Software Reviews and Criticism

  ThisIsReallyIt

  I’ve been slowly studying astrology for 6 years now and recently decided to pick up the pace. I’m using iPhemeris along with my IO software every day to write a daily instagram blog. I look at the Aspect Calendar, then the Sky Now section; first the chart, then I look at the midpoints, aspects, grid and points, then back at the chart while I’m writing. I really like the options of iPhemeris' wheel chart! Nice work! When something comes up for me, I’m enjoying the transit calendar to check in with what’s happening. I use my IO Interpreter, Sprite, and Edition software for a quick Transit Search in weather on Stations, Sign Ingresses, Moon’s Quarters and Eclipses list, it is available on iPhemeris on the ephemeris page although, I’m familiar with the list the other software has. I only look in my hardcopy ephermis once in a while. So, I like iPhemeris! I use both versions of iPhemeris: on my computer and on my phone. Only suggestion I have at this point of my use and knowledge of astrology, is to lighten the retrograde cycles so it’s easier scan, similar to hardcopy ephemeris layout. I love the price, I love what iPhemeris has to offer in my daily writings, it’s my primary software for my everyday use. Thanks! Thank you very much!

  The Big Bang (pun intended!) for your buck!!!

  iPhemeris is a wonderful astrology application. Given the competition, I really believe this is a brilliant companion for any student or professional astrologer. Lots of tools and functionalities that are exceptional, and the charts are composed exceptionally well. I genuinely believe iPhemeris produces the most strikingly beautiful horoscopes compared to other astrology software, and you honestly cannot beat the price point. With that said, there are always more features that could be added that I hope will come to fruition in later versions, and if that involves an extra in-app purchase, I'm all for it. Some features I'd personally love to see are: Lunar phases listed for charts, Aspect patterns/shapes listed for charts, Toggle on/off for aspect angles without having to change/delete the orb for an angle, the ablitiy to export charts electronically on Windows without having to print or use the iPhone versoin, and when printing/exporting a chart, combining the aspect grid and points (elements, modalities, dignities) with the horoscope on the same page OR making the grid, aspects, points, midpoints use only one page. (If there's a way to make this happen that I'm not aware of, I'd love to know it.) A big shout out to the developer of iPhemeris for creating such a beautiful and user-friendly application! I look forward to seeing later iterations.

  I really like this software

  I really like iPhemeris. It covers the vast majority of my needs, and I have a stack of books on my desk to cover many of the others. I've bought all the available extras, as well, because this suits my needs as an intermediate astrologer who is gradually going professional. Features I like a lot: - the built-in Ephemeris, and the graphic ephemeris (costs extra). - The ability to compare three charts simultaneously, either side-by-side (max 2 charts) or nexted (2 charts now, to look at transits). - the ability to store charts that work on my phone. - the ability to track transits over different time scales (minute, 10 minutes, hour, day, 7 days, month, year) - the choice of house system - the ability to turn various planets on and off - the ability to adjust orb sizes. Features I would like in future versions: - buttons to turn on/off for Moon Mansions, Decans, 12th parts of Zodiac signs, and Bounds/Terms (Egyptian, Ptolemaic, Egyptian) - Automatic calculation of Hygromanteia Moon-Day number - Automatic calculation on "Sky Now" chart of Astrological Hour - The ability to set phone alarms for specific times for electional astrology - A way to enter horary chart question and time - A field in the chart database for including birth time data quality rating (AAA, AA, A, B, C, D) and a source.

  Long Time User

  I started using iPhemeris many years ago when I downloaded it onto my iPhone. I loved it and still do. I was happy to see their product come out on the Windows Version. I now have it on my PC. The iPhone and the PC are both synced to my iCloud, so I have shared information on both applications. For my use, it has all of the elements that I need.I WOULD love to see an upgrade that would include AstroCartography (HINT, Big HINT). I would pay for that upgrade! I have to switch to another source to get that information.
