The Pattern

i honestly don’t hate the updates, not the best for sure but it is more aesthetic and after messing with it a bit, not horrible to navigate. my biggest problem is “sharing” with someone else. there was an option to share outside of the app which pulled up like a little note card snippet. now it just directs you to download the app. so then i end up screenshotting a bunch of stuff and it’s just super annoying. i would love that feature to come back.

Im beyond sad and disappointed with what you have done with my once favorite app, everything is behind a paywall even the most trivial of information!! In the past it was available and user friendly, now its just a money machine!! For your information not everyone in the world can subscribe to your monthly/ yearly or whatever subscriptions. At first you closed the bonds relationship (deeper) information and I get it, I was sad but ultimately I figured you have the rights as long as everything else is available, then you started hiding everything else behind a paywall, even the transits and full moons aren’t available for free now! Tell me, as an average consumer who lives from pay check to pay check why should I continue using your app? Because YOU made it impossible to enjoy and use. Im beyond heartbroken, Ive been using it since it first came out and couldn’t believe that such a gem of information was available to us. With a heavy heart I am uninstalling it. It was worth my time but now it isn’t.

Used to love this app, but I’m no longer a fan. The new UI is horrible and the user experience is not intuitive at all. Way too much content that’s not organized appropriately. Oh and of course you can barely use any features anymore without being forced to pay. Very disappointed.

The pattern was so cool when it first came out. The app was easy to navigate and offered a lot of seemingly accurate insight. But with each update, it gets more and more complicated to use. Sadly, I think it’s time to delete.

The new interface makes it so difficult to find anything. It looks so bland now. Scrolling to see random updates feels like such a lazy design choice. I can’t easily see my transits, and even worse no more connecting with others in the threads. The interface is clearly focusing on cash grabs. This app is ruined. Very disappointing since I heavily enjoyed the previous versions. Basically costar 2.0 without the passive aggressiveness. I’d rate zero stars if I could.

I have to agree with the many other users on this review thread. The app used to be incredible, but now it has become increasingly confusing to navigate, and the amount of content that used to be free but is now locked behind a paywall is certainly frustrating, too. No other app I’ve ever seen grants such valuable insight, but all of the “meat & potatoes” that I’d like to get into is tied to a very expensive subscription (too expensive for what it actually IS, in my opinion,) and I find myself pretty much never checking the app anymore. Seems like someone at the top has overextended and seeks to disparage the poor in favor of squeezing a silly amount of money out of the few who are foolish enough to pay a monthly subscription for the more substantial content. A five star app driven down to three by myopic changes to the business model. Perhaps the devs are more financially successful than ever! But the great many users are more disappointed than ever, it feels.

super accurate but yall are extremely greedy now for some reason..

This app is witchy.

I genuinely love this app but there’s somethings that aggravates me bc I love it so much: If I’m paying my money there’s jus some basics I feel entitled to like the transits of the week. I’m aware that my lens feed is based on them yet I have to go out of app to see which ones are present and figure out why each post is relevant. A lot of work when I paid to not do that. Also this new “body” would be more innovative if it didn’t lose features. Where are the journal, save, and heart options? That was a majority of why I loved the app bc I could use those to reflect. If they’re gone I truly hope my old journals and saves are not. If they’re not gone then this is even more unfortunate of a concern that the site is now more difficult to navigate. Lastly, for now, the previews in my lens cut off but no where in the read more does it show or lead to rest of the insert. Once again if I’m to pay a mandatory minimum 3-months fee at the very least I would like a more in depth transit description, in full. I can go to my bonds and my vault if I want a refresher on the aspects of my bonds and my own. It’s kind of seems redundant to read those when I could be getting an in depth understanding of the effects of the transit. That’s like being told the basic weather of today but then an in-depth explanation of the weather on the day I was born. I also have the same issue with the vertexes and the lack in differentiation between the effects of a vertex and antivertex but I give that some grace bc it is so new but it’s almost useless if it’s gonna give the same basic read to them all when some are more powerful, dynamic, and fated than others. Like I said I love the premise of the app but the stunted navigation and these pockets of superficial information stunts my ability to fully appreciate it.

I love the information this app provides, but I cannot get used to the new layout. The UI is not intuitive, the lack of a search function makes it difficult to find anything specific, and it’s disappointing that scrolling and hoping is the only way to find the information you need. There should be an easy to find app map and explanation. It’s extremely disheartening having loved this app for years and now barely being able to use it because of this new layout.
