"The Stranger" is an effect that transcends the typical magic trick, according to David Regal in "Genii Magazine". It offers unlimited scenarios where a random stranger is called and reveals information that leaves the audience speechless. This impossible moment elicits uncontrollable applause every time.

This purchase allows you to have a playing card, number, word, or other details revealed by a stranger without any forcing. The app can also be used to read NFC tags or allow the audience member to speak and have key details revealed without the performer saying a word.

Renowned magicians and entertainers have praised "The Stranger" for its cleverness, versatility, and the incredible reactions it generates. It has received explosive reactions from audiences and has been hailed as the best "Call a Stranger" idea ever. The app is designed for both working professionals and beginners in mind.

In terms of international globalization, "The Stranger" supports various regions and languages. It displays phone numbers in the correct format, features ringer tones specific to each region, utilizes language translation for phone screens, ensures conversation recordings are in the chosen language, and provides disconnected number recordings in the appropriate language.

The supported regions include Argentina, Australia, Austria, Brazil, Canada, China (Cantonese), El Salvador, France, Germany, Ireland, Israel, Italy, Mexico, New Zealand, Norway, Portugal, Scotland, Spain, Sweden, UK, USA, China (Mandarin), Denmark (Danish), Netherlands (Dutch), Russia, Switzerland, Belgium, Kuwait, Philippines, Croatia, Vietnam, and Romania.
