I truly cannot complain. I don’t know how hard it is to write an iPhine app, and to have the inspiration...wow.
Back in the mid-80s, I worked at a magic shop, and it sharpened my mind and opened me up socially. I think it had a lot to do with me getting a Math PhD and French Lit MA.
It’s now 30+ years later and I’m back to magic, trying to treat depression related to 5+ years of unemployment. I gotta admit I dropped my phone looking at the price of these apps! Wow. I guess they’re priced for professionals, just like expensive equipment.
I’m really just disappointed—I’ve got my iPhone with me all the time, and it’s easier to introduce into an interaction than a pack of cards.
That said, I have iForce and Card2Phone. I bought Card Now but find it unusable.
Any other apps that are less than $10–well, less than $5 probably, that aren’t silly “I’ll remove the card you pick” types?
For example, Ellusionist’s invisible deck. I performed invisible deck a million times at The Magic Corner, and I don’t carry that around. Worth it?
Also, any opinions on the Magic Education apps? 52 card’s was free, and although I *think* all it does is show YouTube videos, I do like having the videos organized.
