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.
it stopped working for me within 30 days of purchase.
I can't even rate this App, every time I go to use it I have to uninstall it and reinstall it to use it!!!! 😠 And to think I paid money for this.
it's even worse on a new phone. :l you cannot get a refund. don't waste your money. it doesn't work. I had fallen for it. because I saw it on the web working. but it doesn't work.
absalute rubish its jus5 a way to rip peoole off it no good at all a refund is what i want i payed for this and its all random words that dont even make sence it hasnt given me anything thats to do with me at all nothing resinates at all i will never recomend this app to anyone i would never buy it agan
fake app useless for investigations.
This is a scam app don't buy
random word generator, got the 'messages' of I was a child, follow your dreams and the lights when asking for confirmation that it's a legit app by requesting a colour. tried it 3 different times but everything was unrelated and random. no refunds possible, probably because the devs know it's a fake app.
i was hopeful after reading some reviews but it seems like it generates words from a stored system. random and not relevant to anything in particular. it's like the words/sentences are programmed into the app and coding set up to pick one randomly and at random intervals. eats up battery power really fast. there's a settings button that serves no purpose other than to redirect you to their other apps. trying to request a refund but can't see that option anywhere.
same comments almost every time......every now and then you may get a name....no interaction, won't answer questions.
Dumb. "Godfrey". "Am I dead?" Please...
I would request a refund if it wasn't so long ago I purchased it. The app request no permissions but says it checks them at start up. Under settings, I can confirm those are fake number generators. If you don't believe me, shake your phone. Save your money, at least they could fake it better.
literally just says random scary things took my money though
After a few days of using this app and when reality set in i noticed the K-II meter albeit works but grossly inaccurate. As far as the words being generated go I personally do not believe its of paranormal intervention. reasons being if you set your phone down untouched you get some activity but if you touch your phone and rattle it around and tap on it aggressively the words start really generating. none of which make sense and not reliable for having a conversation with the spiritual world.
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
