This has been discussed on MANY occasions here. I will play along and pretend people STILL believe there is some sort of merit here in these entertainment applications. Lets say there are Ghosts, Spirits, what have you. Lets look at this from a technical aspect:
A mobile device is not capable of reading EMF, EMP, Heat, Cold, or run through real radio AM/FM frequencies such as the P-SB7 (Spirit Box you see the Jokers on Ghost Adventures using) Any "radio" channels picked up on a Mobile Phone are digital coming from a server. It does not have the correct antenna's or hardware to receive TRUE frequencies.
When looking in to how the Ghost Radar applications work, all we are told is:
What "Sensors" are they discussing here? Because as I previously stated, a mobile device simply has NONE of the relevant sensors needed to achieve such things.
This seriously is a joke of an application. And it's even advertised as such. It's for entertainment purposes. Anyone whom has an IQ of double digits should be able to realize this my friends. Anyone can write a program that does exactly what this does. Hope this cleared it up for you!

It's a phone app.
Think about it.
I know for a fact that I have a Guardian ANGEL around me 24/7 but the ghost radar does NOT PICK it up... it only has blips of supernatural activity once in 15-20 minutes or even an hour...
That does not make sense, if something is around me ALL the time...

I played with Ghost Radar over the entire weekend. It's brilliant at making you think it's doing something. At times it will go a half hour without showing anything, then you'll have wave after wave of ghosts trying to communicate with you.
I got a total of 175 words from it over two days. 173 of them were total nonsense but two words are the kind that make people completely totally 100% convinced this thing works beyond a shadow of a doubt.
On my laptop I was looking for a replacement circuit breaker panel for my house. Ghost Radar said "electrical"!
While I was watching the end of the close USC vs. UCLA game, Ghost Radar said "exciting"!
As you would expect, these two hits were in the middle of a series of words that made no sense. If I kept using it, I'm sure I would eventually get a couple of words that made sense together. I'd have to say that a 1% hit rate is pretty poor and it says more about the people who believe in this stuff than about the app itself.
My cat loves the "radar sweep" screen and bats at it with his paws whenever he sees it.

It was a lazy weekend watching football, raking leaves and so on. I just kept my Ghost Radar on and wrote down every word the spirits communicated to me. They said nothing relevant about my trips to the bookstore, the hardware store, working on sports photos, backing up some stuff to DVD, watching Elevator to the Gallows (Louis Malle tried to be the French Hitchcock). I wished an ex-girlfriend a happy birthday on Saturday and on Sunday I was on the phone with a friend whose grandmother had just died that morning.
Ghost Radar had nothing interesting to say about those things but did tell me that breaker panels are "electrical" and that a close football game was "exciting". For those two times, it was as if spirits were in the room with me!

uhhhm yeah my Guardian Angel DOES NOT like me playing with the GHOST RADAR thing,
He says it is too open for many spirits or any type of spirit,
be it demonic or ghosts....
and without a doubt some of the words are dead on,
but evil spirits would use technology to get to you,
the first time I USED IT I GOT A NEGATIVE VIBE,
and was SCARED and frightened,
does that sound like benevolent energy to you?
It is like what one of my friends said about the ghost box,

Go on line and look up "Frank Box" it will tell you. YOu buy a certain radio at Radio shack and then mess with it. There are also ghost boxes you can purchase already created. Try to find one that any known ghost reality programs are using, like ghost adventures or the like. If I get a chance I will look it up, but gaurantee you will find what you need if you look up Frank Box. Hope you arent scared of getting real time answers from the other side because even if the spirits say they are Uncle Zeak, it may be something else entirely. So protect yourself and if afraid dont do it.. That attracts undesirables. Anyways, a proper ghost box will run thru at a rapid speed multitude of radio channels and the spirits can pick exact answers to your questions. Be sure to buy a good recorder to record the sessions of you asking and the box answering. You dont want to NOT record it. That would be sad!
