Actions. Aligned. Starwise is astrology that does something — built around real Vedic Jyotish, the 5,000-year-old system rooted in actual star positions. Your chart is calculated from your exact time, date, and place of birth, so what you read is genuinely yours, never generic. Featured on ELLE. Built by a husband-and-wife team. Made for people who want astrology to be useful — not just entertaining. --WHAT'S INSIDE-- DAILY JYOTISH HOROSCOPE A personal forecast from your exact Vedic birth chart, not just your Sun sign. Warm, specific, free of filler. TRANSITS, PLANET BY PLANET (NEW) Sun, Moon, Mercury, Venus, Mars, Jupiter, Saturn — see what each planet is doing for you, day by day. Clear guidance on what to act on and what to hold. PHRASE OF THE DAY One line to carry with you — gentle, inspiring, something to anchor your day. DETAILED FORECAST Each day unpacked: what it means, what to lean into, what to watch for. Dive as deep as you want. COMPATIBILITY Check the alignment between any two profiles. Partner, family, friend, colleague. Love, work, and everything in between. 5 PROFILES, ONE APP Follow up to five people you care about. Read the day for your partner, your kids, your best friend — all in one place. --WHY JYOTISH?-- Western astrology drifted away from the actual sky centuries ago. Jyotish — also called Vedic astrology — stays synced with real star positions, uses 27 Nakshatras (not just 12 signs), and includes dasha periods and remedies. It's astrology that takes itself seriously. --WHO IT'S FOR-- Couples who want to understand each other better. Anyone curious about Vedic or Jyotish astrology. People who want a daily practice, not a once-a-month scroll. Aries, Taurus, Gemini, Cancer, Leo, Virgo, Libra, Scorpio, Sagittarius, Capricorn, Aquarius, Pisces — every chart is welcome, every chart is different. --FROM THE FOUNDERS-- We're Lalita & Jayananda — a couple building the tools we wished existed. Our goal is simple: practical, honest astrology that helps you and the people you love take aligned action in work, love, and life.

The idea of setting the daily alarm according to my astrological sign sounds interesting to me. But, as it stands. I can’t afford to pay any kind of subscription, due to the fact that I’m Blind and disabled, and on a fixed income. It would be awesome if the full app was free for those of us who just can’t afford to pay a subscription. Anyway, keep up the good work. ### 1/5 — Not so great anymore *2021-08-05* I haven’t done the latest update but I’ve noticed that there are many days that there is only one horoscope listed and the other topics are left blank. Some days when I click the app to read my horoscope the app will open quickly then shut down. ### 2/5 — Agree with Worthless & Sad *2021-04-19* I purchased this app 7 years ago and it was always one of my favorite! This new version is so frustrating and disappointing. I have deleted it. PLEASE return to previous version!!! **Developer response:** Dear alabastermoonstone, thanks for your feedback. We've decided to develop our app, which includes new and unique features. We would love to hear your ideas of current version improvements. Please write us support@starwise.app ### 2/5 — New updates *2021-03-29* I agree with this statement. I really do like this app but not giving my personal info for my horoscope. I have had this app for many years. However, I don’t really want to give my name, birth place, or current city to get my horoscope. Just too much personal info just to get my horoscope. I’ve always thought this was a great app but this is asking to much. We should be able to enter the information if we want or skip it and go on to our horoscope. I will raise my rating if you can do this. I will give it some time will delete if we can’t get this option. Thank you in advance. **Developer response:** Dear Peach11111, thanks for your feedback. We're asking for a non-personalised information, like city of birth, time and date - this information is vital to build personalised horoscopes and transits. We would love to hear your ideas of current version improvement. Please write to us support@starwise.app ### 1/5 — Why update? *2021-02-07* I paid to upgrade to pro for no ads and no more in app purchases, and now they updated it and made it different and there are more in app purchases. I am disappointed and nothing was wrong with the original pro app. **Developer response:** Dear qwertysqghs, thanks for your feedback.  We've decided to develop our app, which includes new and unique features.  We would love to hear your ideas of current version improvement. Please write to us support@starwise.app ### 1/5 — You destroyed this app *2021-01-07* I really liked this app. I read it pretty much every day and thoroughly enjoyed it. But the update has completely ruined it. The app no longer functions well and it is complete garbage. It is so bad I actually deleted it. I’m sooo disappointed. Thanks for ruining a good thing. If I could have given it zero stars I would have. **Developer response:** Dear ghaas, thanks for your feedback. We've decided to develop our app, which includes new and unique features. We would love to hear your ideas of current version improvement. Please write to us support@starwise.app ### 1/5 — Worthless and sad *2021-01-04* The new update threw the entire app away. It used to be my favourite app, I consulted it daily but now I am deleting it. I wish that I could rollback this newest update and get any other version back, even the oldest version, because this shouldn’t have been an update. It should have been released as a completely different app. It doesn’t have the same daily/monthly/yearly horoscopes, and they have completely removed the Chinese zodiac to try to sell some worthless map thing? Also the new look is nauseating. As a busy person who didn’t want to play with all of the other toy zodiac apps that had genies or crystal balls, but instead just wanted a simple and beautiful app to quickly check my horoscope, I am devastated. Don’t waste your time or money. Get the lite version, it is still like the original version, but unfortunately without Chinese as well. :( Time to start looking for an alternative to hopefully somewhat replace what this app once was; straightforward, accurate and reliable. Now it is just pointless nonsense. **Developer response:** Dear The_Magpie, thanks for your feedback.  We've decided to develop our app, which includes new and unique features.  We would love to hear your ideas of current version improvement. Please write to us support@starwise.app ### 1/5 — Fail *2020-12-31, version 3.2.3* Not sure why after paying for this app years ago, I now have to subscribe to get all the features. I paid for full access for life. This shouldn’t change because you’ve updated the app! It’s also lost numerous features - where are the monthly horoscopes? The Chinese zodiac? The compatibility readings? These features set this app apart from others, now it is quite generic. ### 5/5 — West Brom Gallis *2020-12-22, version 3.2.1* Love this particular app... gives me guidance on specific areas of my live including career and love life. I like the fact that there is different advice for singles & couples when it comes to love. Gives me the choice of reading my Chinese horoscope as well and both readings give the option of daily, weekly and a long term forecast. This app is much better than the one I used previously and I also like the colours and it’s layout. ### 2/5 — Rooster yearly not working *2020-06-27, version 3.2.1* What happened to the yearly broadcast for the rooster sign?! It doesn’t open ## Frequently asked questions about Starwise ### What does Starwise: Astrology・Horoscope do?
