The beloved desktop app is finally on iOS! AstroClock is a "live" Astrological chart wheel which is updated every minute. You'll see the Ascendant and other cusps change minute-by-minute, and the current position of the planets gradually moving. AstroClock calculates your natal chart positions and lists live transits to your own chart as they are happening. The natal chart planets can be displayed around the clock in a second ring so that you can easily see aspects, or you can put the natal chart in the centre the usual way and see the transits gradually move around your chart. The look of the chart is customisable, and it even changes colour when the Moon goes void-of-course. The perfect tool for horary astrology and an amazing way to learn how astrology works in the moment • Accurate wheel • 6 House systems • Accurate lists of positions • Slider to zoom backwards and forwards in time • Geocentric or Heliocentric positions • Tropical and Sidereal Zodiac • Aspect Lines • Instant Void of Course Moon indicator • Calculates and displays live transits to your natal chart • Customisable look, aspects, orbs and more • Configures itself to your location • Automatic time-zone and daylight time adjustment • Transiting aspects • Scanning ahead of transit aspects

Verdict

The call

The clearest difference is price: CW Residential at Free against AstroClock's $4.99. CW Residential also leads on rating (4.5 vs 2.7). AstroClock's advantage is update cadence (every 2 months vs every 9 months) and chart position (#197 vs unranked). On ads, in-app purchases, device support and iOS requirement there is nothing between them.

ReceptionRating · Positive reviews · Number of ratings

CW Residential holds the better App Store score, 4.5 against 2.7. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: AstroClock has 13 ratings behind it against 2, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews complicate that: 38% of AstroClock's written reviews are positive against 29% of CW Residential's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.

UpkeepUpdate frequency

AstroClock ships an update every 2 months, CW Residential every 9 months. The most recent releases landed on September 22, 2026 and September 8, 2026 respectively.
