That is the very reason why comparing both prices is absolutely flawed. Please check the details of either application before you utter something like that - for the sake of the developer's efforts put into apps like these. |

I hope The Stranger can come out with a lite version which only allow the call to live stranger because in many other countries, there is no local recorded conversation available for download. Example I'm in Malaysia, I wont be able to use any of the recorded conversation available but I still need to pay for the same price as others. That was only the problem stopping me from buying it now.
And too bad Diverted doesn't work for me either because I'm a Android user. |

It's not necessary if you have another way to communicate with your Stranger (e.g., force, spoken code), or if you're using a recording instead of a live Stranger. |

It deserves to be mentioned that a new feature of this app also allows you to send the audience-generated phone number to your stranger, so they can confirm if necessary that that's their number, as an extra convincer.

Michael my issue is that I can perform some of the same effects minus the integrations. I have both apps so please don’t accuse me of not looking at both of the apps. I’m not misleading anyone. I have checked them and I can perform almost the same thing. Do you have both of the apps?

First, in addition to calling preprogrammed numbers you can also "call" one of many recordings. These are scripted in a way that makes it easy to interact with them as if they were live people. There are also voicemail recordings and "the number you have reached has been disconnected," etc. These can be used as convincers, so that the first number or two you call don't work, and then you get a live person or interactive recording for the last one. Second, The Stranger conveys information to your confederate through text messages if you pay $3.99 per month for that service. The information can include when you start your show, when a playing card has been selected, a word from a booktest, Wikitest, or other routine, a number, etc. It can include instructions for how to solve a Rubik's Cube to match the spectator's, for owners of The Stranger who also own Cubesmith. There are extra in-app purchases available for the ability to send information to your confederate that you or the spectator merely spoke out loud, using voice recognition; for an optimized number keypad; and for the ability to save lists of words for use in a booktest. Third, The Stranger comes with a huge and wonderful community. The Facebook group is extremely active with ideas and support, and there are WhatsApp groups in several countries that let you find a confederate at a moment's notice. So you're not only getting an app, you're getting a global network of confederates. Fourth, The Stranger works on iOS and Android. FaceTime is available on iOS, and video calling is coming soon for Android. Marc Kerstein and Jonathan Levit are both extremely creative and talented app developers, and both deserve a lot of credit for their products. If you're on a strict budget, have an iPhone, and only want to make a phone call, Diverter is fine. If you want a huge range of features and assistants all over the world (or if you have an Android), The Stranger is the way to go. |
