A savvy spec would notice that the first decimal place, supposed to be tenths of a second, changes
way too fast. It's the first thing I noticed. It also really doesn't help when the performers keep
referring to tenths and hundredths of a second as milliseconds. I don't know what kind of
grade-school dropouts magicians are used to performing for, but I think most reasonably educated
people would notice that milliseconds are the one thing this *doesn't* have. Again, it's something I
noticed right off the bat, and I'm not exactly a math wiz.
A shame too, because this could
easily have been addressed by moving the current decimal digits one place over to the right then
adding legit deciseconds, which would actually serve as a further convincer. Yeah yeah, I know,
"I've performed this 100 million times over the last 3,000 years and NOBODY has ever noticed,"
except I'd guess that enough people have indeed noticed but have kept their mouths shut out of
politeness. If the creators addressed this one critical though easily-fixed flaw it would be worth
twice the asking price, but this is just lazy and like too many effects these days relies on specs
not being very bright or perceptive. It's just not 100% well-thought-out. I like to know I'm covered
when I perform an effect, and this doesn't offer full coverage.

would absolutely recommend to any type of performer. Easy to set up. . . even on the fly if
needed. CLEAN as clean can be. Whether you want to leverage for a book test, prediction, could
EASILY work into an ambitious routine or multi card reveal. VERSATILE beyond believe, if this was
double the cost. . . I would still say it is worth it. . . could even use it for a book test at a
restaurant with a large menu (cheesecake factory, Wine Lists, etc.) and no one would even notice as
you set it up in FRONT of them.

I hemmed and hawed about whether or not to buy this because I was concerned that I would not have
enough reasons to use it. I also wondered if I could find ways to apply CHRONOFORCE that would
appear “organic.” I don’t use many phone apps because often they are clunky or seem to obviously be
exactly what they are. I use DIGITAL FORCE BAG, BOARDING PASS, and I-TOONS --- and that’s about it.
However, I’m glad that I made this purchase. My favorite use, so far, is in tandem with the JJ
NOTEBOOK by JUAN PABLO & JOTA. I have owned the latter utility for quite awhile and although it is
was not intended to be a companion to CHRONOFORCE it provides a great hands-on method for performing
a dollar bill serial number divination. I have not yet used it for a lotto routine but easily see
its value. CHRONOFORCE also has a suitable place in forcing a page for a book test. On a final
note: this app looks extremely natural in use and is not at all “fiddley.” its justification for use
is much broader than I had initially thought and I’m glad I have it.
