Amazing!
Perfect I Ching app for me— straight to the point and easy to use, with wonderful options for translations and casting.
Scholarly and restrained
This app has everything I need to explore and record my interactions. So far, it’s flawless.
Sincerely the best I-Ching app on any platform
The method by which hexagrams are generated is eerily prescient, thanks to the extensive work Brian has done to bring the superior yarrow stalk method into the digital age. You can also cast your own hexagrams and the app will help you log your reading.
The translations for each hexagram are thoughtful and brilliant and open doors for reflection I wasn’t aware needed opening.
The app is austere and simple, and that’s to its credit. It loads quickly, has a full library of hexagrams that can be searched, a record-keeping system and a easy backup method that doesn’t rely on an expensive cloud system.
I have purchased this app on multiple platforms and will continue to recommend it to others. I’ve emailed Brian with questions and suggestions before and he’s been quick to reply.
I am eternally grateful. ☺️

Super user friendly edition of a classic.
If you are an I Ching user then this is one of the easiest and most succinct apps.
Of course it’s I Ching lite but as ever it’s still I Ching precise and I always have a well thumbed edition of the Wilhelm translation standing by if I need to go deeper on any reading.
Highly recommended.

Excellent app, best one around!
I’ve been using it since day one, and it has become perfect over time. All the other I Ching apps I’ve tested are a sorry joke compared to it. Don’t waste your time and plunge for it if you’re serious about using this oracle.
Response from developer
❤️❤️❤️ Nico, you've been giving me great and constructive feedback since 2016! Thank you so much for this review. I've sent you a message with a little easter egg for super users like you.
The best I-Ching app out there!
I’ve tried my share of apps for the I-Ching, and this app hits the nail on the head in most regards. Simple and clean UI, multiple casting methods supported, and excellent translations make this my go-to app for consulting the I-Ching
Really like the app, but…
Sometimes tapping the Yin Yang button selects and highlights it and that can cause it to stop registering taps.
Also, is there a way to clear the “Ask” box for a new inquiry rather than manually deleting the text? That would be a useful feature.

It took me a year, but your wish is granted! I've added a "Clear" button to version 14.0, released today. Such a good improvement, I cannot believe I didn't think of this in the 8 years I've been developing the app. So thank you for the suggestion AND the reminder of the power of cognitive diversity and the wisdom of crowds. I also fixed (MOSTLY) that problem with selecting and highlighting the YinYang button. I can't disable iOS "Long Press" there, so if you hold and press on the button it'll still get a highlight, but the more casual highlights when the screen mistook a button press won't happen now. Changed the element from a hyperlink to a themed button, and that fixed it. Again, thanks, that one was bugging me as well. Please can I have five stars now????? ;-)
Best I Ching app
Thank you, for all your brilliant skill and time devoted to creating this app. 🙏
Quality App. Developer very responsive
He was open to criticism and took all feedback seriously. Very few people like that. Please support. Not all app developers are out to make your money and squeeze you dry. There are some that are driven by a sense of mission.
I feel that this developer wants to help change your life.
We can debate whether I-Ching is pseudoscience but to those that believe in apps that are
- Quality
- Ease of use
- Ability to effect change as a user through feed back
Then you are at the correct place.
Once again this is a unbiased review that I leave here. As of 2march2021.
If ever anything changes I wouldn’t hesitate to email developer and leave a honest review as I see it. I am sure he would do his utmost and bend over his back to improve.
Yours
Siao.

Amazingly good
I used to consult the I Ching 40 years ago by using yarrow sticks and Richard Wilhelm’s book. I have kept the yarrow sticks but find now my old fingers cannot manipulate the sticks as I used to. I was amazed to find this app. It is simple and easy to use. I like the journal facility too. Altogether a pleasure to use.

It is easy to use. Journal good feature
Superbly designed app
This is a beautifully designed app - no faux parchment graphics, just a clear, elegant and simple presentation of the readings. If I could change one thing, it would be great in readings with changing lines to be able to tap on the hexagrams to toggle between them, and maybe be able to swipe left and right through the pages of the reading. Otherwise, this is easily the best and most useable I-Ching app I’ve seen.

An important thing
This is a great rendering of the Book of Changes and in no way lessens the beauty and profundity of the book. I think Carl Jung would use this and John Cage too, if they were around and had iPads! Thanks.
Good
After using the app for a long time, I had some problems with recent versions. I was frustrated so I left a review reflecting that frustration. But then Mr Fitzgerald appended the most gentlemanly response I've ever seen, so I'm ashamed to leave the original review as it was. It is a very useful and functional way to use the I Ching (I used to carry a miniature paper copy + notebook !) and I highly recommend it to everyone. Peace and love 🌿
