Prefer to talk one-on-one with an expert astrologer? This app is tailored to those who have specific questions that some general horoscopes may not be able to answer.
You also get full access to your chart, with guides to help you interpret the meaning behind it. There's also a daily horoscope, tarot card reading, and access to a monthly horoscope for free.

Nebula gives you a daily reading with different sections, such as key astrology events, a lunar calendar, and even a haircut calendar (to decide the best times to get a haircut). You can also read weekly and yearly horoscopes for free.
Nebula also has a section where you can choose from multiple different personalized readings with real astrologers. However, this service, as well as the app's Premium version ($29.99), can be pricey.
But if you're just looking for a good daily reading and rundown without getting too complicated, this app works perfectly.

Co-Star is an extremely popular astrology app with a sleek, minimalistic design. It's not just pretty to look at, though. It also provides a full analysis of your natal chart if you know your birth date and time.
It's also somewhat of a social platform, as you can add friends and see how your charts match up. The app is designed so you can get tidbits of analysis with a quick read-through, or go more in-depth if you prefer.
Co-Star is free to download and use but offers several in-app purchases, including a $4.99 advanced relationships chart.

The Pattern focuses primarily on bonds and connections between people you know. You can add others by inviting them or searching for their username, or you can create a custom profile with someone's birth date and time. You can then view compatibility in both friendships and romantic relationships. This app gives deep analysis that even celebrity Channing Tatum admitted is scarily accurate.
This app is great for compatibility readings and also gives you a look into how you operate in life, work, and family matters. It provides overarching behavior cycles you may be experiencing, as well as worldwide predictions.
You can also save something you've read and jot down notes.
The Pattern is free to download and use. However, you'll need to pay for a quarterly ($19.99) or annual subscription or pay various other fees for deeper information.

DailyHoroscope is best for those who want a quick daily horoscope reading without any frills. It's good for beginners who may only know their sun zodiac sign, the one correlated to your birth.
The app also has weekly, monthly, and annual readings if you ever feel the need for more overarching predictions. It's also very easy to navigate, and you can "favorite" specific horoscopes to save them.
DailyHoroscope is free to download and use. A $3.99 Insider level and $9.99 Initiated and Zealot tiers add more features and allow an ad-free experience.

If you're looking for an app geared more toward predicting your future, Faladdin provides multiple options, including tarot card readings, clairvoyance, and coffee cup readings. It also gives a daily horoscope.
For the fortune-telling services, you'll either have to watch an ad to get the service free or pay for multiple credits. If you only want predictions once in a while, this is a nice app to have on hand. If you're more invested, you can pay for a weekly ($8.99), monthly ($24.99), or annual ($119.99) subscription.
All the readings you receive are also saved, so you can go back to them whenever you want.

If you're more interested in the actual workings of astrology and planetary movements, this is the app for you. Time Passages gives specific descriptions of planet positions and the impact they'll have on you.
There's also a section in the app named Learn where you can read about astrological terms and get an understanding of how horoscopes are calculated. If you're interested in having this kind of knowledge, this app is a great resource.
Time Passages has a free version with horoscopes, predictions, and more; you'll pay 99 cents for chart creation. There's also a $29.99 Pro version with unlimited birth charts, a Compatibility Meter, additional planetary position interpretations, and more.

If you're an advanced astrologer in need of something more technical, you'll find Time Nomad to be a league above the other apps listed here. It doesn't provide much interpretation of the planetary positions and movements but gives an extremely wide range of data to draw your own conclusions.
It also gives you the ability to add multiple people, places, companies, or world events that you can then read the correlated astrological information for. This app is free to download and use, but it's not for those who want a straightforwardly interpreted horoscope. There are paid add-ons, including a Chart Event Explorer, Current Chart Widget, Synastry Chart, and more.
