User reviews

it’s my go to app for gardening

I’ve used this app for years, and I depend on it to align my planting to the moon cycle. It works, despite the changing weather patterns. I am so grateful the developer makes it available to all of us and keeps improving it.

App

I just needed to see sun, moon and planet action, news papers are not any good, perfect!

Fun

If I knew more, this might have 5 stars. Or if there were links to tutorials.

It's great to open and see a little of what is happening overhead.

Not for iPad mini

Size for the iPad mini is way to small. Does not fit to full size .

Overall great

The only inly two issues I have is...
1. I wish it would have the best times to lay stone/gravel.
2. I wish it would send notifications for specific dates.
