### 5/5 — 10/10

*2026-07-13, version 3.1.1*

Exactly what you would expect. I’ve had this app for a long time, it is so straightforward and helpful to keep track of the moon. 

Also customer service/support is superb. I really appreciate the consistency and the vibe! Keep up the great work!

### 2/5 — Crushes

*2026-06-13, version 3.1.1*

Had the app for six years. Recently it keeps crashing “subscription error, no products found”. Also on the description it says it’s sharable in family but it is not. It messed up family members’ paid subscription too.

### 1/5 — Is it disabled

*2026-05-31, version 3.1.1*

Clicked icon and won’t even open. Shows a big moon and then vanishes. 🌚

### 1/5 — What the heck?

*2026-04-10, version 3.1.1*

Today’s horoscope: “If there is something you wish to learn, try an online platform rather than a book. Technology is your friend. Resurrect that old workshop you have not had time for. Dust off that trusty notebook of yours. Take your education seriously, just for today. There is more to learn than you realize. Enlist a romantic study buddy.”  

Technology is my friend (not books) but I should dust off my “trusty notebook.” Enlist a “romantic study buddy” because we all know how effective that is for learning. Seriously, did AI write this?

### 5/5 — daily and weekly horoscopes are wonderful!

*2026-04-09, version 3.1.1*

I wish I could give whoever writes the horoscopes a hug! they're always so insightful and lovely

### 5/5 — Rising sign is wrong now

*2026-04-02, version 3.1.1*

At one time it was correct, Libra rising, changed itself to Virgo rising.
I received an email with the fix (re entered my birth information… I probably should have thought of that) and have changed my review. I’ve been using this app for years and it’s great!

### 2/5 — Rising sign is wrong now

*2026-03-21, version 3.1.1*

At one time it was correct, Libra rising, changed itself to Virgo rising.

### 1/5 — Not impressed

*2026-03-10, version 3.1.1*

Every tab you click you will get a subscription ad and a lot you can not access without it.

### 1/5 — Charges multiple times a year $15.99

*2026-03-05, version 3.1.1*

I have 2 total subscriptions on Apple, this app and Crunchyroll. While I did agreed to the $4.99/year, this app will randomly charge you $14.99 for no reason.

### 4/5 — No Zoom on Calendar?

*2026-02-15, version 3.1.1*

I do love your app. It's is so very helpful for laying out my monthly ritual calendar. I  appreciate being able to understand all of the planetary positioning when I write in my monthly new moon journal, and the astrological takes are often poignant in my life. 

So why four stars only? It's because of the inaccessibility of the lunar calendar. I get that sometimes available space influences the graphics final rendering and creates  difficult decisions to use smaller font fixes -- I'm a web and graphic designer as well -- but to not include the standard "pinch to zoom" feature so widely used in touch screen devices is purely frustrating. In my current workflow, I typically snap a shot of the calendar and zoom in there to see the dates. Wearing my glasses does not help. This is less than ideal for a number of reasons. 

I have been subscribing for a few years now, and have kept hoping you would institute this most basic of features. My design aesthetic is accessibility first. I would very much appreciate it if there was a way for the Moon Calendar to institute a similar protocol.

Thank you so much for listening. I really do enjoy your app. I appreciate all the work you've done to make it what it is so far.
