Read full description

CTRL’d is an easy-to-use magic app that brings your playing cards to life using augmented reality. Perform a stunning visual transformation where the face of a real playing card appears to digitally animate and change right in front of your spectator’s eyes. Simply show a playing card (for example, the King of Hearts) and turn it face down. When your phone is pointed at the back of the card, the app displays a digital version of the front that smoothly transforms into a different card, such as the Four of Hearts. The animation is clean, visual, and looks completely impossible in the real world. No sleight of hand. No special decks. No experience required. Just your phone and a regular playing card. Perfect for beginner magicians or anyone who wants an impressive visual effect that can be performed instantly. CTRL’d lets you look like you can control the digital world. Features: •⁠ ⁠Augmented reality card animation •⁠ ⁠Professional visual effect with no practice needed •⁠ ⁠Works with a normal playing card •⁠ ⁠Ideal for beginners and casual performers •⁠ ⁠Works offline — perform anytime, anywhere •⁠ ⁠No accounts, no ads, no tracking
