HoroClock turns the real-time positions of the planets into a beautiful clock face — astronomy and astrology, alive on your screen. The hour and minute hands tell the time. Around them, the Sun, Moon, Mercury, Venus, Mars, Jupiter, and Saturn orbit at their true ecliptic longitudes, calculated from astronomical algorithms. LIVING STARFIELD Over 1,600 stars from the HYG Star Database glow in their actual spectral colors. Bright stars shimmer with a halo effect that intensifies after dark. The sky tint shifts in real time with sunrise and sunset at your location. During meteor-shower seasons, shooting stars streak from the correct radiant point. SERIOUS ASTROLOGY TOOLS • Tropical and Sidereal zodiac (Lahiri, Babylonian Fixed, custom SVP) • 4 house systems: Whole Sign, Placidus, Equal, Regiomontanus • Ascendant, Midheaven, Part of Fortune, Lunar Nodes • Toggle Uranus, Neptune, and Pluto on or off • Fixed-star display on or off YOUR LOCAL SKY HoroClock calculates the Ascendant and Midheaven from your latitude and longitude, so the chart reflects the sky above you, right now. A CLOCK YOU ACTUALLY USE Leave it running and glance at it throughout the day — the planets drift slowly along the zodiac, the sky color shifts, and occasionally a shooting star crosses the dial. Double-tap to switch to a detailed list of all planetary positions. No ads. No subscription. One-time purchase.

Verdict

The call

The clearest difference is update cadence: HoroClock at every 10 days against Zombie Tarot's every 9 months. HoroClock also leads on chart position (#187 vs unranked) and price ($2.99 vs $3.99). Zombie Tarot's advantage is iOS requirement (8.0 vs 16.0). On review sentiment, ads, in-app purchases and monetization model there is nothing between them.
