HOW SURE ARE WE
Not in any grossing chart, so this comes from ratings growth (2.1 new ratings a month on average since launch): revenue grows with new ratings, more slowly for apps that collect ratings fast. Tested on 418 apps with verified revenue: typically off by about 2 times, and big earners tend to come out low. Countries we don't track (and Google Play in China, which doesn't exist) aren't included, and neither are ads or web payments. Gross revenue before store fees.

★★★★★ So what is the deal with this program? If I go slow and use skip I get 6-12 on average. If I just close my eyes and start pressing rapidly, I get higher numbers easier and often.

Can’t turn off the noxious sounds

This app is supposed to reward correct responses. However the sound feedback is quite disruptive and can’t be turned off.

Recommended, love it

Simple but effective to detect your level of ESP ability. I find mine varies this simple app is amazing. I love seeing the messages telling you you have have ESP Ability. I knew it!

This app changed my life.

This app has awakened my Jedi powers. Been using it since New Year, 2019. It allows me to tune my intuition, psychic abilities, visions, dreams… into day to day transformations with my business and connections and every facet of my life. Connectivity is energized when I tune every day. Magnetism is heightened. It’s not a game as much as it is a tuning fork to see into another dimension. Thank you to the legends behind this program. Check out Monroe Institute for another facet to these dimensions… the Hemi-Sync is a great place to step outside of yourself. Love is a vibration. Cheers!

“Useful in Las Vegas”?

I downloaded this app from a recommendation in The CE5 Handbook. Out of the gate, I was doing well, leaning into the ways my intuition informs me. This is different for everyone but I like to move my eyes counter-clockwise around the four colors and I sense the correct answer when I feel a light touch or tingle. We all have ESP, but we’re become disconnected from it. Some have a head start with this ability, but we can train to improve this, and it can benefit us in many aspects of life. Our brains are underutilized and this exercise increases neuroplasticity more than most games that people zone out on nowadays. Please improve the messages. “ESP ability present” — cool..encouraging. For an app touting itself as a serious practice, that’s a process used by NASA, the next message, “Useful in Vegas” is condescending imo. It may as well say, “You have a future as a carny.” Please provide beneficial messages. This is mind-expanding work. Don’t demean people.

Store description

The ESP trainer was developed under a NASA program by Russell Targ at Stanford Research Institute. We have found that people are able to improve their ESP scores by using a machine just like this and get in touch with the part of themselves that is psychic. This is often called a clairvoyant ability, and can enhance your life in many surprising ways. The player is presented with four colored squares. For each trial, one has been selected at random by the ESP Trainer. Your task is to choose the correct square. If you succeed, you will hear a chime, feel a vibration, and see a large color picture. Otherwise, the system lights up the correct square, and you proceed with the next trial. The score indicator at the top counts the number of correct choices. Words of encouragement appear as you achieve the scoring levels of 6, 8. 10, 12 or 14 hits. After 24 trials you may begin a new game. The game offers multi-sensory feedback, reinforcement, and an opportunity to Pass, meeting all the requirements needed for learning this skill. ESP Trainer improves your ability to recognize your intuitive impressions, and it can bring you to a level of intuitive awareness beyond anything you've experienced before. The purpose of the trainer is to allow you to become aware of what it feels like when you psychically choose the correct square. When you don't have that special feeling, we encourage you to press the Pass button. (So this is not a "forced choice" test.) In a year long NASA program with 145 subjects (under Contract 953653 NAS7-100) many were able to significantly improve their scores. Four of the subjects improved their scores at the hundred-to-one level or better. This approach has been used with surprising success on Wall Street. But of course, past results are no guarantee of future performance. Because you are learning a new skill, slower is better than faster. If you find yourself frequently scoring 12 or more, write to the developer at his web site www.espresearch.com. This game can provide the first steps toward experiencing and developing the psychic abilities hidden within us all. software by Levity Novelty LLC
