Latest reviews of AstroTibet '12 app for iPhone and iPad

Very handy
I had the printed version of this calendar for 11, which was great but having this information at hand from a trusted source will be great.
Just superstition
Im sure this app would be great for someone thats been deeply schooled in the ways of Tibet, but even then, all it does is tell you when you should or shouldnt cut your hair, get married, etc. It doesnt explain the "why" to each should or shouldnt. The art is tiny; you cant see the detail at all. This seems like the darker side of Buddhism with the unexplained superstitions and warnings to make you paranoid about each day ahead.
Wonderful!
This is my second year using this application. It is easy to use and really helpful (especially if you are a Buddhist). It is also beautiful and I think it would be enjoyable for anyone to have on their phone or device.
Normally I buy the calendar --
Wonderful to be able to have it in app form. Makes is more accessible. Its also another way to support the LPP and hopefully encourage/ support FPMT to create apps.
