## Description

Simple Moon Phase Calendar is an enhanced and lightweight moon phase tracking application, evolving from the previous Simple Moon Phase Widget. It offers a customizable and upgraded calendar showing various lunar details such as moon age, distance, illumination percentage, moonset/moonrise times, Moon sign, and Mercury retrograde.

The app features a resizable widget that notifies you of key lunar events like full and new moons and quarter phases directly in the status bar or widget without needing to place the widget on your home screen. Users can tap calendar dates for detailed lunar imagery and enjoy memo functions. A paid option allows moon color customization, making this a versatile tool for astrology enthusiasts and anyone interested in tracking lunar cycles.
