About
Magic Reality is a cutting-edge Augmented Reality app designed for magicians of all skill levels. Its flagship effect, Digital Flap, leverages true AR technology to simulate instant, seamless card transformations that are virtually indistinguishable from a real camera feed. Unlike traditional magic gimmicks, Digital Flap works with any standard Bicycle 'Rider Back' deck — no special cards or rigged props needed. The app features total freedom of movement, meaning no external sync or fixed camera positioning is required. Transformations happen with zero motion, creating a jaw-dropping visual experience for spectators. The interface is automatically adapted to match the user's native camera UI, including language, border thickness, and card mirroring — making the AR layer completely invisible to audiences. Digital Flap is approachable for complete beginners yet powerful enough for professional performers such as Henry Harrius, David Penn, and Criss Angel — all of whom have praised the app. The app works entirely offline, making it reliable in any performance environment. New tricks and updates are continuously added to the platform. The Magic Reality app is free to download on iOS, with Digital Flap available as an in-app purchase at approximately $49. It requires at minimum an iPhone 4S running iOS 12. Android support is planned for a future release.
