Terrible voicesThe new voices are awful. That is not a child's voice. It's not any kind of voice. Instead of giving sliders so we can alter the voice please just give us preset voices with the old one being a default option..Version: 2.1.0

BugsI waited almost 3 months for this update, and it still does not work. This is so sad because I love this app but I have been unable to use it since December. Please don't take 3 months to put out an update again. I miss using this app so much.Version: iOV 2.1.3

Don’t waste your moneyThis is probably one of the worst purchases I’ve ever made. I feel like I got ripped off.Version: iOV 2.1.3

NamesSaid my mum and dads name straight away but other than that its just a random word generator.Version: 1.86

PooNot any use for ghost hunting. It may not be random but it's not speech from the other side. Bit of a wast of money if truth be told. If you think you are going to talk to a spirit with this forget it..Version: 1.86

UghIt just spits out random words, they don't make any sense at all. Terrible..Version: 1.86

GoodNot sure if this is actually connection with spirits. Answers are not significant to question. All in all, I think this is a nice app to play around with. :).Version: 1.86

Doesn’t work anymoreI have used this and owned for a couple of year now and it was great. Now I can’t even get it to come on. I tap the icon and it comes on and turns right back off. What is the problem with this. Very disappointed because it worked so well..Version: iOV 2.1.3

Random words.Dime Water Jess Murder Cotton Rope Heat Less Intense Ed L Held Afraid Shock This is the random stuff you get. No meaning at all..Version: 1.86

It would’ve been great if it would’ve workedThe first time I used it, it seemed ok. But now every time I use it, it’s repetitive b.s. it would not answered ANY of my questions. I’ve been in this field for 30 years. I'm sure Im jaded, but I truly gave it a lot of chance..Version: iOV 2.1.3

It’s the same words for everyoneGuys, it’s just an app. “Knit, prayer, bacon, wheat, legion, shoes, spring, husband, measure, strange, geek, agent, French, yourself, teletapthy, Spring, details, fear…” Same words for everyone all the time. Chill out lol..Version: iOV 2.1.3

CrashesI LOVE this app. It's interesting, and fun to be on... but I haven't been able to go on it since around December. The second I click the power button, it closes me out back to my home screen. Please fix it, and I'll definitely change my review because this is a wonderful app!.Version: iOV 2.1.3

Do not buy just a scam for cashThe ones says this is great has ties with company to boosting ratings, doesn't work. Random messages "Sarah ant dog hat what the F???? Waste of time, if I could give 0 I would.Version: 1.86

Ok so farMy first time using this device. It seems to repeat the same words, “threat, brass, wheat, legion, prayer, farmers, yank, yes and spring”, and I’m not sure why. I haven’t asked any questions and I’m not sure if what I’m hearing even means anything. Just that these same words keep coming up so I’m a bit skeptical..Version: iOV 2.1.3

Same wordsI used this app probably 20 times over a month and it says the same 5 words over and over (measure legion spring bacon hundred) no matter the location or questions asked..Version: iOV 2.1.3

Bacon, Wheat, Legion, Paranormal,The same words always appear in each session. Other reviews also state words that always appear - got to assume it’s been programmed to display: Bacon, Wheat, Legion, Paranormal, Threat….Version: iOV 2.1.3

Doesn’t WorkJust crashes constantly.Version: iOV 2.1.3

Interesting DeviceNever heard of an Ovilus before, and since you can't get one imported into Canada this is the next best thing (I guess). Works on my iTouch, and is chattier and more receptive.. Hmmm... then Ghost Radar? Would be nice if it could log the words or a transcrpt to play back later though..Version: 0

MehThe app gave maybe one or two words that were relevant, other than that there’s no intelligent responses. It basically seems that it’s just shooting out random words with no rhyme or reason. I’d say don’t waste your money. It might be okay to use for fun but don’t expect any results..Version: iOV 2.1.3

Same wordsFor entertainment purposes only. It’s just the same words (drag, prayer, prop, cell, sell and many more) randomised..Version: iOV 2.1.3

RIPPED OFFI have deleted this app 4 times and then down loaded it again and it’s sill not working I’m being charged for it but it isn’t working what a rip off and u can’t send a message cause they’ve made it so u can’t.Version: iOV 2.1.3

Total and Utter RubbishJust a random word generator, doesnt work, please dont bother downloading this rubbish app. What is the point?.Version: iOV 2.1.3

