Combined with real-time scanning interfaces and supernatural-themed interactions, GhostBuddy turns every investigation into a fun and engaging paranormal adventure.

About

Aura Visualizer

Aura Visualizer turns a brief moment of your face into something you've never seen: the subtle, constant motion inside every expression, rendered as light. HOW IT WORKS Look into the camera and hold a thought for three seconds. Aura Visualizer captures the tiny movements your face makes — the ones too quick and too small to catch in a mirror — and transforms them into a luminous, living visualization you can replay, reshape, and keep. SEE THE INVISIBLE Every face is always moving in ways we never consciously notice: micro-expressions, fleeting tension, the flicker of a held smile. Aura Visualizer makes that hidden layer of motion visible. It doesn't tell you what your expressions mean — it shows you the motion that's always there, and lets you find your own meaning in it. MANY WAYS TO SEE IT Your motion comes to life in more than one visual style — from a flowing field of light that grows as you move and fades when you're still, to drifting particles and glowing form. Blend two styles together and crossfade between them, or set readings side by side to compare one moment with another. SHARE, YOUR WAY When a visualization feels right, share it straight from the app — to Messages, to your Mac, or anywhere your share options reach. And because the moving mask is your own face, you choose how much to reveal: send it at full detail, or at a reduced resolution that keeps the motion while softening the fine features of the face. Nothing leaves your device unless you send it. PRIVATE BY DESIGN Your face is never uploaded anywhere automatically, and there are no accounts, no ads, and no trackers. Aura Visualizer never sends anything on its own — your readings stay on your device until you choose to share them. Capture a moment. See what's usually invisible. Make it yours.
