Disappointed, I regret paying for the app.
every time you flip your phone up then down it says something. EVERY TIME. and it's completely random gibberish. you can test it, wait 10, 15, however long you want. get no response. then back to back to back EVERY time you flip the phone. garbage

I had it less than an hour realised I didn't want it and can not get my money back. scam don't install it.
fake and lame
Turns out the ghosts haunting my house are apparently fridge magnets🥴 Put a magnet near your phone and the app instantly reacts every time..lol! It does provide entertainment, but it definitely doesn’t feel like intelligent spirit communication, just sensor changes. So yeah, I’d say the responses feel very random and definitely not proof of "spirits"😂 EDIT: So, in no way am I shocked😂 If normal sensor changes already explain the responses, what's different to free apps? £4.99 for a debate😂
after updating to one ui 8.5 on my Samsung this app uses 33.1% of the battery causing it to drain even while its charging.
still crashed come on people and still on 5/17/2026 if you can't get fixed ASAP I would like my money back
This app is total AI do not waste your money! me and my partner are very into this kid of stuff and watch all the paranormal programs were they use the spirit device boxes, trigger boxes etc.... this app doesn't make sense just throws out random words even when you dont ask a question and if you do you never get a reply to the question u have asked,very disappointing and a waste of money 😕
Fun if you're 9 and scared of the dark.. Please refund.. $5.50 is a bit ridiculous
Absolute garbage. it just spews out hateful nonsense. apparently there is spirits in my car while I drive down the motorway. Save your £5. This app is a complete scam. I requested a refund and got instantly refused.
I am sorry but I don't think this is real. I have seen the same words keep coming up in different locations and it just seems to convenient. just my opinion I am going to uninstall now.
it's all fake. don't waste your time or money. if you just shake your phone "spirits" will start talking.
want a refund
I'm not sure if my request went through. I am completely stumped as to how to get this app going. I can't recall if I payed any money for this app, but can I please have a refund, thank you
Says random stuff like, "witchcraft" "I'm sitting next to you" "I fell" "Snooker Table" and lots of names of people I've never heard of. It said it was sitting next to me, but my EMF reader said otherwise.
So this was supposed to be entertaining, and maybe if I were 13 at a sleepover it might be something to squeal and ooh and ahh over, but if an app can with a straight face say "I've been here 1000 years" IN ENGLISH!!! (Spirits only speak English apparently, and have entirely Eurocentric dialects and understandings of reality) then I think this is about as useful as a Magic 8 Ball with a slightly larger vocabulary. Most of the random ramblings are pretty standard horror movie trope.
think it's chat gpt
its JUST a random word generator..Nothing more 😂 it defo does NOT TALK TO SPIRITS .wishful thinking..people are just making RANDOM words fit their situation 🙄 its NOT REAL WAKE UP
Generated random words, unable to get refund. Don't waste time or money with this app.
I've tried everything I can.I cannot get the spirit talker to work
do not buy this it doesn't work you can make it go off just by using a magnet next to your phone waste of money
not worth it sadly
Don't waste your money. Very generic answers.
Honest opinion. it's a good app if your a Youtuber and wanna make fake contact like your contacting the afterlife. its completely random and just throws complete inrelevant info. you can leave it on an it will awnser a question you havent even asked 🤣. it's a fun app if you just wanna scare someone but thats all its good for. Ps I do believe in life after death, but this app is just a money spinner that's all. That's my Honest opinion 🙂
random words, not. worth thee. money
its fun but ive discovered its movement that makes it go off. if you keep it perfectly still, not much happens if you wave your arm around (while holding it) it will just generate a bunch of random words lmao. but its fun as a joke activity even if you know this one doesnt work. if youve used a real spirit talker box you'll notice the difference. :) and to respond to the developer: yes, it works as a random word generator ;)
repetitive, just trying to scare you, but fun and entertaining, I would like a refund pretty please
dont think much to this app just chats all sorts that dont mean anything
it is clearly advertised as entertainment. There is no actual communication. I have seen no correlation to the messages to give me pause it is real.
unfortunately it is not like the first version I enjoyed. I can't change the settings at all. like the chipmunks had too much caffeine...lol. I'd like the original version or a refund for this poor discount fake. Please
fake app, don't waste your money 🥀
No clear answers just random words and names and short sentences I was hoping to have a better experience.
great for entertainment 👍 nothing else
