Place a card on your phone. Tap the screen ā it transforms into a different card. Lift the phone ā 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 ā it transforms with a cinematic particle effect ⢠Swipe the card away, or lift the phone to reveal BUILT FOR iPHONE DUO Place a real card inside the fold. The cover screen shows it transforming. Open the phone ā the card has changed. The foldable form factor makes the trick even more convincing. 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 ā they match. THE DETAILS ⢠Cinematic dissolve-and-reform transformation ⢠Cards sized to exact physical dimensions on every iPhone model ⢠Accelerometer dismiss ā 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.

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 ⢠Doodle: scribble a "prediction" and ask them to name a number. Your scribble turns into their number, in handwriting, right in front of them. ⢠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. ⢠Calculator: everyone adds a number of their choice on an ordinary-looking calculator. The total is your prediction, even today's date. ⢠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. ⢠Mind Sketch: they draw anything, then wipe the page clean. You draw it too. ⢠Telekinesis: a real compass on their phone finds north. Then the needle turns to follow your hand. ⢠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 1ā4 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 clearest difference is in-app purchases: Sleight at none against Sleight's 8. Sleight also leads on iOS requirement (17.0 vs 26.0). Sleight's advantage is update cadence (daily vs every 2 weeks). On price, ads and device support there is nothing between them.
