What App of the Dead does
Every belief, side by side
Walk a path through Judaism, Christianity, Islam, Buddhism, Hinduism, Norse, Egyptian, Greek and more. See where the world's oldest answers agree and where they diverge.
Learn through play
Multiple-choice, matching, and true/false quizzes make Olam Ha-Ba, Valhalla, reincarnation, and the Duat stick. No dry textbook reading.
The Oracle
Chat with Anubis, Odin, Hecate, Azrael and other guides. On iPhones with Apple Intelligence and iOS 26 or later the Oracle answers at once with Apple's on-device model; other iPhones download a model once. Your questions never leave your phone.
Built to keep you learning
Every tradition is a path map of story-card lessons. A Daily Omen asks one question a day from any faith, streaks turn five minutes into a habit, and XP and badges mark each path you finish.
Respectful by design
Every tradition is presented neutrally, with equal weight and no proselytizing. This is education, not conversion.

About App of the Dead
Where will your soul go when you die? Six of the world's oldest traditions are about to tell you.
NEW IN APP OF THE DEAD 2.0: THE JUDGMENT
Nine questions, about two minutes. Thoth reads the record of your life, Charon asks for his coin, Odin asks how your story ends, and Anubis lays your heart on the scale against the feather of Ma'at. Then the verdict: where you would go by the rules of Egyptian, Greek, Norse, Aztec, Zoroastrian and Buddhist belief, from the Field of Reeds to Valhalla, Mictlan to the House of Song. Share your Soul Card and dare your friends to face it.
22 AFTERLIVES, ONE APP
App of the Dead turns comparative religion into a game. Judaism, Christianity, Islam, Hinduism, Buddhism, Sikhism, the Egyptian Duat, the Greek underworld, Norse Hel and Valhalla, Aztec Mictlan, Zoroastrianism, Shinto, Taoism and more. Each tradition is a path of short story-card lessons on a map of its own, ending in a mastery test.
LEARN THROUGH PLAY
Multiple-choice, matching and true-or-false questions with instant feedback. XP, streaks, achievements, Game Center leaderboards, and a Daily Omen: one question a day from any tradition.
TALK TO THE GODS

Frequently asked questions
How much does App of the Dead cost?
The full Judaism path is free forever, with no account and no time limit. Premium unlocks all 21 other paths and unlimited Oracle chat: $19.99/year or $2.99/month in the US.
Is there a one-time purchase instead of a subscription?
Yes. Ultimate Enlightenment is a one-time lifetime unlock if you would rather own everything outright. You can also buy individual belief systems one at a time.
Does the app work offline?
Lessons, quizzes and the Judgment work offline. The Oracle runs on your iPhone: instantly with Apple Intelligence on iOS 26 or later, or after a one-time model download on other iPhones.
Is my data private?
Yes. Oracle conversations are processed on your iPhone, by Apple's on-device model or the downloaded one, so your spiritual questions never go to a chat server.
Is this trying to convert me to a religion?
No. App of the Dead presents all 22 traditions neutrally and with equal respect. It is built for education and comparison, not conversion, and is not affiliated with any religious organization.
Which devices does it support?
App of the Dead runs on iPhone and iPad with iOS 18.2 or later. The Oracle's instant answers need an iPhone with Apple Intelligence on iOS 26 or later; other iPhones download a model once.
Can I try it before paying?
Yes. Finish the Judgment and every path and every god opens for seven days if you have not bought anything yet, with nothing to sign up for and nothing to cancel. The full Judaism path is free forever, and the first lesson of every other path plays free. Subscriptions renew automatically through your Apple ID and can be cancelled anytime in Settings.
