This program is for practicing and student astrologers and does not do automated readings. Some knowledge of astrology is required. This program has been tested against the Swiss Ephemeris for accuracy. Comments related to calculations have been the result of incorrect data entry by the user. If you are entering time zone data found on the Internet be aware that unless they are for astrology you will need to flip the +/- sign. Internet time zones are usually for finding the time at a location in the world when GMT is known and planetary engines require the GMT time given the birth time.
Please visit the JyotishTools channel on YouTube for a demo of the program.

I find this program to be so difficult to use, that it is basically unusable.

When the app does load, it later crashes. It is stuck in portrait mode, no landscape view. I am looking for a good astrology android astrology app!

As advertised, generates natal charts on the go; easier to carry phone than computer; faster than logging into astro.com. Great for use when studying.

Where are bi-wheels or chart comparison or graphs? Astrodienst online does this much for free

For $5, the least we can ask for are comparison charts. Also save is confusing, end up with duplicate charts.

Accurate compared to Solar Fire. Only wish it had page dedicated to aspects along with a page for wheel. Love it!

Amazing! I find all calculations to be accurate for cusps & positions. If having problems check your data entry! Google Maps better than any Atlas!

House positions are WAY OFF! checked against solar fire. Uninstalled & refunded.

Like software for PCs is 100s of $s. Well worth the $! The save as a photo option is great for exporting and printing too!
