"The best app of the decade."
- Craig Petty

"Cognito is genius. What an incredible tool with limitless possibilities. 11/10"
- Christian Grace

Magicians and mentalists have strived for centuries to crack the code of real mind reading.

COGNITO is the closest you will ever come to experiencing the incredible power of telepathy.

Imagine having someone think of ANYTHING (a playing card, star sign, word, movie, celebrity...whatever THEY want). They NEVER write it down, type it, point at it, click it, blink or even whisper...the thought ONLY exists inside their mind.

Yet with Cognito you know EXACTLY what they are thinking. There is even a way to do it with no peek at all.

Cognito is a revolutionary Magic App that combines a classic principle with genius new methods to know what spectators are thinking without seemingly doing anything.

The reason reviewers are calling this "The best app of the decade." is because it has no competition. Cognito stands on its own as the most unique and brilliantly thought out Magic App ever created.

Simply put; Magic Apps shouldn't get reactions like this.

Incredibly easy to perform
NO memory work or mental calculations
Perform in minutes
Works in ANY language
NO internet needed
Fools magicians
Multiple effects built in
Create your own effects with ease.

PLUS: A huge and active Facebook community (facebook name: cognitoapp) packed with ideas and new improbable routines.

Created by Lloyd Barnes & Owen Garfield and developed by Joshua Riley, Murphy's Magic proudly presents... COGNITO

The instructions are just bad Report this review

Verified buyer Pro Privacy ON (login to see reviewer names) on November 6th, 2021

I have watch the instruction video a number of times, I also read the instructions a number of times and still no luck getting it set up.
I join the group on Facebook, no-one every got back on why this is so hard to set up and what I was (or the app) doing something wrong.
I order this before any review I wish I would have waiting to save myself $30 bucks.

Extremely OVERHYPED Report this review

Pro Privacy ON (login to see reviewer names) on January 1st, 2022

It is an extremely overyhyped app.

They say it's the 'best app ever', but in all honesty, it's NOT EVEN CLOSE to apps like wiki**** and inj***.

Kindly don't waste your money on this app, invest somewhere else. I regret buying this.

It's True: Difficult Instructions Report this review

Verified buyer Pro Privacy ON (login to see reviewer names) on November 9th, 2021

I want to learn this trick, then love it. But the video seems to start off in the middle, as if we have already seen what the product can accomplish. I felt like I walked into day 3 of a class and nobody told me what the class was about.

It also takes a while to set this up on an Android. By the time I figured it out, I lost interest in pursuing the video. Maybe soon.

Caveat Emptor Report this review

Pro Privacy ON (login to see reviewer names) on October 25th, 2021

I wanted to like this, but I do not. To begin, the instructional video is meandering and confusing. Editing and scripting would have helped. The presenter is obviously excited and enthusiastic about the product, but that does not make up for his rambling and monotonous delivery. Tighten it up, man!

The setup instructions, at least for me, were confusing, and once I got the app set up, trying to understand how to use the it was an exercise in frustration.

The tricks themselves? Nothing spectacular. Nothing that I would consider a real fooler or even particularly entertaining.

Apologies to the producers, but in my opinion this is a real waste of time and money. And speaking of money, I paid a nice price for this app and deeply regret the purchase. This is going directly into my electronic magic junk drawer. Bummer.

Color me disappointed, but also color me to blame. It's my own fault; should've taken more time to explore the app. Live and learn.

Good App...Terrible Execution Report this review

Verified buyer Pro Privacy ON (login to see reviewer names) on January 24th, 2022

The app is good, once setup your audiences will love it. However as others have said the instruction have a lot to be desired. The issue I had is once I purchased it, it took 60 Days for me to receive a small card with my license key printed on it. 2 Months for something that should have been distributed electronically! Penguin Magic shipped it within a day, so not their fault. The execution of this product (instructions and activation) needs to get with the current times.

A convoluted mess Report this review

Verified buyer Pro Privacy ON (login to see reviewer names) on May 24th, 2022

Wow-this is a very confusing product/app and I really want to learn this. But the instructions are overwhelming and the video presentations have no real flow. The rate at which information is presented is fast and there seems to be many assumptions abut how "easy" this is. I had to put it down after about 90 minutes and I am still not sure how to get into the performance. I'll keep working on this and follow up with an additional review.

So bad Report this review

Verified buyer Pro Privacy ON (login to see reviewer names) on January 13th, 2022

I bought this magic and from the first second I can do nothing with it. There are issues with the version of Android. Can't figure out why sell an unsuitable product.
Such an unclear and unprofessional instructional video.
I just want my money back

Cleverly lackluster Report this review

Verified buyer Pro Privacy ON (login to see reviewer names) on November 16th, 2021

The app is based on a clever principle. The method that used time seemed most magical. All the other methods seemed a bit lackluster. For those methods, most people I performed this for had a sense of how it worked--which, as we all know, kind of kills the magic.

I did like that it was customizable. So, that is a win. I would have liked to see more examples using the time method.

The instructions were very difficult to watch. You can tell Lloyd was very passionate, but it felt like a lot of rambling rather than cutting right to the point of how this all works--step-by-step and show performances.

I may only perform the horoscope as seen in the trailer unless I can come up with something clever on my own using the time method.

Awesome app with confusing teaching Report this review

Pro Privacy ON (login to see reviewer names) on October 31st, 2021

Ok. I LOVE this app. I think it has many potential mind melting applications. I took one star off because the instruction, while cheerfully and enthusiastically rendered, is quite confusing, mysteriously organized and doesn't address some key points (e.g., the mechanics of peeking on a smart watch). I'd encourage the authors to find someone who teaches well to recast it. This would make it a 5+++ product.
