The Moon: Calendar Moon Phases Reviews

I absolutely love TheMoon, so much that I put it in place of my calendar app. It tells me everything I need to know about the moon’s current and upcoming phases, what constellation it’s in, even down to the nitty gritty of its exact location in the sky in real time.

The ONLY thing that would make TheMoon better, is if the icon was dynamic, like the Calendar app’s icon. The only thing I miss about the calendar app is that I can look at it from a glance and know what the date is. TheMoon still tells me the date if I open up the calendar within it, but I do miss the convenience of being able to look at my home screen and see on the icon what the date is. I think having the icon reflect the current date and moon phase would make TheMoon so much better. I don’t know if that’s possible for non-official apps, but I can dream.

Overall, I highly recommend.

I love TheMoon. I usually don’t write reviews for these things, but this is a great way to keep up with the moon phases and times.
I love how this is a simple and functional app— one to zero bugs have popped up in the long time I’ve had it. I have tried other moon trackers but this is the one I’ll stick with. It shows the phases, zodiac signs, and more which is very useful. It even has a note tool that keeps up with when you typed it and what phase the moon was in at that time. I haven’t had any problems with TheMoon, and the Calendar feature isn’t of my greatest desires to buy. I love TheMoon so, so much and you should definitely consider getting it.

Before TheMoon, I had a terrible time keeping track of the moon cycle. I never was the best at science or astronomy. I did my best to learn and I ended up downloading TheMoon to help to process. The moon is an essential part of life for everyone but especially for me. If I can’t tell what night the full moon will be on it will be trouble for all around me. A transformation is a draining process and all I can think about after is FOOD. Doesn’t matter what or who it was. Not many people take into consideration my condition. Turning in to a beast isn’t fun and games, people. I thank you for TheMoon, on behalf of myself and the Were-community.

I always watch the moon phases. Years ago I worked for the Austin State School in Austin Texas. The gentlemen I worked with were non verbal, and non ambulatory with many types of seizure disorders. Whenever the moon was full we had many more seizures to attend too. It only makes sense to me that if the moon is powerful enough to move such massive bodies of water, why then would it not be possible to move our puny little bodies that are made up of 91% water? Or at least have some effects on our brain? People tend to be short of temper and just a little psycho around full moons. Observe for yourself! We did!

I love tracking the phases of the moon, because I’m one of those nuts who believes the nuts do come out when the moon is full. I used to have another app before this one but the developer is gone and TheMoon doesn’t anymore update. It was called Moonphase, and you could set it to howl to remind you of the impending full moon. I thought that was fun and quirky, I wish TheMoon had that because I truly miss it so. It was just a fun thing to have and joke around and show people. Maybe if you find the developer and work something out and add it to this? Otherwise it is an excellent app!

App offers very little information without in-app purchases. Information made available for free is easily google-able very quickly, so app doesn’t really offer any convenience. Bummer! Especially considering TheMoon already has ads and that the moon calendar does not fluctuate or need constant maintenance.

TheMoon is more convenient at the start of the month, as it will give you the current calendar month for free, but if you check in on the 29th, you only get 2-3 days information until the next month arrives. App would be much better if it offered 15 days prior current date and 15 days after current date. Then the free version would be much more logical!

A couple of novices to our coven bring a tremendous enthusiasm and love for our Moon Goddess. TheMoon is exceptional. The knowledge and arrangements of information of the Moon is a blessing for us. We use TheMoon as an alternative learning tool. I do miss the brother wolf howl during the full moon. Also miss the different names of the moons whether according to Indigenous cultures, Celtic, or Norse. Adds a bit of heritage.
I really enjoy learning about the Moon, it’s affects on the ebb and flow of natural living here on Mother Earth. Thank you to the creators of TheMoon. Number #1. Merry meet and merry part, blessings always come from our hearts. )O(

Great app overall. I use it all the time to plan my astroimaging sessions. It would be great though if you could come up with a different way to mark the current day and label new and full moon other than red. The red bar under the current day and the red lettering is extremely difficult to see. You need something much brighter and more visible. Maybe highlight the whole day with a shaded brighter color and come up with a brighter marking for new and full moon. Other than that it's great

I’m not sure I can tell you why...maybe it’s because it’s easy to use, but I downloaded 3 different moon apps a couple of years ago, and this is the one I used consistently. I love to photograph the moon, so I keep up with rise and set times, and I label my photos as to percent waxing or waning. Basic stuff. All three have that info. This one is easy to see, direct, love it. I had this on my phone and the others on my iPad. I’m now putting this on iPad and giving up the others.

It’s a simple, great app. I love it. But there are so many parts blocked off unless you pay to unlock and it’s really ridiculous. There is no reason TheMoon isn’t all around free, you shouldn’t have to pay for those features. And it’s super easy to accidentally tap to purchase which isn’t cool. Other than that I love it though and use only the free stuff and it is enough. No crazy adds that take away from the experience which is nice. If an app comes along with free in house moon charts I will drop this for that in an instant though.

I always make a first date on a new moon- the relationship has a much better shot! This AP has helped my romantic life! I delayed the beginning of my current job and I am still here 2 years later- starting a new job when the moon is waxing is important and this AP makes it easy! Also if someone owes you money ask for it when the moon is waning- people will let go of things more easily when the moon is getting smaller.

Thanks to Apple’s privacy features I get a banner notification telling me that TheMoon has pasted information from my clipboard. Why does TheMoon need the last thing I copied to my clipboard? What if that was a password, or some other piece of critical data. Thank you, Apple, for your privacy checking functionality. I’m deleting TheMoon, and I recommend everyone stay away from it.

