Hours is an app for calculating planetary hours according to the traditional astrological rules. The app will calculate planetary hours for:
1) Your current location, defined by GPS.
2) Any of over 42,000 of predefined locations around the world from the database shipped with the app.
3) Any custom location you might want to define, specifying its latitude and longitude.
You can select any date from January 1st, 1900.
Hours also displays an extensive list of attributes for each planet.
In addition, planetary strengths are calculated. Their importance was emphasized by the 17th century herbalists, as well as by contemporary practitioners.
In the latest version, a possibility to generate a notification when a particular hour starts was added.

Hours App Comments & Reviews
Hours Positive Reviews
MehOther than the obvious which is that the whole hour system is at times confusing and with the added update of strength that just throws another factor into it. What I do love about it is whenever I’m bored I go on this app to check out what hour it’s in. Love love love being able to do that and correlate certain things with that. The downside- random crashes. Sometimes I take it as a “sign” other times it’s annoying. 3/5.Version: 3.2
My Go To app for planetary hours info -Excellent!!This app has been my daily go to for information about the planetary hours for the past year or so. It gives the strength of the planet at the hour of the day and also plenty of information, beginning with Key Ideas, at your fingertips when you tap on the hour. You can scroll ahead or look back and check the hours in your location with the calendar feature or any other location you want with the custom time and location zones available on the bottom of the screen. I use this app everyday and it’s been so helpful and valuable to me. This is a one of a kind app, I have never had any problems with it, it’s my favorite place to get info on the planetary hours. A “must have “ if you are looking for this kind of information. I have an IPhone 7..Version: 3.2
Nothing not to love ❤️ about appIt’s very useful, very clear information on planetary hours with an awesome incredibly hard to find bonus of planet strength. Could it be more fancy? Sure. But does it need to? Not at all. THANK YOU FOR MAKING THE APP (if you ever want to add Lilly’s rules for strength and debility somewhere in the app, we would love to have them handy). And the app could use notifications. BUT not for all hours. There are other apps that do that, Vedic apps like Cosmic Insights. For your app it would be nice to be able to choose what planetary hour you care for. So if I only choose Mars and Saturn, those notifications are the only ones we get. That would be AWESOME. Thank you Vladimir. 😎.Version: 3.2
*UPDATE*Good update, needs improvement*UPDATE BELOW* Older version: I have been using this app for sometime, but for Traditional Astrology the Planetary Day rulership starts over at sunset. So on Monday the moon rules the rising hour and the setting hour. This is a staple of all Traditional methods, perhaps an option can be added. New version: Here is an explanation of the proper calculation desired by Traditional Astrologers (via Renaissance Astrology); "get your local sunrise and sunset times from the newspaper or the US Naval Observatory. Take the time from sunrise to sunset and divide by twelve to get the length of each planetary hour for the day. Take the time from sunset to sunrise the next day and divide that by twelve for the length of each planetary hour by night. Then starting with the planet that rules the day, e.g. Saturn for Saturday, follow the Chaldean order and assign the proper planet to each planetary hour of the day and night that you have just calculated.".Version: 3.0.1
Traditional planetary hoursAn easy to use and clear app to tell you what planetary hour it currently is. All you astro-magus out there here you go! I use this daily in my practices. Also, a nice perk you can see what dignity the current planetary hour is in too. Simple, wonderful and beats figuring it out yourself for you particular time zone. I am writing this in the hour of the moon so hopefully this review comfortably informs you..Version: 3.2
Useful app for ritual timingThank you for developing this app! With the addition of planetary strength I wish there was a dignity table preference option. I’m not alone in using the Egyptian Terms and the Chaldean Decans. The Ptolemaic Terms are popular with astrologers that study William Lily but a large number of astrologers living today incorporate the Dorothean/Egyptian terms when calculating planetary dignity/debility. Maybe in a future update this could be an option Cheers!.Version: 3.2
DecentI would have given this 5 stars but the only issue is that the planetary times are a little off. For example, Mars hour ends, for example at 7:04 and then it has Mercury hour beginning at 7:04. Unless it measures seconds too, this gives misleading info. It's like that for all of this app's planetary times. It SHOULD be that Mars hour ends at 7:03 and Mercury begins at 7:04. I still have to use a planetary hours calculator I found online. I can continue to use this app. It's sharp and has very nice and helpful description of planets and their astrological meanings. I'll just have to start an activity 3-5 minutes into a desired hour to be sure the start time is correct. When it's all said and done, I like the app..Version: 3.0.1
Very functionalThis app is really handy and does exactly what it ought to do. I use it daily and I’m happy to have something on my phone that I would otherwise use on my computer. The only way this app could be improved would be to add notifications. I would LOVE to get a notification each time the planetary hour changes..Version: 3.0.1
Decent appThis app works well but the downside is the constant crashing of the app. Also, if you happen to check a time/planetary alignment in the future it will give you the wrong time. This is a good into to planetary hours but apparently you'll need a backup. If they update the app it would be a perfect score of 5 stars..Version: 3.2
Hours App has glitchesI was really exited to try this app since I am taking the course on planetary hours. However, SaI click on several different hours, and it kicks me out of the app. Maybe is something that can easily be fixed? I don’t know..Version: 3.2
