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.
