— How It Works: Ask your friend to name *any* playing card. Hand them your iPhone and let them open the Rising Card app. A photo of a deck of cards appears. As they think of their card and shake the phone, their chosen card *visibly rises* from the deck.
No forcing. The tricks works *every* time, with ANY card they name.
This app showcases a brilliant method pioneered by critically acclaimed magician Chris Kenner (executive producer for David Copperfield). It's simple to learn and devastatingly effective.
- Perfect for beginners and pros - Simple to learn - Can be *any* card - Your friends will FREAK out

8 of 25Way to improve the illusion. Instead of having the Ace of Spades facing the camera, use a BOX of the cards you want to promote. The Illusion is great, except when someone picks the Ace of Spades. It's already right there and kind of spoils the illusion to see another Ace of Spades pop up when the Ace is already showing. If you could make the hand holding a box of cards-- the lid pops up and then the card rises, now that would be an illusion. The illusion is fabous. I have worked this into my routine and the audiences love it!!!! As a magician, I believe this little fix will make the illusion even more effective. Just some constructive criticism.

I loved this app a year ago, I used it all the time, but after the IOS 7 update theory11 still has not changed the theme to the theme of ios7? If u could please fix this that would be awesome!
Without fail I get a girls number. “If my phone can guess what card you are thinking of, you give me your number. Deal?”
The app still uses a notch on the top. Should be updated to either show Dynamic Island, or nothing at all.
I still completely fool people with this trick. It works even better than it ever has.
I have been hesitant to combine tech with magic. A pro friend recommended this app and it's one of best investments I have made. Very reliable, easy to use and looks great. Using stack or glimpse, the card does not need to be named until it rises. Highly recommended!
Rising Cards app is great mentalism trick that is easy to do, fun to perform and is always with you and ready to go. Great for the beginner or advanced magician.
This has been a tried and true reveal for years, and still kills… would love if it were updated with some of the newer Theory11 decks!!
