Place a card on your phone. Tap the screen — it transforms into a different card. Lift the phone — the real card underneath has changed too. Sleight turns your iPhone into a close-up magic trick. The card on screen dissolves into golden dust and reforms as a completely different card. When you lift the phone, the physical card matches. It looks impossible. HOW IT WORKS • Pick any two cards from a full 52-card deck • The card appears to rise through the phone's glass • Tap — it transforms with a cinematic particle effect • Swipe the card away, or lift the phone to reveal BUILT FOR iPHONE DUO A true-size guide on the inner screen shows where to hide the real card. Fold the phone shut and their card rises on the cover by itself. Tap — it transforms. Open the phone — the card inside has changed. The whole menu fits the big screen, and the app never spins as you move. PHOTOREALISTIC CARDS Every card is rendered at true-to-life size with paper texture, printed on warm card stock. Hold a real card next to the screen — they match. THE DETAILS • Cinematic dissolve-and-reform transformation • Cards sized to exact physical dimensions on every iPhone model • Accelerometer dismiss — lift the phone and the card falls back through the glass • Visual step-by-step tutorial showing exactly how to perform the trick • Dark, premium magician's surface • Haptic feedback at every moment of magic • No account. No ads. Free. From the makers of Magic Coin Flip.