You can also see the developer has not provided Apple with any information regarding privacy. That may be a good rule of thumb when checking out an app, does the developer provide privacy data to Apple? If not, do not install, move along.

I found TheMoon and have been really happy with it. I rent an apartment, so my green thumb isn’t the best, I notice they have useful information for those who garden too. It works for me in that I plan much of my work flow and intentions around the moon. Now I’m going to take it a step further and learn about the signs the moon is in. TheMoon tells you all of that too (which zodiac sign the moon is in at any given time). You can see into future dates too which is also very helpful.

Free trial for the upgrade didn’t work, so I paid for the upgrade and it still doesn’t work. To explain: If you want to see more than just the month you’re in, you have to pay to upgrade. You’re supposed to get a week free trial, but it never worked, gets stuck in a loop where I try to go to the next month, then get a message to unlock the calendar, click on that and get a subscription prompt and when I click on that it says already subscribed. So I let it charge for the upgrade thinking the “free trial” was a joke and the upgrade would work, but nope, get the same thing. Tells me I need to subscribe, then tells me I’m already subscribed. Not impressed.

Once I learned as a young feller how much the gravitational pull has an affect on planet earth and realized that we are made up of so much water then I started to parallel the two an helps me understand my moods my attitudes which affects my mood an said no and where we are in the moon phase helped me understand with what’s going on in my real life thank you for the moon charts as the moon speaks to the waves of the sea so does it speak to you and me 🙏❤️🥋🥋🦅🐕🇺🇸👌✌️out !

Hands down my favorite app in my entire phone!! I love taking pictures of the moon with my camera and TheMoon helps let me know anything and everything I need to know about the moon that day. It even tells you what astrology sign the moon. My favorite feature (the one I probably use the most) is what time the moon will rise and set that day. Definitely would recommend TheMoon to anyone who is a moon lover like myself! Stay wild moon child 🌝

Every feature about TheMoon is excellent, especially for .99 cents, it’s great

But I would love for y’all to add notifications options for the moon phases like for me I would love the have it notify me if it’s a new moon, or full moon the day of. I know it’s simple to just look into the sky but it would be nice to have a little reminder for my practices :) thank you

And I use it daily. The only improvement I would make is to update the crystal/stone names (I keep having to Google them because I've never heard of a particular stone, then it turns out it's the archaic name for a more common stone), and do a bit of copy editing to make the "Characteristics" and other recommendations sections more understandable. They feel like a bad translation sometimes and don't always flow or make sense. With these upgrades, TheMoon would be very popular in the new age/witch/woo-woo world.

I really do enjoy TheMoon very much I love astronomy very much and this is a very useful app for it. But really can Apple can you stop making your apps ask me to give stars and write a review it’s annoying I feel like I’m being asked by one of my little cousins to look at their drawing that I like but they won’t stop asking me about how much I like their drawing.

I love how TheMoon shows where the moon will rise and set the sunrise and sunset locations the actual phases of the moon it is beautifully done and if I wasn’t so cheap I would pay for everything else because I am sure it is that much better but the devs were gracious enough to give you great things for the price of free so ty and I hope everyone can enjoy TheMoon as much as I do

I like to plan my camping trips around the night sky. Sometimes I want to photograph the stars & planets ( astrophotography), so I need to know when the moon sets early or when it’s a new moon. Sometimes I want to photograph the landscape under a full moon. TheMoon helps me plan my camping for the optimal conditions ( weather excluded)!!

And sometimes I just want to camp. Then I check on TheMoon to see what I can expect and prepare for those moony nights!

TheMoon works perfect and it easy to use. It has many different calendars you can check out too such as the whole moon month and even a compass of where the moon will be. You can also swipe right or left to see the days before or after. Clicking on the moon allows you to see all the moon data. Love it. It looks beautiful and helps me get in touch with our gorgeous moon!

No matter where you call home, you can check out lots of lunar information with TheMoon. I live without a great view of the night sky... and it is not light pollution up here in northern New York State...its called cloud cover. Not to worry. I open TheMoon and loads of data is at my fingertips. The only missing piece is it doesn’t come with the soundtrack of “Dark Side of the Moon” by Pink Floyd.

Anyone else notice the constellations are off (possibly by a calendar month)? Ex: the pattern of constellations correlating with the full moon is correct just a month behind. Where Sept. 2018’s full moon should fall in Aries, TheMoon shows it in Pisces. Oct. 2018 is showing Pisces when it should be Taurus. Nov. 2018 is showing Taurus when it should be Gemini. Am I missing something? Is there a setting I need to adjust? Are there any other minor discrepancies that others have found that might affect the apps accuracy?

I love the idea of TheMoon . But if it’s inaccurate it makes it ineffective.

I truly believe that the moon does affect our mood.
If I notice that I am being especially irritable and impatient with others, my driving is aggressive, and others are having the same issue, it typically corresponds with either a new moon or a full moon. Check it out next time YOU have these symptoms.
You may become a believer as well...

1) this is an actual sentence from TheMoon : “activate maximum of you awareness”. Seriously. The whole text about any given day is gibberish that sounds like a bad google translate... and it probably is?

2) to use the “calendar function” shown in the preview for TheMoon (the whole reason I downloaded it) you have to make an in-app purchase. I would have been fine with paying $2 for TheMoon - but to give it as a nearly non-functional free download and force in app purchases to make it function fully is shady.

Deleting.

This application is the best for keeping track of what our moon is doing. Tried couple of other apps & they completely failed. Can't think of anything being wrong with TheMoon love it I do you use it on average four times a week keep up the good work guys at least you keep the current which so many apps don't!