Does what it says it will and a good valueSo I have the latest version and think that it is fine. I find it is worth the money so I can look at the planetary hours. I have not had issues with this app..Version: 3.0.1
Crashes when I select a table rowI can set a location, but when I tap any table row in the hours table it crashes. iPhone 11 Pro. iOS 13.2.3. No notifications either, as listed in the release notes..Version: 3.2
What happened?I have been using this app for over 3 years daily but recently it freezes. Not sure what happened. Please fix it..Version: 3.2
Magical AppIs one of the apps I use when I need to create some candles to heal, oils, to solve some themes, etc. Thank you for creating this magic app! I love it.Version: 3.2
Fascinating and useful!The quickest and easiest way for me to double check for the best times to roll out my day. I love it!.Version: 3.2
Great appI use it every day. It has never crashed on me. Tons of useful astrological information..Version: 3.2
Converting to Custom is not an OptionIt would be helpful if, after choosing a country and city, you could secure it as a custom location. This doesn't appear to allow that. It would also help if it was integrated with a world map so you could select out of the way places not in the app's list, and calculate from Long/Lat off that map..Version: 2.0.3
All better.Update fixed it, thanks so much. 🌟.Version: 3.2
Just what I neededFor magickal timing involving the traditional 7 planets, this app is perfect. Exactly what I needed..Version: 3.0.1
Very Good...This app allows you to key in your exact longitude and latitude, and gives the precise planetary hours. Only 2 minor drawbacks... It doesn't adjust for Daylight Savings Time, and it doesn't distinguish between Daytime and Nighttime hours. Wish it could do that! Even so, it beats the heck out of doing the math on paper! Since my first review in 2009, this app has improved wonderfully. It's simple and straightforward, easy to use. It opens to the current date and it highlights the current hour, specifying the precise minutes of that hour. You can set it for your current location without needing to know your exact latitude and longitude. And you can look up ANY date just by touching the date button at the top. The developer of this app was friendly, courteous & helpful, when I had diificulty because I was using an older iPhone OS..., and within a week he pinpointed the problem, created a patch, submitted it to Apple, so my app is now working beautifully. I still think it would be nice if the GUI made a colorful distinction between the daytime and nighttime hours. However, all things considered, this app STILL beats having to do the math! Thanks for that!.Version: 0
Was pretty helpfulThe only problem I really have with this app is that it does not have my specific location and I have to choose a completely different (and far away) city with the same time zone..I tried using the "Find out the current location" feature but it just gives me "unidentified location" lol Well other than that it's a pretty good app :).Version: 2.0.3
Simple and invaluable for magicPlanetary hours are extremely important to magic and notoriously difficult to calculate on the fly. Perfect app for a phone. The redesign is solid and robust, *however* I do miss the auto date and time function in this new version. Please consider reinstating that in future versions!.Version: 3.0
This is enormously helpful,We use this to quickly check under what influence we are beginning a new endeavor. This a very old practice, and can relate to angelic influence as well as planetary. This app worked well but only worked on my iPhone. It did not work at all on my iPad..Version: 0
Elegant and usefulThis app is very easy to use, and works quickly and accurately. It works just fine on older IPhone OS, and I'm very happy to have it to time the work I do. When I had questions, the developer was helpful and answered quickly..Version: 2.0.2
Practical and Straight ForwardThank you so much for the Update! Your app has saved me hours of my own tinkering with paper and spreadsheets. The additional notes you've added help clarify the influences of the moment! Again, Thank you for your efforts!.Version: 3.0
Not working.The first hour for feb 9th, a monday, is shown on the app as being ruled by the sun. This is incorrect, as being a monday it should be the moon. Likewise, the first hour of feb 10th 2015, a tuesday, is shown as being ruled by the moon, whereas it should be ruled by mars ( as it's a tuesday). A bug this bad makes it unusable. It was working fine yesteraday..Version: 2.0.3
Impressive update!I use this app all the time and am stoked with this new update. The added information about each planetary hour is extremely useful, but the app is still simple and easy. Thanks!.Version: 3.0
NiceVery interesting if your curious about astrology, does what it says and very user friendly. maybe you should update the pictures because now it is in am/pm format instead of military time. oh be sure to remember to input/ or press "current" so it knows your location!.Version: 0
Didn't adjust for leap yearI hope they update and fix this....and that did. Great app..Version: 2.0.3
No longer worksThis is/was a great app. But… it no longer works. Anyone know why?.Version: 2.0.3
Good updateVery useful, and easy to use..Version: 3.0
Its greatGreat app saves you time and effort.Version: 2.0.3
Pretty good except 1 thingVery useful as a quick reference and worth the price even for my singular complaint. My only dislike is how each day does just go from 12am-12pm. Because of this if you happen to be looking at the planetary hour at say 1:30am it is listed on the correct day but it is at the end of that day and when 5:30am or so roles around, it will flip back to the beginning of that day. Perhaps this is just a bug but it would make a lot more sense to just have it go from 12-12..Version: 2.0.3
Amazing App!The most complete app of its kind. I'm so happy I found this to check the planet's timing anywhere I am. Easy to use and each planet has its meaning as well, hour is shown, date, coordinates. I def recommend it!.Version: 2.0.3
