7 years on the App Store. 104 updates.
An entire year of development.
Hello. Hello. Hello! Jonathan Levit here, creator of The Stranger.
In 2019, The Stranger was built on a simple premise — call someone you don't know and have them reveal a playing card. I never could have imagined that it would become a global phenomenon.
Worldwide, thousands of performers have embraced The Stranger and allowed this simple premise to become so much more.
It can be a full routine. One minute to eighteen minutes long. It's entirely up to you, the audience, your Stranger, and how you are feeling in the moment on stage.
The app was built considering you as a performer. What makes the effect more convincing? What makes it easier? What removes any concern of someone not picking up the phone?
Now, it's all been carefully thought out even further to give you total freedom balanced with total confidence — and the result is something bigger than it has ever been before.
This isn't just a magic trick. It's an event.
After 104 updates and upgrades since its launch, The Stranger has now gone through the most important, comprehensive, and consequential change yet.
Everything has been re-engineered and redesigned.
Stranger X is here.
It's easier to use. Faster. Streamlined and even more rock solid than before. It's focused on what you need as a performer.
Your possibilities have expanded massively. You now have the ability to call anyone over video, whether on iPhone or Android, and add as many Strangers as you need.
And that's just the beginning. You will never be in a situation where you can't achieve the most incredible results.
Stranger X is what you have come to love and expect, and now it has been reborn.
"The crowd lost their mind. You handed me a script. Every single action was EXACTLY as you said it would be… Like we all just witnessed a miracle that none of us could explain."

New in X
Live Stranger or Conversation Recording. One Convincer, two, or none. Auto Advance. Cellular, FaceTime Audio or VoIP. The freely selected card. It's all set from one simplified screen — then one press of the dial button and you're in the routine.
New in X
The moment the audience screams "They're FaceTiming you!" it stops being a trick and becomes a shared experience. Video calls now work with iPhone and Android. No more limitations.
New in X
When a live Stranger isn't possible, call a Conversation Recording — stage-tested by hundreds of performers over thousands of shows. Use the built-in library or create your own directly in Stranger X: record with a partner or on your own, preview, trim, re-record and publish.
New in X
A basement green room under two feet of concrete. A ballroom on the fortieth floor where the guest Wi-Fi wants a room number you don't have. A cruise ship. Download what you need before you go, and Stranger X performs without a connection. No bars, no network, no difference to the audience.
New in X
Share your Conversation Recordings and Convincers with the community, keep them to yourself, or send them privately to another Stranger. Download what other performers have made.
New in X
Transcribe your recording and rehearse line by line with the script following along. Scrub anywhere and the script follows. Learn your pacing and the exact moment your next line lands. Tutorials are built right into the app.
Transcription runs on an API key you supply and control.
New in X
Join your regional WhatsApp group of fellow Strangers directly from the app — or request a new group where none exists, with one tap.
Add-on
Keep your phone in your pocket. Bring up Stranger X on a spectator's phone with one tap of an NFC tag and perform the full routine on their device. Borrowed Phone is sold separately, or get both together with Stranger X with Borrowed Phone.
Any card, freely named — no force, ever. The Reveal Message. The fake number with its city. The confirm-receipt tap before you dial. One or two Convincers with region-correct audio across forty-six call regions. Auto Advance through your Strangers and on to a recording, so the reveal always happens. Full integration with Nexus and Nexus Now (sold separately) for birthdays, duplicated drawings, lotto numbers and more.
After purchase you'll receive an email with your personal voucher code and a link to download Stranger X from the App Store. Register a new account in the app and enter your voucher code during setup.
iPhone only. Offline mode lets you perform without a connection — download your recordings before the show. Support is answered by Jonathan himself at support@jonathanlevitpresents.com.
