* AbandonedArea: The hospital has an entire wing that's completely empty, supposedly under renovations. Most of the movie's climax takes place there.
* AcceptableTargets: At one point, the protagonists ponder the idea of getting someone else to download the app so they can take a look at the EULA. Of course, siccing the demon on another victim is not something they want to do... until it turns out the grumpy old guy next to them at the bar is a ConspiracyTheorist, which makes it totally okay.

* KarmaHoudini: Surprisingly, [[spoiler:Quinn herself gets ''zero'' consequences for her premeditated murder attempt using medical supplies. Even if Sullivan has a history of being a creep, that's grounds for at the very least getting barred from ever working in medicine again.]]
Added DiffLines:
* PostModernMagik: The entire film is about a demonic phone app. It's eventually revealed the demon used to do his job using parchment in ancient times and simply updated the medium in the modern era.
* SimpleSolutionWontWork: Halfway through the movie, the heroes simply get a guy to hack into the app's files and change a few numbers around. Of course, it can't possibly be that easy and the dates revert back a few hours later.