AlgorithmIf you do update this app, you might want to adjust the algorithm to spit out words more often. Believers may not mind the wait for an answer to a question, but for people using this as an impromptu ridiculous story machine much like MadLibs, my attention span would be appeased if words came out a bit faster..Version: iOV 2.1.3

It’s not working.Every time I try to use it and click the main button, it immediately takes me back to my Home Screen. Designer, please fix and get back to me..Version: iOV 2.1.3

Has some issuesI really like this app...voice is kind of creepy. But in the last year I’ve had to keep reinstalling it bc you can’t get it to turn on. Very disappointed bc I paid fir this app. Please offer an update to fix this bug. My father passed away suddenly 3 weeks ago & I would like to try & talk to him using this!.Version: iOV 2.1.3

BlahThere is no rhyme or reason to the words that come out. Needs perhaps a phonetic option instead of just dictionary..Version: 1.86

Don’t BotherEvery time I turn the app on it gives me the same words that were said when I closed the app previously. I’ll buy the real thing. I know my parents are in my house and I just want to know why..Version: iOV 2.1.3

Appears to be hungry!Why is this obsessed with ‘bacon’? It doesn’t really say anything in a coherent manner. It’s not as bad as when I first had this a few years back but it’s still not great! Shame..Version: iOV 2.1.3

Something breaks after each update.I found this app interesting, as I live in an active area. Plenty came through. However, each update of this app seems to break a feature. The latest one, prevents you from sending your logs via email..Version: iOV 2.1.3

CrapI paid for this app and it kept giving me the same words. Bacon wheat hundred come and like ten others that were the same every time I played it. Not worth the money. If I could give it a zero rating I would..Version: iOV 2.1.3

RubbishJust downloaded it felt sceptical. Asked what there name was and I'm getting about 30 different words at once no name given just stuff like grass drank bla bla bla crap.Version: 1.86

Random Word GeneratorWhen changing the “sensitivity” setting essentially just changing how fast or slow the random words appear. This app is useless and should NOT be used as a research device. This is for entertainment strictly regardless of what the creators say. This is not reliable and is not what it claims to be. Thank you..Version: iOV 2.1.3

Database appThis app says the same thing you can’t say it don’t. Does it start with knit, legion it’s everywhere I go even in a car saying the same thing I power it off then on and guess wat comes up bacon and the same words.Version: iOV 2.1.3

Complete Waste of TimeI didn’t expect it to be real but I thought it would at least be interesting. There was no voice and the words that were displayed were meaningless and unrelated to anything in my environment or to questions I asked..Version: iOV 2.1.3

DicksonFake at its best.Version: 1.86

CrapIt says it doesn’t have a dictionary algorithm but that’s seems hard to believe. It says the same words over and over again. I’ve had this app on my phone installed and uninstalled for the past year and no matter where I am it says the same thing. What a joke..Version: iOV 2.1.3

DO NOT UPDATEUpdate is clunky, voices sound horrible and the worst part is.. I lost ALL my log files after the last four years after the update..Version: 2.1.0

:/So fake. Just spits out random words, please can i have a refund...Version: 1.86

All about timingI had many interesting moments with the app. Most of the time, it just spew out words that doesn’t make sense, but there are moments when spirits actually comes through. Recently, It gave out the last name and time of someone passed away. Once it mentioned of a metal hill, and at the time the town I lived in a town which was known for mining iron. It had its unique moments. I wouldn’t rule out this app just yet. I have had this app for years. Patience is a virtue..Version: iOV 2.1.3

Do Not Buy!After a lot of research, I found you should not use this because you are dealing with forces that you should not be dealing with..Version: 0

Well......its ovilus-ly fake but...The original ovilus is marketed as an ENTERTAINMENT DEVICE ONLY and that's what this does quite poorly, waste of money but..... I have gullible friends and it's almost haloween.Version: 0

What the hellAfter I bought it, they decided to add the word log! So now I have to buy it again to have the word log! Dammit, I want an update!.Version: 0

Scam: Random Repetitive WordsI used this sitting in the back yard of a family barbecue and many times in haunted locations at night with the same result. Regardless of location, it spit out the same words. Silly waste of time and money..Version: iOV 2.1.3

