Co–Star Personalized Astrology

Love the app but it has my age and knows I’m fourteen, it’s telling me I need to drink wine and have sex, I find this very strange and disturbing

I found this app to be good in some respects, but there have been several astrology forecasts that felt strange, awkward, or unnecessarily dark. This has happened multiple times, and I find it genuinely disturbing. The example that ultimately led me to uninstall the app was the daily reading. The headline was, “You Are Ready to Explode,” and it went on to suggest that I would be pushed beyond my limits, become frustrated, and potentially lose my composure. I found that to be emotionally insensitive and unnecessarily negative. What made this even more concerning is that the forecast did not match my mood or my sentiments at all. It felt completely disconnected from how I was actually feeling, which made the messaging seem even more inappropriate and reinforced my decision to remove the app. My concern is not that astrology offers cautionary guidance. My concern is the way it is presented. When someone is already struggling, messaging like this can reinforce negative emotions rather than encourage resilience or constructive action. In my opinion, the tone could unintentionally contribute to unhealthy thinking patterns instead of helping people navigate difficult moments. Most of the readings did provide interesting insights, and I can see why some people enjoy the app. However, these darker forecasts appeared often enough that they made me increasingly uncomfortable. Combined with the app’s overall aesthetic, something about the approach simply does not sit right with me. I have had the app on my phone for quite a while and did not make this decision lightly. I am actually surprised more people have not mentioned this because the negativity is subtle, but it is there. For that reason, I would not recommend this app, and I have decided to remove it.
