Video Manual: How to Use the Magic 8 bit 8 ball App

How does it Work?

In 1983 a potent mixture of dark magic, sorcery, voodoo, and star anise was all captured in an 8-ball which then gained the power to grant answers to questions that were stated in a very specific way. With a near 100% success rate people found love, jobs, good places to eat, and the 8-ball gained mythical status. Unfortunately, the 8-ball was then lost forever...

...until now (obviously)! Luckily for you, we've captured all the dark energy from the original artefact, and have injected it into the app you are now downloading.

Typical valid questions include:

- Does [person x] love me?

- Will time travel be possible one day?

- Should I go out for pizza tonight?

- Should I download this app?

Typical invalid questions include:

- How dangerous are bears?

- How can I fly this helicopter?

- Quickly, they're coming!

- Oh no, *gurgling sound*

If you're on iOS14, try out the new magic 8-bit ball widget!

    I love this! Don’t change a thing!

    Update and edit: I still love this app and hope it never changes. 01FEB21 ———— When in the course of human events it comes time to ask questions, any questions, the old Magic 8 Ball was the “go too”. Now in the digital age and stuff and room is at a premium, it is great to have the same answers to life’s and the universe’s questions right on your iPhone’s home screen. I use this so often that I sometimes hear in low murmurs from people around me: “Hold on, he’s consulting the magic ball.” It has never steered me wrong, right or left and it is always right where I need it, on my phone, in my pocket, next to my heart. BUT, It will not be as accurate if you keep shaking it until you get the answer you want. The accuracy goes down below 50%. I live by the creed of one question, one shake and one answer! I can verify that if used correctly it is at 104% accuracy. This is so much better, exponentially better than flipping a coin and not as complicated as random numbers. Often I don’t have a coin and random numbers escape me most times. Lastly it is against the universal law to Rock-Paper-Scissors with yourself and it doesn’t really answer any questions, it only annoys on lookers and people know you are really crazy. That’s my story and I’m sticking to it!

    Not a joke...don't ask this question

    I'm not sure what magical things you put it but.. I don't really like my answers.. I'm the s word and I asked if I should take a "swan dive off a roof" it said yes I started asking it more personal questions it ends up with me dead in each one but I'm still not going to do it.. I asked it if I will it said "most likely" wow.. at least I know now...no one can change their fate right...? It's still has all the answers to the future so I'm still going to give it a 5 star review

    Five stars

    I do really believe in these 8 balls either on my phone or the one I have with me but I kept on asking when I will commit suicide cause that one of my major problems in like and it kept on saying I may rely on it later and I asked if I would do it today and it said no so I kept on asking more detailed quiestions and It seems when I have solved my mental health disorder and have a family on my own and my life is going well I will do it when I’m 20. So yay 2 more years until I die!!



  • By XxErrATiCxX

    Omg

    For the last few years I’ve been feeling like I’ve been getting signs of where my life is gonna go and every time I ask this ball a question about my life the answer is correct. I thought it was a joke but I’ve also been sitting around for about 20 minutes asking dumb questions and if the answer was yes or no the ball knew. Ive changed in a way that almost is schizophrenic so for this to be workin with me asking it trick questions it’s creeping me out

    Confused

    So confused about my job opportunities now. Big layoffs. Division in admin. Hard to see the path things are taking because of gag order. I’m usually good at seeing the plot but I’m emotional and that makes me wary to trust my own judgement. Eight ball has surprisingly helped me. I know it’s not a fortune teller. But it does give me practice at asking the right questions out loud. And somehow helping find clarity in things I already know the answers but am having trouble sorting out.

    Surprisingly Accurate

    I decided to download magic 8 ball since I don’t have one and it will be fun to have one on my phone. I asked the magic 8 ball a lot of questions and as the title said, it is surprisingly accurate. Things happened the way the magic 8 ball has said and some will come in the future. Overall, I love it and will never delete this. Thanks for reading this review and have a great day :)

    Hacked

    I think this thing got hacked I don’t know it’s give me some weird answers so I don’t know just it’s a little weird it after some stupid question but he’s good for a joke and then stupid but I just found white around it very stupid so you should not get this game but the person who made it very good job the game might be fun to you guys but it is not fun to me it’s just guessing so I will not depend on it for your life



  • By horsegurl3711

    Awesome!

    I recently downloaded this app and it is just awesome. I like the sound effects but don’t like all the ads. Otherwise, great game I love it. It is a very wise 8 ball seeing as I asked if I should do my homework and it said ‘most likely’. I recommend downloading it for those of you who don’t have an actual 8 ball this comes as a great substitute! Thank you and now I’m off to do my homework



  • By RBMWIV

    Fun app!

    I purchased remove adds and I am still seeing them. What gives? I paid to remove them. Please fix. Thanks for your time if you’re reading this. I would recommend it over the others even with the adds. It’s a better algorithm for predictions. Developer responded and helped me fix the issue. Definitely best 8 ball app.

    8 Balls to the wall!

    I love this app. I use it to determine EVERYTHING!! From relationships to turn by the directions! It’s better than google maps!! I always end up on the wildest adventures. I can’t imagine life before this magical 8 ball finally giving my life direction. DOWNLOAD IT NOW!!! RIGHT NOW!!! 👾👾👾👾👾🙀🙀🙌🙌

    Not enough magic

    Sometimes answers are vague. Sometimes answers don't come true. Some answers apply to several questions. I get confused. Many years ago I started using the physical version. Something must be going right. I'm not dead. Too bad TM8B can't be more specific about when I'll get that million dollars.



  • By Nestorious R.O.B

    I hope it’s right

    I like this app of the magic 8 ball, quick answers and easy to read. I play best of 3 and get a positive answer most of the time. I have 2 other highly rated 8 ball apps that I do best of 3 on, and I get mostly positive answers on them too. I just hope they’re right!

    Like it, but very hard to read

    I'm old enough to have lived with the original 8-bit graphics, and very, very little of it was as jagged, pixelated, and hard to read as the font used in this app. It appears the dev has exaggerated the coarseness of the font to tie into the name, much to the detriment of usability. Please Dev, just use a standard font, or at least something more readable. It's the ritual of the 8 ball, not the font, that creates the nostalgia and a positive experience. If you're really that worried about copyright infringement on the 8 ball, use the Helvetica font from the original Macintosh computer, which was an 8-bit system, and readable.



  • By sallehitaleeebian

    Good app but obnoxious advertising

    I would love the app if not for the ads. Because of them I end up not using it as much and if a full pop up comes in my face I’ll just immediately close it. Update: I am not willing to pay for the app. Therefore the ads cannot be turned off in the settings. That was a cheap and belittling answer
