Transcend Theory - chris rogers

Transcend Theory
chris rogers
Genre: Utilities
Price: $12.99
Release Date: April 16, 2024

Transcend Theory:

This app is designed to generate random words.

What the app does:

The idea behind this app is to see if random formations of letters can create words and sounds of meaning. When you press the play button letters from an alphabet list will begin a random formation process at various lengths and intervals. These formations will be used to generate vocal sounds. Text transcriptions of these sounds can be used by turning on the Transcribe feature. The Filter feature of the app can be used to trim and "clean up" these audio clips to produce a more easily understandable interpretation.
The result of this process will produce random words and vocal sounds.

Settings:

In the settings you will find a voice speed slider that can be used to speed up or slow down the voice sounds being produced. The reverb audio effect can be used to create a more spacious sound. A text log will store any text transcriptions you receive. The filter strength option of Low, Medium, and High will determine the amount of the audio segments that can be removed before regenerating a new audio clip.

For entertainment purposes only.

Noir - Dark Mode for Safari - Jeffrey Kuiken

Noir - Dark Mode for Safari
Jeffrey Kuiken
Genre: Utilities
Price: $2.99
Release Date: September 20, 2021

Noir is a Safari extension that automatically adds a dark mode to every website you visit.

It makes browsing the web at night so much better. With Noir, you won’t be blinded by bright websites ever again.

And the results look great too. Noir generates a custom dark style for each website you visit, based on the colors that are used on a page. You won’t even notice this happening in the background – that’s how fast it is – but you’ll certainly appreciate the end result: a beautiful dark mode tailored for each website, where contrast is preserved and highlights still pop. And with over 20 built-in themes and the ability to create your own, you can customize the results exactly the way you want.

Noir works with any website you visit in Safari, automatically. By default, Noir is linked to your device’s Dark Mode, so websites will only go dark when you want them to. But you can easily customize this to your liking, even per website. Only want to use Noir on just a few specific websites? Sure thing! Disable Noir on some websites? No problem!

Built from the ground up for iOS and iPadOS, the app feels right at home on your device. It supports the brand new Safari web extension feature, which means there’s no need to manually activate it every time you load a new page. The app also tightly integrates with system features such as Shortcuts, Focus Filters, and Widgets to fully integrate Noir in all your workflows. And your settings are automatically synced to all your devices using iCloud.

And just as importantly, Noir takes your privacy seriously: it doesn’t collect any of your browsing data. Period.

Noir is made by an indie iOS developer. It does not include any subscriptions or ads. Buy Noir once, use it forever.

Notes:
• Found a website where Noir’s dark mode doesn’t look just right? Let me know by reporting it. The app will be frequently updated to address issues that are reported.

Privacy Policy:
• The Noir extension requires access to the websites you visit to analyze the existing style of the page and to override it with Noir's dark style.
• Noir never collects your browsing data. The only data Noir ‘collects’ are your settings, and those will never leave your device or iCloud account.
• You can read Noir’s full Privacy Policy at https://getnoir.app/privacypolicy

Necrometer - chris rogers

Necrometer
chris rogers
Genre: Utilities
Price: $9.99
Release Date: May 25, 2023

Necrometer

Designed for ghost hunters and paranormal enthusiasts. This multifunctional app can be used to detect and communicate with spirits. We have taken known spirit communication techniques and theories and have implemented them here in new and innovative ways.

-Meter that detects and measures magnetic energy
-Text and Speech modes
-2 Built in Text To Speech A.I. systems
-3 Voices
-Pitch control with randomization option
-Reverb and Echo audio effects

The Meter:
It is believed that spirits can affect magnetic energy fields. Using your phone’s Magnetometer sensor this app can detect levels of magnetic interference in the environment. These fluctuations of energy fields have a direct influence on the communication.
-Meter noise (optional) reacts to fluctuations in the meter

Text Mode:
Simply slide the power button over to "Text" and begin asking your questions. Walking around a location you can detect energy anomalies and various levels of magnetic interference. Words and phrases will begin coming through the app. The relevance of the communication is determined by multiple factors including spirit connection and strength. Those who have a stronger connection to the otherside may experience more direct and relevant communication.
Similar to the famous Ovilus ITC device, the Necrometer app is designed to facilitate spirit communication by measuring fluctuations of energy in the environment. The idea that spirits can manipulate electronic devices for purposes of communication is well documented. Based on the theory of random selection and known evidence of energy manipulation, the Necrometer app utilizes these known methods of spirit communication and paranormal phenomena.
-Access to over 60k words/phrases
-Custom word list, Add your own words and phrases

Speech Mode:
Sliding the power button over to "Speech" will turn on this unique mode of the app. Created to facilitate ghost box/ EVP like communication, the speech mode of the app provides audible spirit communication like no other. Generating speech sounds from within the app, there are no sound banks, word lists, radio, or any other pre-recorded audio. Spirits can use and manipulate these random speech sounds to form coherent messages, an idea rooted in ITC/EVP theory. Some of these messages may be heard in real time similar to a ghost box, other EVP-like communication can be heard on playback of the recorded audio. Again, the strength and level of communication being recieved depends on various factors. Coherent messages can only be obtained through communication with spirit, otherwise only unclear speech sounds will be heard.
-Rate slider to increase/decrease rate of audio coming through

The Necrometer app is an advanced all-in-one app that can be used to detect energy anomalies in the area, produce words and phrases that can provide relevant clues/information, and provide audible ITC/EVP communication from spirit.
