Astro Gold App Reviews

66 add

Work in progress

Astro Gold in its current state is obviously far from perfect. However, calculations appear accurate and options are seemingly plentiful albeit somewhat archaically named. Before I would have spent any money on it I would have preferred to have seen a logical, solid interface for access to the chart library. A glaring omission is the lack of nodal aspects in the report. While descriptions of some aspects are surprisingly short and naive (ok, I understand completely that I am expected to know something about astrology, but I do so thats not the point), when the chart shows that nodal aspects are recognized the report blatantly states "no aspects exist for the north node". If its a square, that would be a correct observation, but for the south node it will say the same even though the orb is a mere 1.5 degrees. Looking forwards to extensive interface and report upgrades in other words.

Amazing that it exists--desperately needs iCloud sync

Its astonishing to have a program this powerful and professional for $30 compared to the $300 for the desktop version--that doesnt even run on Macs natively. That mere fact gives 4 stars right off the bat. For me personally, it is a fairly glaring oversight--now that iCloud has existed for over a year--that this app doesnt save and sync chart data across multiple devices. The manual process is laborious and has to be done repeatedly and for every folder individually. This is why iCloud was invented. I assume/hope the developers are working on the integration.

New version 2.1 more excellent improvements

The addition in version 1.0.5 of a dynamic, or time-stepping feature made this program the best astrology app that I have seen or tried, and I raised my rating then from 4 stars to 5. With the latest improvements this program has gotten even better. Although there is some additional functionality that would be useful, Astro Golds stellar graphics, range of features, and ease of use place it clearly above the competition. As a professional astrologer, having this handy tool on my iPad is wonderful. Highly recommend. Astro Gold started out with gorgeous graphics, and a simple and quick method for producing secondary progressed charts, solar returns, and composite charts; with the recent additions of a time-stepping feature and solar arc directions this program continues on its path of positive improvement. This is the most expensive astrology app out there that I am aware of - and, in my opinion well worth it.

Astrology app

Not a very good app, very expensive for what it is, a lot of trouble creating a chart, editing and impossible to delete bad chart ( that you create due to all the issues you encounter trying to create one.) When I finally created one, the sings for the houses kept repeting. For example had Scorpio in house 1 and 2, then Sagitarious, Capricon was missing and then ir jumped to Aquarious in house 4. I dont reccomend buying it and now I dont even know how to return it.

Excellent App!!

Ive had this app for 5 months now and absolutely love it! Its accurate, intuitive, and has become my primary go-to program for astrology. The owner seems to really care about producing the best quality product, and is constantly working on keeping that bar high. Having a tri-wheel option would make it perfect for me, but even so, I wish I could give it more stars...money well spent!!

love it

I love this app, it was worth EVERY PENNY. Its perfect for any consulting astrologer on the go. The comprehensiveness is impressive, and the level of customization is really really excellent. The interps are great, too. I wish it were possible to export the interpretive reports and/or print them, that is the only drawback. I would gladly pay a licensing fee to have this capability. Otherwise, love love love it.

I hate this app

Normally Id only give a one star rating to an app that didnt work. This one does, but I feel so ripped off for $30. If youre a beginning astrologer and need a simple chart with interpretations, this one does that, but so do a bunch of FREE or inexpensive apps. If youre an advanced astrologer and want Arabic parts, antiscia, dignities, fixed stars, asteroids, or any user-defined points, this app will NOT do those! However, several free or inexpensive apps will do them. So I just spent $30 for a very pretty chart...which is the one thing this app does well. Im sorry that I wasted my money on this, and I hope that you wont.

Excellent, 1st class astrology software!

This is the real deal. Simple to use, great set of features, including secondary progressions, and composite charts. I love the fact that you can fine tune a chart or advance transit charts by increments; minutes, hours, days, weeks. Great set of basic interpretations also.

a small bug

Hi Astro gold. I just bought your app. Its the neatest and most user friendly atrology app I ever used. And I spotted a small bug while using it. The Exchange Chart button between chart1 and chart2 was clickable when I was in single chart mode. And when I clicked it, the app just crushed. And it sometimes is just clickable in the single chart mode. It will be perfect it you could fix it soon or in your next build. Thank you.

Perfect for the iPad, iPhone and iPod Touch

As a professional astrologer, I find AstroGold the ideal tool for chart analysis, especially when traveling, or wanting quick feedback for a client. The GUI is well done, chart creation is very fast on the iPhone, iPad or iPod Touch, report writer is very helpful, and developers are very responsive to queries, as well as continuing to improve the app.

Please fix this

I like the app and I have it on both my iPhone 5 and my iPad and use it regularly and up until recently I havent had any problems with it but now I noticed that the exact same chart on Both devises had differences but still had the exact information. It will get a 5 star rate when this is fixed because its a great app

A fantastic App. An astrologers dream. Calculates Natal, transits and progressions. Includes ephemeris, atlas and reports. Who would have thought,10 years ago, that you could have carried a pocket chart maker.

stay away from v3.2.4

It does not work!!!! I made the mistake of upgrading to this version on both iPad and iPhone 5S. On my iPhone, it exits every time I try to view a chart. I cannot even open Astro Gold on my iPad.

Please update

I love this app I use it everyday, I just updated it today and it crashes when I hit view. Please fix soon.

Crashes on open

Had this app for awhile and think its excellent. However, latest update wont open. I have the latest iPad and OS. Fix, please!

Its back!

Thank you for the quick fix of the bug in 3.2.4. V3.2.5 looks great. Very, very nice app!

Thanks

Great app and great customer support

Love!

This app is worth every penny! I absolutely love how convenient it is to cast charts and check current transits. Im pretty sure I use it every day! Everything Ive ever wanted in an astrology app.

Reports Have Strange Symbols

When pulling a report, the planets symbols are replaced with other strange symbols and numbers. Otherwise, the app is great and an excellent backup to the full-length computer program.

Awesome

Would love better, longer interpretations including for the nodes, asteroids, etc.
