About

WingCue

Read full description

WingCue is not an ordinary app. It lives at the intersection of technology and the impossible โ€” a tool designed for those who dare to blur the line between illusion and reality. Ask someone to think of anything. A shape. An object. An image locked inside their mind. Something they have never spoken aloud. You open WingCue. You draw. You place your phone face down on the table. They reveal their thought. You say nothing. They turn the phone over. There it is. WingCue is built for performers who demand perfection. Seamless. Silent. Undetectable. Every detail has been crafted to make the impossible feel inevitable. No setup visible. No hesitation. No explanation. Just the moment โ€” and the look on their face.

Sleight is close-up magic for iPhone and Apple Watch: seven tricks that happen right in your spectator's hands. Sleight looks like an everyday app, so nobody suspects a thing, and the first time you open it, it shows you how to reach your tricks. SEVEN TRICKS โ€ข Doodle: scribble a "prediction" and ask them to name a number. Your scribble turns into their number, in handwriting, right in front of them. โ€ข Nine Cards: they touch one of nine cards while your back is turned. You name it anyway. Playing cards, ESP symbols, colours, emoji or words. โ€ข Calculator: everyone adds a number of their choice on an ordinary-looking calculator. The total is your prediction, even today's date. โ€ข Out of the Screen: photograph any object, and Sleight lifts it off the background, traces its outline and sizes it to the real thing. A coin, a playing card or your own keys slide across the screen, even over your own Home Screen, then leave the glass and land in your hand. โ€ข Mind Sketch: they draw anything, then wipe the page clean. You draw it too. โ€ข Telekinesis: a real compass on their phone finds north. Then the needle turns to follow your hand. โ€ข Lie Detector: a fingertip on the camera reads their live pulse, or they wear your Apple Watch. Ask your questions and watch the verdicts land. MADE FOR PERFORMING Every trick comes with an animated walkthrough and step-by-step instructions. Your tricks stay out of sight whenever you leave the app, and you can switch to a plain app icon. PRIVATE BY DESIGN No account, no ads, no tracking. Everything runs on your iPhone and Apple Watch, and nothing is sent to us. Camera, microphone and heart-rate readings are used live and never stored. On Apple Watch, the Lie Detector reads heart rate through HealthKit only while the trick runs, and nothing is saved to the Health app. WHAT YOU NEED iPhone with iOS 26. Doodle (numbers up to 32), Calculator, Out of the Screen and Nine Cards work on iPhone alone. Mind Sketch and Telekinesis need an Apple Watch with watchOS 26, the Lie Detector needs an Apple Watch or AirPods, and Doodle's numbers up to 99 need an Apple Watch. Doodle numbers 1โ€“4 are free. Unlock tricks one at a time, or get All Tricks, which includes tricks added in future updates. Sleight is for entertainment. Its pulse readings and "lie detection" are part of a magic trick, not medical or scientific measurements.

Verdict

The call

WingCue and Sleight are too close to call on the numbers: across 5 compared parameters โ€” price, ads, in-app purchases and device support among them โ€” neither pulls far enough ahead to decide it. What separates them is feature set and interface, not measurable difference.
