You know, there’s something pretty magical about living in the modern world.

If you’re like me, you want your craft to fit seamlessly into daily life. Whether you’re planning a full ritual under the full moon, pulling a quick tarot card on your lunch break, or simply keeping track of herbs you find on a hike, there’s an app for that.
This isn’t about replacing tradition, but making it easier to practice your craft your way.
From tracking moon phases to journaling your spells, learning tarot, or finding the perfect herb for a charm—here are 21 magical apps every modern witch needs on their phone.

If there’s one thing every witch needs, it’s a solid moon phase tracker.
Moon Phase Calendar Plus is one of those apps you’ll check daily without even thinking.
It gives you the exact phase, illumination, rise, and set times—everything you need to plan your spells or rituals with the lunar cycle.
I love it because it’s super clear and no-fuss. Want to see when the next full moon is? It’s right there. Planning a new moon intention ritual? This app will make sure you never miss it.
Honestly, if you work with lunar energy even a little bit, this one is kind of essential.

This is hands-down one of my favorite tarot apps.
Labyrinthos isn’t just for readings—it’s like a whole tarot school in your pocket. You can pull daily cards, do full spreads, and even learn meanings with beautiful visuals. It feels witchy and modern all at once.
If you’re learning tarot or just want an easy way to do readings on the go, Labyrinthos is a must-have.
It’s intuitive, well-designed, and honestly just really pretty to use.
3. Co–Star
Co–Star is the astrology app everyone loves to love (or roast, depending on the day).
It’s known for those eerily specific daily updates and sharp writing style. Add your birth info, and it gives you a full natal chart plus personalized daily insights.
It’s perfect if you want astrology that’s detailed but easy to understand. I love using it to get a daily cosmic check-in—kind of like your personal astrologer who isn’t afraid to call you out.
4. The Pattern
If you’re into astrology but want something a bit more psychological and deep, The Pattern is amazing.
It doesn’t just tell you your sun sign—it unpacks your patterns, cycles, and even your relationship dynamics.
A lot of witches use it for shadow work and personal growth because it really makes you think about why you do what you do. It’s like having a cosmic therapist who actually texts you.
5. TimePassages
Want pro-level astrology on your phone? TimePassages is the real deal.
This app gives you in-depth birth charts, transits, progressions—you name it. It’s perfect if you’re studying astrology seriously or just want to understand your chart beyond the basics.
It might look a little old-school, but it’s incredibly detailed.
If you’ve ever wanted to learn what all those houses, aspects, and retrogrades actually mean, TimePassages is where it’s at.
6. Magic Moon
This is one of those apps built just for witches. Magic Moon is like your all-in-one toolkit: moon phase calendar, spells, rituals, affirmations, and more.
It’s designed specifically to help you plan and track your practice with the lunar cycle.
It’s great if you want a single app that has both timing and ideas for your workings. Honestly, it’s kind of like carrying around a tiny, practical Book of Shadows on your phone.
7. Wicca Plus
If you’re into Wicca or want an all-in-one app for spells, rituals, and moon phases, Wicca Plus is perfect. It’s kind of like a pocket reference for your entire practice.
You’ll find correspondences, Sabbats, deities, and even a spellbook section.
It’s super handy if you want to plan rituals on the go or just need a quick reminder of ingredients or timing. It feels like having a little elder witch mentor quietly tucked in your phone.

Sometimes you just want a fast, easy reference—and Witchcraft – Spells & Meanings delivers.
It’s basically a giant searchable database of spells, symbols, and magical correspondences.
If you’re writing your own spells or prepping a ritual, it’s great for brainstorming. I love pulling it up when I’m like, “Wait, what herb is best for protection again?” It’s simple, but honestly, so useful.
9. PlantNet
For all the green witches and herbalists out there, PlantNet is a total game-changer. Snap a photo of any plant and it’ll help you identify it right away.
It’s amazing for foraging safely or just learning what grows in your area. Whether you’re collecting herbs for spellwork or just deepening your connection to nature, this is one of those apps you’ll end up using way more than you expect.
