Marvin's iMagic for Android

You get all these cool things and the videos don’t even show what you have in your box

I have used this app when I was younger, and I remember clear instructional videos and tricks that were more or less pretty cool (this was, of course 9 year old me. I wasn’t that much of a magician). I loved this app. Then, a few years latter, I went back to this to try it out again and see how I could incorporate this into some of the routines I would do. I found that I was signed out of the app, and it took 30 minutes for me to find a working code. When I got in, the entire app had changed. No more was there video instructions for tricks other than the ones in the set and the entire app seems even more gimmicky then ever. Just recently, I was kind of bored and opened up the app. Lo and behold, the app is no longer functional and their new app is absolute garbage. And I’ve seen some of the tricks that the videos in the new app “teach”. It might just be the fact that I’ve been a magician for the past 5-6 years, but even a 3 year old could figure out the tricks. To anyone who is considering getting the app, don’t bother. I’ve seen videos on YouTube that are shown by 10 year olds that are better than these.

I was hoping that it would have instructions or at least cool stuff, but it is pretty much crap. I liked the mind reader spinner though. The tricks in the set are somewhat self explanatory, but not all of them. I was disappointed

Spent money at FAO Schwarz in NYC and was told that the demos come with the magic set on an app..... but the app doesn’t work at all :( Tried contacting the manufacturer and they were no help

App doesn’t allow you to register. I’ve tried several times. So, don’t have any guide on how to do tricks. Big disappointment with my kid waiting to use this.
