## Review summary

Tarot Sampler is highly praised for its extensive variety of tarot decks, multiple spread options, and privacy-conscious design with no ads. Users appreciate features like journaling and detailed card explanations that support learning. However, some report functional issues like inability to shuffle cards, a blank card of the day widget, and compatibility warnings on newer Android devices. Additionally, inconsistencies exist between card images and descriptions, and combining cards from different decks in spreads can reduce visual coherence. Overall, it's a favored app for both beginners and experienced tarot readers.
