Easy Astro+ app review: learn to read the charts 2021

Introduction

While there are plenty of options for an astrological chart app dedicated to providing you with a horoscope reading, how about learning to do your own readings?

The best horoscope apps for iPad

The Easy Astro+ app for your iPad, iPod touch, and iPhone is the best astrology app meant for amateurs and pros so that you can read your own charts.

The app boasts "fast and precise calculations" and is meant to feel like a game of astro dice. The big downfall is that even though the reference app is free, very little of the content is offered in this free version, which can hinder some users' views on this being the best astrology app for iPhone 

Nevertheless, let's dig deeper to see if this is the best horoscope app for your astrology needs. 

An App that Falls Short

For me the Easy Astro+ app falls extremely short I think because the free version is just a snippet of what you can actually get through the app. The app features Transit, Natal, and Synastry however the only feature you'll get in this version is the Natal part.

Anything else that you'd like to use will require an in-app purchase of $9.99 or you can purchase the individual sections for $4.99 each. It’s the type of app that feels a bit like false advertising because there isn’t a whole lot you can do with it, in the free version at least.

The app does manage to score a fairly decent three out of five stars from users and as you read through the comments you'll find they are pretty mixed.

You will find some users raving about how easy and fun it is to use and others who feel that even with the full function in-app purchase the app lacks in content and is extremely disappointing. The app was also suffering from some stability issues, which seems to have been corrected in its latest update.

The User Experience

When you launch the entertainment app I find it anything but “Easy Astro+” as I look at it. Clearly I am out of my element and not at all familiar with reading astrological charts. For people who have an interest in it or some basic knowledge this main screen probably isn’t intimidating at all.

Best iphone and ipad apps

I will say that navigating through the app is simple enough; you just use the bar along the bottom of the screen. It’s a shame that it is ad-supported because I find this adds more clutter to an already busy screen.

I think that the Easy Astro+ app is really meant for those who have at the very least some basic knowledge rather than amateurs and it feels really incomplete without the upgrade.

Pros and Cons

Pros

• The app is easy to navigate
• If you have at least basic knowledge of the content you should feel more comfortable with the app
• Provides users with fast calculations

Cons

• The screen is incredibly busy-looking and the ad banner makes it worse
• You get very limited content in the free version
• This feels too advanced for amateurs

Final Thoughts

The Easy Astro+ app for your iPod touch, iPad, and iPhone doesn’t strike me as ideal for amateurs, nor is the user interface especially simple to read.
