### 1/5 — Poorly designed

*2025-11-29*

This app does not include the southern hemisphere. Why would I bother? Pity, it’s a good app but seasons are opposite.

### 1/5 — Subscription stopped working suddenly

*2025-10-20*

Used this app for years without problems. All of a sudden, I can no longer access any future dates and subscription information is not accessible. My current sub does not expire until end of December. Clearly something has broken. Very disappointing.

### 1/5 — Maria Thun nicht übereinstimmend

*2025-09-23*

Deswegen werde ich Abo kündigen.

### 4/5 — A very useful app

*2025-09-18*

We have a small orchard that we have planted over the last few years, always using this as a guide, with great success; we will be renewing this app annually as it is such a help.

### 1/5 — Not enough info

*2025-03-05*

Cant find what you need when you need it

### 2/5 — Can’t see the month ahead

*2024-01-16*

I’ve used the printed calendar for a couple of years and subscribed to this thinking it would show the same data. It promises to help me plan, so how do I see the month ahead in table form? I can only see how to plan my week by scrolling through from day to day - surely there is a full table somewhere?

### 2/5 — Localização

*2022-10-20*

Não sei se o aplicativo está regulado para meu hemisfério e localização e além disso não encontro forma clara de ver ou mudar essa informação, gerando insegurança nas recomendações

### 2/5 — Ich verstehe leider kein Niederländisch

*2022-09-12*

Schade, dass die App nur 2 Tage auf Deutsch war. Jetzt ist sie trotz erneutem Installieren auf Niederländisch. Man kann die Sprache auch nirgends einstellen. So bringt mir das nichts!

### 1/5 — Viel zu wenig Details

*2021-10-31*

Ich kann leider weder das Tierkreiszeichen sehen, vor dem der Mond steht, noch die Mondphase noch welche Planeten gerade eine Rolle spielen. Das finde ich einen gravierenden Mangel und deswegen kündige ich das Abo wieder. Wenn Sie mich als Kunden wieder gewinnen wollen, teilen Sie mir gerne mit, wenn all diese Information jetzt in der App vorhanden sind!

### 3/5 — Keine Alternative zur Buch-/Papier-Ausgabe

*2021-10-29*

ich wollte die App, um die gesamten kosmischen und Planetenstände zu erfahren…
Diese sind in der Buchform enthalten, hier aber nicht… (Oder irgendwo versteckt, wo ich sie bisher noch nicht gefunden habe…)
Schade, denn ich wollte wissen wie einfach die Stimmung im Kosmos und der Natur ist und nicht nur einen Aussaat-Kalender haben…
(Ja, ich habe das Abo, also dieses Manko ist nicht nur in der Testversion.)
