I'm excited to share my latest project: a Card Trick Magic App built with MIT App Inventor! This app is based on the awesome card trick explained in this YouTube video: [The Best Card Trick Ever].
In this app, your phone takes on the role of the magician and performs the trick for you—perfectly every time! You can run the trick as many times as you want, and it’s super fun to show to friends. The app guides you through the steps, and the magic happens right on your screen.

I encourage you to actually learn the trick—it’s challenging (hint/spoiler: in the execution/delivery, it uses the base 3 system)—so you can impress your friends with a dramatic card trick!
