Frequently Asked Questions
How does GhostAlias generate a code name?
Every tap of Generate randomly pairs one word from a curated modifier bank (1,900+ words like OBSIDIAN, SILENT, ARMORED) with one word from a curated noun bank (1,500+ words like FALCON, ANTENNA, REARGUARD). That's more than 2.9 million possible two-word combinations, styled after real military/intelligence operation names and the fictional program names from films like the Bourne series.
Can I get the same code name twice?
It's possible — each generation is an independent random pick, so repeats can happen occasionally, the same way rolling two dice can repeat. If a result doesn't feel right, just tap Generate again.
How do I save or use the name I get?
Tap the generated name on screen to copy it straight to your clipboard, then paste it wherever you need it — a doc, a chat, a ticket title, anywhere.
How do I turn off the voice and sound effects?
Tap the speaker icon in the top-right corner of the screen. It toggles between sound on and muted, and GhostAlias remembers your choice the next time you open the app.
What is the Sophomoric Pack, and is it R-rated?
It's an optional one-time in-app purchase (US$1.99) that adds a second word bank of 652,273 playground-style code names like POOPY PANTS and GOOFY WEDGIE. It is not R-rated: no swearing, no adult content, no innuendo, just kid-style potty humor. If you're looking for spicy, this isn't that pack. The free Standard mode stays exactly as it is.
How do I unlock the Sophomoric Pack and switch to it?
Tap the lock icon at the top of the screen (next to the speaker), review the pack, and tap Unlock. After you've bought it, that icon becomes a smiley that toggles between Standard and Sophomoric mode. It's a one-time purchase, not a subscription.
I already bought the pack. How do I get it back on a new iPhone or after reinstalling?
Open the purchase screen (tap the lock icon) and tap Restore Purchases. You'll need to be signed in with the same Apple ID you used to buy it. You are never charged twice.
How do I get a refund for the Sophomoric Pack?
Purchases are handled entirely by Apple, so refund requests go through Apple, not us. Visit reportaproblem.apple.com, sign in, and choose the purchase.
Does GhostAlias need microphone access?
No. GhostAlias never listens to anything. The voice you hear is synthesized speech generated on your device using Apple's built-in text-to-speech, not a recording, and GhostAlias never requests microphone access.
Does GhostAlias need an internet connection?
Not to generate names. The word generation, the animation, and the synthesized voice all run entirely on your device and work offline. A connection is only needed to buy or restore the optional Sophomoric Pack, and that goes through Apple's App Store.
Is my data collected or shared anywhere?
No. GhostAlias has no accounts, no analytics, no ads, and no tracking. If you buy the optional pack, Apple processes the payment and we never see your payment details. See our Copyright & Privacy page for full details.
Is GhostAlias available for iPad or Android?
GhostAlias is currently iPhone-only. It will run on an iPad in compatibility mode, but the layout is designed and tuned for iPhone screens.
