iTHUMP/TOXIC+
iTHUMP comes with TOXIC+. You get two apps for the price of one.
iTHUMP is a powerful THUMPER/REMOTE MESSAGING tool but also acts as a remote display of information entered into TOXIC+.
TOXIC+ is the most powerful TOXIC forcing and information collecting app available.
All information entered into Toxic+ can be transmitted to iThump interface on another iPhone, iPad or Apple Watch as well as spoken to you via a Bluetooth earpiece.
TOXIC+ was originally going to be released as a separate app, but was included with the iThump interface as they complemented each other so well.
TOXIC+
TOXIC+ is included and fully integrated with iTHUMP.
This is Ian's version of the classic TOXIC number force. It has been designed to address all the issues that can be experienced using the classic method.
TOXIC+ allows all input to be stored and peeked both stand-alone and connected to your Apple Watch, iPhone or iPad and can also speak to you via a mini Bluetooth earpiece.
It can derive additional data like star signs, elements, Chinese zodiac, birth day of the week, number of day's since birth and city information from your spectator's input so that the method can be removed from the reveal.
The keypad can be cleared by the spectator and equals can be pressed at anytime without affecting the outcome.
No other app had these features before Toxic+ (unfortunately there are some copycats).
- It has multiple force selection so you can repeat the effect immediately with different numbers and different fields.
- You can collect multiple birthdays during the same session.
- It handles long numbers, decimals and numbers with leading zeros.
- You can import your own graphics to make the keypad look exactly the way you need it to both portrait and horizontal.
- Fully integrated with iTHUMP interface so you can end the effect without even touching or looking at the calculator screen.
- You can set the force number remotely using iTHUMP while the iPhone is in your spectator's hand.
- You can set up custom lists so the result of the calculation and all items selected can be relayed to you.
- Designed to work on Apple Watch, iPhone, iPad and iPod touch.
- Speaks to you via a mini Bluetooth earpiece so you can be completely hands free.
