Zip code lookup* - "10010" becomes "New York". - *Emojify* - turn text into emoji. - *Birthday of celebrity* - return the birthday of any famous person. ...or create your own and add any more you can think of! With Bridge AI, Bridge can take that celebrity input, find their most popular film, and pass that on to the printer app instead, printing the poster of that movie! Previously, if you wanted to share data between magic apps, other magic apps have been typically repurposed. But now, using the same, reliable technology that powers WikiTest, Bridge is the first app intentionally developed to share data between your favourite apps. Bridge uses other apps or Shortcuts to pass through data for inputs and reveals. As well as adding support into my own apps, developers of many third party apps either have or have said they will build in native support for Bridge, including PeekSmith, AWP Lumen, Glyphs, TAP - The Architect Of Predictions ...with many more to come. Bridge even includes its own custom Shortcut actions, accomplice mode, input and output APIs to link with other apps, a URL scheme, its own Peek Screen and more. Have one app send text to Bridge, and have another app poll Bridge to link them together. Simply copy your API URL into your favourite magic app to begin using Bridge. - Use Bridge with any existing or future magic app that supports sending or receiving text - Standardised input and output Web API for other apps - Works with iOS Shortcuts - send and push data to and from Bridge, and even change your Bridge AI prompt via Shortcuts - Integrated Peek Screen - Accomplice Web Control Mode - For most uses and integrations, the Bridge app doesn't even need to be open! Note that Bridge AI requires credits or you can use your own self-funded API key. Credits can be purchased in-app if desired. Note also that third party integration features are unlocked via the included one time in-app purchase.
