Smagic is bringing out a killer effect you can do with your phone.
I can see this effect bombing magician's social media of spectator's photos. This in essence is a great revelation that I am sure many people are going to enjoy. More info: https://www.murphysmagic.com/Product.aspx?id=62181 Best regards, Titanas

Trailer looks good but how much of it is edited out? Of there is any important part edited out?

Looks very clever. Like a MARTY type effect without having to hold anything. I am fairly certain that the card needs to be known prior to the photo and like most apps the way you open the app codes for the card in the photo. For 16 bucks I’m in

It's "Card to Impossible Location"
You can preset the card to be the force before you open your "camera app." The spectator poses with fingers extended and you snap the shot (provided they don't move around much) - you then proceed to do your card trick and then reveal your picture. When you purchase the effect, you will get a scanable IR code that takes you out to the download. You are given a CODE to unlock the program. Once you open the program [gear icon] changes the card selection [question mark icon] takes you to youtube to watch a 4 minute instructional video [letter I icon] contains copy write information :D Enjoy |

Just tried to order this from MOM and they want to charge me for shipping ????? It’s an app so why charge for shipping when there is nothing to ship ?

I don't get why they could not just have added it to the Play or Apple store ?
Like anyone else would do, looks like a complicated way of selling an app |

I fear this is a new marketing ploy... company releases an app and the shop sells it for them but then charges you for sending you a link to the App Store.... come on guys surly your not that desperate that you are going to charge for a link to an app that should be accessible for no charge on the App Store.

Whichever way you look at it...it’s a poor way to treat customers. If the price of the app was a couple of pound more I would download it but I refuse to pay a shop for a email with a code, it just seems like the company’s trying to drain every penny out of us.

I think the issue for the manufacturer (and I'm totally guessing here) is that each user has a unique unlock code like a licence, so it's very hard for each magic shop to be able to generate those for each sale and somehow let the app know. Instead, the manufacturer has supplied packs that they can wholesale that each contain a unique licence code. However, I have reached out to the manufacturer to see if they are happy for MoM to just open each pack and email a code instead of shipping the package to customers that are happy with that. It's available from MoM here https://www.magicshop.co.uk/cheese-smile......ns-trick If they are.. MoM will happily offer that option as it saves everyone money. If you have already placed an order you will get an email offering that option if the manufacturer is happy to allow it Either way, everyone that orders it from MoM will be getting an extra bonus download worth $15 that's exclusive to MoM as part of the launch deal Hope this helps Dominic

Yes, you are correct - each sale has to appease an apple user or a droid user (do we still say 'droid?') either way.
You get a IR code (I said all of this above) that your phone scans to download the link, but the card you are mailed is a physical card because it contains an original unlock pin that only works for you. (I assume, I have not tried to give it to someone else) I personally applaud this method. We've all become soft and lazy with downloads and that leads to higher theft and trading. I wish all downloads came with personal pins to prevent theft. Why not email the pin? Because now it's that much easier to FORWARD your email to your buddy so that he/she gets the program as well. (it may or may not work, but let's discourage that sort of behavior) I had an hour long discussion with someone in another country last week as to why I would not "trade" effects with him. I told him it was theft and he downright could not understand why. We need to treat downloads the same as physical items and not be upset when the manufactures do what they can to discourage theft. |

Just had confirmation that we are fine to send customers a photo of their registration/licence card and their passcode instead of physically posting it to them if they prefer.
The passcode is unique to each customer and only unlocks one application so it still provides the creator security. If you order this from MoM and just want the details emailed, drop the team an email and they can set that up for you and refund your shipping. You will still receive the extra bonus download worth $15 that's exclusive to MoM as part of the launch deal Best wishes Dominic

If The passcode is unique to each customer and only unlocks one application - what happens if you upgrade or get a new phone and download the app again - will you need to pay for a new code.

This seems like a cool idea. Makes me think of my Pixel 2 xl and the ability to drop Star Wars and other show characters (like from Stranger Things) into my pictures. Cool technology. Great idea.
