Hello guys, I posted about my magic-recording-management iPhone App 'Mook' some time ago. (Previous post link: http://www.themagiccafe.com/forums/viewt......=615857)
And now I've made quite some improvements and decide to make it free for one week. If anyone is interested to try it out, please check the following link: https://itunes.apple.com/cn/app/mook-mo-......733?mt=8 Hope it can make some contribution to you magic management. Cheers Jack |

When I click on your link it brings me to a page with chinese writing. When I click on the button to install your app it takes me to a page to install itunes. I already have Itunes.
When I open Itunes and search the app store I don't find Mook. |

When I click on "View in Itunes" it brings me to a page to install itunes rather than opening Itunes and bringing me to the App.
I did manage to download the app by opening Itunes, going to the app store and searching for "Mook for Magic". I'll check it out and let you know what I think. Thanks |

Just starting to experiment with the app. My text is not in english but in characters (chinese?). After I make a video there are three options and I guess the red one is to delete the video? The top one seems to keep the video and I don't know what the middle one does.
Is there a setting to get english text? I couldn't find it. In any case how about giving us a tutorial right here in this thread. Or perhaps make a youtube video and provide a link to it. Maybe this is intuitive to the younger guys but I don't mind admitting I could use some help. |

Hi Mike, is the default language of your iPhone English? I just tried to set my iPhone in English (set in the Setting App), the text of Mook is English.
The three buttons presented after the video been shot are: save the video, go to detail editing(like adding text to describe the video, adding voice recording and so on), and delete the video. Basically I devided the magic content into 6 categories: Shows/Routines/Ideas/Techniques/Props/Lines(gags&punchlines). Shows are combination of different routines, the full content of a complete show. In detail edting, we can specify what kind of place should the show be performed at , and the number of audiences, the duration, etc.) Routines are independent routines. In detail editing, we can edit what props are required in the routine, what preparation should be done, what is the detail performing steps, and what should be emphasized, etc. Ideas/Techniques/Props/Lines just have their literal meanings. Sometimes we want to take a live video as quickly as we can, that's why I put the camera button in the first page of the app. Your can choose to save the video directly, or put it into detail editing after shooting the video. And if you want to go to detail editing directly, just click the plus icon right next to the camera button. All videos would be compressed into smaller size so that we don't struggle with our phone storage. If you don't like to type on the small screen, you are welcome to use the voice dictation and voice recording in the detail editing interface. And you can share you magic notes to your friend with or without password (and they need mook to open your notes) by sending through email, messenger(like whatsApp, facebookmessanger, wechat, (haven't tried them all , but they should work), and many other social apps. Last but not least, it's very important to backup your notes, and save it outside your phone in case losing the notes when we lost our phones. The detailed backUp explanation can be checked in the Setting page. And please try out the "what is magic" in settings (No.7), it's a really great way to predict the spectator's card. Quote:

My cellphone language is definitely English but the Mook buttons come out in Chinese. I hope others will report what they see.

Sorry, Mike. It turned out that there is a translation bug in the app. I'll upload a newer version ASAP.

Just want to bump this as it has been one of the best purchases I have made in magic and I've only had it a month.
Been so organized but also having a spot for ideas means I never forget anything anymore! This has led to being a lot more creative! Thanks so much to the mook team!
The more I learn, the less I seem to know.

If you are going to keep your magic on your smartphone this is a wonderful app. It really makes it easy to associate notes and tags with videos and to categorize them as tricks, sleights, ideas, or shows.
I prefer to keep all my videos on my desktop however so I won't be using this unless a companion desktop version comes out. |

I missed out on the "free offer" due to all the errors that were going on with the Chinese bug problem and all. I thought he was going to let us know when it was fixed and then do the free week. Oh well, It is only $2 (I believe) but I will wait for a few more reviews to see if this is something that will even interest me. I'm still not quite sure what it actually does.

Ok Imagine you are sessioning with a friend and he teaches you a great trick that you want to remember. It's easy enough to make a quick video with the camera app on your iPhone, right?
But eventually you just end up with a bunch of videos and you don't know what is what without watching each video. It's hard to find stuff. With this app you categorize the video as a trick, sleight, idea, or show right when you make the video. You also name it and describe it and add tags if you want. Now you have much more than a random collection of videos. You have an easy to browse database of your videos. The only reason I'm not jumping on board is that I've already been doing this for a while on my PC. My method is much clumsier and takes more work but I've already got hundreds of video clips in my system. Another concern is what happens when you run out of hard drive space on your phone? I guess you keep the ones you really want access to and move the rest to the cloud or your PC. |

Yea, I do the same on my PC too and just put the vids I want on my phone into my VLC Player app.

I bought the app and was wondering if there was a way of importing videos and pictures from the iPhone library into the app?
Also can the pictures and video be saved in the iPhone library under the subject headings as well. Such as New Show, New Routine, New Idea, New Slight e.t.c. in the iPhone library? |

At the bottom of the main page you can choose "Multimedia" which will show the videos on your phone. Choose one and then touch the "details" in the upper right. Then touch "edit". I think that will do what you want. Also in the settings you can decide if the videos taken my Mook are stored with your other videos. I chose yes to that. I'm not sure how that might affect your issue. |

If I have got this wrong, please explain? |
