## Review summary

User feedback is mixed but leans negative on reliability. A subset experiences EVP‑like outputs and meaningful moments when it works, but many reviews describe the app as unusable—won’t turn on, is frozen, or has unresponsive controls, often after updates or on newer iPhones. Refund requests and poor support are common, with some labeling it a scam. Overall, reliability and developer support are the main pain points, with rare anecdotes of valid positive experiences.

### Pros

- EVP‑style word generation and occasionally meaningful messages (e.g., names of relatives) reported by users when the app works.
- Positive initial experience and a willingness to recommend the app when it functions.
- Appeals to paranormal enthusiasts as part of a suite of ghost box apps from the developer.

### Cons

- Persistent inability to turn on or power up the app; many reviews report it won start.
- UI is unresponsive or frozen; no buttons work and no settings can be accessed.
- Issues persist after updates or on newer iPhone models/iOS versions (compatibility problems).
- Difficulties contacting the developer and frequent refund requests; accusations of scams.
- Some users report the app shows only a static image with no functionality.