Still Crashes!!!Right as I press the power button it instantly crashes the app. I have to newest iOS update so that's no it. I have deleted the app and reinstalled it and it still crashes. I love iovulus very much and have been using it for years. Please fix this glitch or please explain how to fix. Also I'm so glad to see this app got an update I just wish I could use it without crashing..Version: iOV 2.1.3

Rubbish- nightstalker69I should have listened to all the critics and saved my money. Just repeats random words, over and over again. Yawn, yawn :-(.Version: 1.86

What a load of Bull!Crap is one word I'd use! Don't waste your money - one big hoax !!! Had to give 1 star in order to post the review!!.Version: 0

Ghosts yer rightI have also been taken In by this app. I don't consider myself a gullible person but after this I am beginning to wonder. They say it's not a word generator but that is exactly what it is. They tell you you talk to it and see what reply You get. I asked it's name and it replied "drowning" I then asked how old it was and was met with "alter". Enough said..Version: 0

Repeats the same dark wordsAs others have reviewed, loves to say the word Legion I guess to freak you out. No thanks I have enough activity in my place but I don’t need to be freaked out! However I recently used tar water and everything seems to have stopped and it is still saying legion. I don’t need to hear this crap so I’m deleting. Don’t let this app freak you out!.Version: iOV 2.1.3

BooooooooThis is crap.. dont waste your money. Go out and buy an emf and ghost box if your interested in ghost hunting. Ghost Radar is a better app. Me of all people should have had success. My parents are dead and I communicate through evp. This is a scam..Version: 1.72

Stick with it.The jury is still out on this. Sometimes the words do seem random. Other times however.. :).Version: 1.86

FakeNot REAL. Reading these other reviews and I’ve come to the realization that this app spits out the same words in pretty much the same order to everyone. It constantly says legion, wheat, prayer, knit, spring and drank. If you keep reading the reviews, you will see that other people get these words constantly too. I haven’t been able to get a direct or intelligent or even somewhat relevant response since buying it..Version: iOV 2.1.3

PantsDon't waste your money just says random words every now and again.Version: 1.86

JokeNever normally buy these but I wanted one that could speak if I asked questions... oh my god what fool I was this is ridiculous annoying I’m really annoyed that I spent £2 on this no matter what questions you ask the answer is not related at all in any which way random words pop up that doesn’t make sense at all just hilarious and waisted my time .. it’s only £2 I hear you say but it doesn’t do what it says on the tin ....Version: iOV 2.1.3

Shuts downAs soon as I open the app and turn it on, it closes the app... I have updates my phone, deleted and downloaded again.... nothing works.Version: iOV 2.1.3

RubbishIt's aload of rubbish and it doesn't work, don't waste your money.Version: 1.86

Oh dear.I'm an idiot. Why on EARTH did I think this would/could work? Terrible..Version: 0

Iovulous disappointingI purchased this app very excited because I knew of the developer. Yes I get words come up but the same ones every time out. Sadly I Would not recommend purchasing this app..Version: iOV 2.1.3

Don't waste your money!This app is nothing more than a word generator game. The more you interact with it, it shows more words, don't talk you get nothing. I want my money back!!!!!!!!!!!.Version: iOV 2.1.3

Ovilus appDownloaded this app despite the many low reviews it has for repeating the same words... But figured for $2 bucks, no big and I’d just get it, and mess around with it and see.... Well, I’ve now downloaded the app 3 times and it still doesn’t work right. There is NO audio from the app. It displays words, BUT you have to read them, it does NOT say them out loud. This must be a glitch because it’s useless with saying the word. And I’ve downloaded it 3 times trying to get it to work. I’d like a refund for this crap, because it doesn’t even work! So, not only did it display the same words everyone said it would, there is NO audio. This app is terrible..Version: iOV 2.1.3

No great discoveryI was hopeful about this app but it only comes out with random words and wouldn't respond to any of my questions with reasonable answers such as what is my name? The answer I got was "table" which doesn't sound even vaguely like my name. I don't think it's worth buying to be fair..Version: 1.86

CrapJust says the same words, dosent make no sense....Version: 1.61

Gimmick AppDon't waste your money, I am a paranormal investigator and I'm regularly testing new kit for investigation purposes, although initially sceptical about this app, it was tested during a professional investigation in one of the UKs most haunted locations, the app is utter gimmick just random generated words. We had three iPhones running this app all sat together and all three gave different words. As a person responsible for testing new paranormal kit I would say DONT WASTE YOUR MONEY, As thought this is pure gimmick, tried and tested .. Don't be fooled.Version: 1.72

