It permits you to provide the same PUNCH with Inject but through email. Multiple spectators at once, over a 'virtual' interaction. There are numerous additional effects and capabilities also that take advantage of the "off-screen" nature of Virtual Performance and do not limit you to the finite nature of Inject’s input method.

Awesome app with so much customisation. Multiple effects possible. Probably the best magic purchase I have ever made! Why? Based on the reactions it gets and the vast number of effects you can do with it. Downside - it takes time to learn, and requires internet. 2 - DFB. Clean and simple way to force anything. Just look at how many magicians use it on BGT! Genius input method. Downside - lots of magicians use it but that’s about it really! 3 - WikiTest - Really strong mind reading - totally hands off, and amazing reactions too. As with Inject, it requires internet. It’s very powerful but it is just one effect. But it’s a great effect!!!! Recent purchases that I haven’t used extensively yet in my working set due to COVID include Picasso Pro, Xeno, Locked and Loaded. I particularly like L and L - like DFB, it doesn’t require internet and also has an awesome input method. It can also be customised. Highly recommended. I’m also looking forward to using Xeno, particularly with the new add-on from Felipe Nardi which provides a superb peek method for movies. I’d also like to mention Marty - a couple of years ago this was the buzz amongst in the app market, but sadly the upgrades failed and it got reset back to its original version. However, I still use it and it’s still very strong. Anyway, hope this helps

PhantomStranger New user Tri-State Area 97 Posts	Posted: Jan 3, 2021 11:28 am 0 Locked and loaded - so simple and can use so many ways, was doing it after twenty min with other tricks Inject - very powerful a bit overwhelming at first but also can be utilized many ways once mastered
D J Hawkins Veteran user Reading, UK 350 Posts	Posted: Jan 3, 2021 11:59 am 0 Where most of our performances are remote at the moment, I’ve been wondering if there are any App effects that can be done via Zoom. I’ve concluded it’s almost useless doing anything using my phone - the spectators have real difficulty seeing the screen. And any effect using their phone Such as Inject, Realist, Wikitest are at the mercy of internet connections or the spectator screwing everything up by not following instructions.

ParkinT New user Orlando, FL USA 82 Posts	Posted: Jan 4, 2021 01:45 am 0 The Instant Card Magician is ideal over ZOOM. It was originally conceived and performed in person prior to COVID-19 but quickly and easily adapted to ‘Virtual: performances.

darrylrose New user 52 Posts	Posted: Jan 4, 2021 02:29 pm 0 Developed by Myke Phillips, you may want to look at iDeal www.iDealMagic.app - There are some great online routines you can do with it, and in peerson you can peek the selected random virtual card on your Apple watch or PeekSmith. With the app you can Force, Peek, Predict, and the 'random cards' can be from a stack of your choice. Take a look at the videoes on the website!
cardistry master Special user 760 Posts	Posted: Jan 4, 2021 06:44 pm 0 Ithump is the best over zoom. No internet needed and is very fooling. There are some others I'd reccomend also. Ithump with the remainder force is definitely my favorite though.
MagicByVincent Veteran user Staten Island, New York 332 Posts	Posted: Jan 8, 2021 06:15 am 1 I would definitely say Locked and Loaded is my favorite magic app. The reactions I get are fantastic! Such a SMART input method!!!! Not to mention the customization possibilities and potential.... awesome. Magic is all around us we just have to be willing to see it.
Brian H New user 49 Posts	Posted: Jan 14, 2021 09:13 am 0 TimeSmith is the best app for time magic for sure.
Dominique Blanco New user 58 Posts	Posted: Apr 3, 2021 09:48 pm 0 For me as owner of the stranger, WikiTest, amalgam, inject 2 and DFB I have to say all are great. DFB gets strong reactions, I love how WikiTest is so clean and easy to learn. The stranger it’s just something that goes for me really into a new world, you can do so much with it. If I would select the best 2 I would by the stranger and WikiTest together as the can be combined together and this is a huge effect
magic0967 New user 8 Posts	Posted: May 24, 2021 02:38 pm 0 The MentalPlay app from NELSON SUÁREZ has a lot of potential! Unfortunately version 1.1 only works partially or incorrectly under iOS 14.5.1 and unfortunately there is no information when a new update is finally available!
cardistry master Special user 760 Posts	Posted: May 25, 2021 11:09 pm 0 Wikitest is the best.
mikenewyork New user 60 Posts	Posted: Jul 8, 2021 02:44 pm 0 Any thoughts on Streets Pro from those who have used it?
cardistry master Special user 760 Posts	Posted: Jul 10, 2021 11:28 pm 0 Its great! For me its app of the year (so far)
Andrew Aspen New user 52 Posts	Posted: Jul 20, 2021 10:55 pm 0 WikiTest
magic0967 New user 8 Posts	Posted: Sep 10, 2021 08:13 pm 0 Since the new updates of the MentalPlay app (incl. Inject and Vimeo integration) Mentalplay is currently the best Magic App on the market! whoever manages to exploit the potential of the app is able to make predictions that are hard to beat!
Chaz93 Inner circle Texas 1759 Posts	Posted: Sep 17, 2021 01:18 pm 0 I got the app-bug for a while while doing virtual shows. I used to use Telefoto way back in the day, and absolutely loved it... but since it's no more I don't think that counts. At first glance I really liked Inject, but there have been some things recently that have left a sour taste in my mouth. That said, I still use it in my virtual shows, and there is a routine I'm working on which uses it. If there was better customer support and I was confident it wouldn't just stop working at some point in the future I may rate it as my favorite. That goes to SimpleDraw I think. I reaaaaallly like this app, being a lover of the drawing duplication plot, and it's great for both virtual shows and person-to-person performances. And the creator is just a swell guy. Flitch also is amazing. I've yet to really get the most out of it, and the instructions and set up are a bit lacking but I love being able to put my phone down on a table, have someone select a playing card by just naming the first one that comes to mind, and showing that there is only one image in my phone gallery and it is of the playing card named. I'm also using it for a free will type effect which has been a lot of fun. Again, it plays well virtually and in person. For me that's the main draw for apps: Using them to be able to perform the same effects virtually as I do in my in person shows. There are others that interest me, but as an android user there isn't as much to choose from.
magic0967 New user 8 Posts	Posted: Sep 30, 2021 01:01 pm 0 CAUTION! The MentalPlay app does not work with Apple iOS 15 !! An update was promised by the developer, but unfortunately no information is given when and if an update for iOS 15 users will be released upon request. Please don't get me wrong, I think the app is great and I don't want to talk badly here, the app is very expensive but cannot even be started, it is useless! as soon as a working update is available, I'll post it here!