:•)Hummmm! Just repeats the same stuff??? Dusnt make any sence?? :•\.Version: 0

Refund pleaseDon't buy this app it's a load of pants.Version: 1.86

Utter Rubbish!I’m a paranormal investigator & a medium. I love nothing more than collecting evidence, I’m a gadget freak but with money tight & unable to buy a real ovilus in the UK I thought I’d try the iOvilus considering it’s produced by the same people ‘digital dowsing’ who manufacture the Ovilus, I thought it would be good!! Haha it’s a joke & now I’m not so sure I want an original Ovilus one day when I can afford & actually find someone that sells them in the UK! If the app is anything to go by! It spits out random words constantly with no meaning behind them. I’ve had this a couple of years on my phone now & used it at several haunted locations & it’s just the same! Very disappointed in Digital Dowsing for bringing this out & deceiving thousands of people & they should be disappointed in themselves! Very unprofessional!.Version: iOV 2.1.3

Nope. Big vocabulary, same 10 words.The same words over and over again days and weeks apart. Some words repeat in same session. Funny saw the same words in app screen shot example. I would pass. Dozens of occurrences of these words: PRAYER, BACON, AGENT, TELEPATHY, LEGION, THREAT, YOURSELF..Version: iOV 2.1.3

It’s sh1tWatching cj faison on YouTube. He was using the same app. I downloaded for a laugh. Mine was repeating what his was saying..Version: iOV 2.1.3

FAKE AND WASTE OF MONEYI paid for this app cause the internet said it could be legit... well my friend and I used it for 2 sessions in different locations one night, and the second session gave LITERALLY the same exact words as the first session in LITERALLY the same exact order. So yeah, this is objectively a scam. I’m going to try to get a refund even though it’s only $2 because this is ridiculous. I’ve seen other people saying the words they got..... they’re the same as what we got. Knit, wheat, prayer, etc... bull crap.Version: iOV 2.1.3

Total rip offLike others have reported, it spits out the same series of words with the occasional new one. All non-sensical. Not sentences. Absolute rubbish..Version: iOV 2.1.3

Same words over and over. Waste of money.Constantly says Legion ,prayer ,wheat, bacon, strange ,shoes ,agent ,and hundred. That is. I also get Libya thrown in ALOT. Just the same words. Waste of money. Can’t even use it for the scare factor..Version: iOV 2.1.3

AwfulIt's just awful. Random word generator.. It's crap.Version: 1.86

Satanic AussieFake another rip off ghost detector do not let it fool you. None of these apps actually work.Version: 1.86

🤦🏻‍♂️ wheat, Legion…..same words that everyone else is reporting.Guess this app is just another word generator. I have all of the same words as a previous reviewer who had such a great story about the demon Legion. Duped again….Version: iOV 2.1.3

Crashes on IPod 5I own the real original box. Works great phonetic mode. This version continuously crashes as soon as opens. Redown loaded it several times over last year to if fixed. No it still not working..Version: iOV 2.1.3

Dave you’re money to buy the real ovilusOkay so it kept repeating words. Also I don’t think it’s the real one. Dave your money and buy the real ovilus. This is just for entertainment I think. Honestly they should change it to “ Just for fun”. Bascislly only use for it is to scare your friends. ThaTs it. Nothing more. It’s an joke. Might have more luck with an spirit box..Version: iOV 2.1.3

App crashes constantlyI used to love the app, and recommended it often. Now the app does nothing but crash when you try and start it. It’s been a year and no fix in sight. Fix the app please..Version: iOV 2.1.3

IOvilusJust random words means nothing very boring really no use at all..Version: 1.86

BsTerrible and don't waste Ur money.Version: iOV 2.1.3

An obvious gimmick, and terrible too!The principle of this is sketchy at best, but out of idle curiosity, I purchased this, having a great interest in all things paranormal. The actual Ovilus is considered a must have device for some paranormal investigators, though the decent ones use better equipment. This isn't as good that piece of junk. AVOID!!!!!!!!.Version: 1.72

Cannot use with voice over since the new updateAre use this app a lot before the last update. Since the last update, voiceover will not read the start button. There is no way for me to know how to turn oculus on. None of the buttons are labeled. Could you please fix this issue so I could use the app again? I enjoyed it very much before the update..Version: iOV 2.1.3
