TarotBot Android Tarot Reader
TarotBot is an open source framework for tarot readings on Android devices with switchable card decks and interpretations.
The interface, which re-presents tarot, was designed with the primary goal to only draw from the physical artifacts (the deck of cards) those attributes which are meaningful to the reading: imagery, interpretations, and context. The traditional shuffling, dealing, and arranging of the cards is removed from the process allowing a much more streamlined reading experience to emerge. The experience may lack some traditional elements but conducting readings for one’s self, especially on the go, is far from traditional.
While other tarot apps seek to replicate the experience of tarot cards TarotBot aims to evolve tarot into a new medium.
When tarot is most effective is when one uses intuition to interpret the cards, however interpretations are provided to help anyone unfamiliar with tarot. These are a synthesis of experience and research conducted during development.
Primary research sources include:
The Oracle of the Tarot by Paul Foster Case
Tarot Plain and Simple by Anthony Louis
Learning the Tarot by Joan Bunning
Sex Magic, Tantra, and Tarot by Christopher Hyatt
The deck included with the free versions is a vintage 1909 deck with artwork by Pamela Coleman Smith

|
[2013-01-10] A Google User: Simple and elegant TarotBot has exactly what I need in a tarot app - high quality card scans that look great on my 7-in. screen, and the ability to input my own notes for card meanings. I picked up the Marseilles and other historic decks, too. Absolutely gorgeous! Thanks so much for these wonderful apps. |
|
[2012-11-15] A Google User: Love it |
|
[2012-11-12] A Google User: Samsung Its entertaining |
|
[2012-08-23] A Google User: A really great app! It works like a charm :-) |
|
[2012-07-18] A Google User: Top app Great app brilliant layout easy to use and understand |
|
[2012-06-23] A Google User: Love I love this app, it took some time for me to figure out how to upload my own deck, but now that I got that sorted out this is truely all I could want in a tarot app. |
|
[2012-05-22] A Google User: Great app but not for beginners This app doesn't give you the tarot card experience like "galaxy tarot" app and others. Instead it forces you to make your own connections based on your familiarity with the cards. In this way, the reading will be more intuative than verbatim to some preexisting accosiation of what each card means. You can easily add more descriptions for each card if you wish. I love the custom deck upload feature! |
|
[2012-05-07] A Google User: Tarot This is a very efficient app. I love it! |
|
[2012-04-30] A Google User: I now understand Couldn't get why jan said it was bad app. Then I downloaded it lol. Horrable. Doesn't even really give you a reading. Just a random card at a time. LAME |
|
[2012-04-25] A Google User: <3 I love this app. :] |
|
[2012-04-08] A Google User: Configurable, seamless Works well on HTC Incredible2 - icons as navigation on top left work well without being overly intrusive. |
|
[2012-02-18] A Google User: An attractive app whose quality continually improves. Giving you room for comments on card descriptions is wonderful. |
|
[2012-01-30] A Google User: Worst App Ever I wouldn't even have given it a star had given a choice. It made no sense whatsoever. If you are NOT knowledgeable in tarot, don't download! |
|
[2012-01-25] A Google User: Useless Does not give ANY info on the cards. Just shows the card. Constantly freezing. Having to force it to close. Not good enough. Uninstalling. |
|
[2012-01-21] A Google User: It kept crashing for forced close. Looks like fun though. Uninstall now. |
|
[2012-01-18] A Google User: Its always so true...pretty scary.lol |
|
[2011-12-24] A Google User: Love it! Great ap |
|
[2011-12-16] A Google User: Great like it a lot |
|
[2011-12-12] A Google User: Um... not worth your time |
|
[2011-12-06] A Google User: So good The readings are dead on |
|
[2011-12-01] A Google User: A New Approach Interesting, free and different. Not hokey like some new age stuff. Aesthetics match the price, but worth checking out. |
|
[2011-11-30] A Google User: It has been very interesting I've had a lot of fun reading the tarots for the last few weeks, they get pretty accurate too ;D |
|
[2011-11-05] A Google User: 93 i love it... |
|
[2011-10-29] A Google User: HeyZap is fine and dandy I'm sure, but I don't want it, and I CERTAINLY don't want notification bar ads for it every time I use tarotbot. Uninstalled. |
|
[2011-10-26] A Google User: Adds The adds in this get on my nerves. As I'm writing this I see there is an add free version for £5.23 WOW...WOW That's the most expensive app I have ever seen! The app didn't say that some pikey developer would try and steal from me...therefore it don't work and is not worth over 5 POUNDS. |
|
[2011-10-21] A Google User: Tarotbot Fantastic app..right most days |
|
[2011-10-16] A Google User: Don't waste your time downloading this. People who rated this 5 stars don't understand the meaning of quality. |
|
[2011-10-14] A Google User: Terrific! |
|
[2011-09-30] A Google User: Great app!! |
|
[2011-09-25] A Google User: Love love love it! Have never had any problems with this app :) |

|
[2011-08-26] A Google User: Best free tarot app out there |
|
[2011-08-24] A Google User: Excellent. Love it. Well made. Use it everyday. |
|
[2011-08-19] A Google User: I want to help with crashes and errors But I cannot help unless you email me, every device works differently and I cannot test on all of them. If you have a problem email the developer! |
|
[2011-08-14] A Google User: Perfect Perfect app. With the most recent update, I couldn't ask for more! |
|
[2011-08-12] A Google User: Best of its kind. Better if can switch between multiple decks. |
|
[2011-08-11] A Google User: Unimpressed No explanation of the spreads and card definitions were only semi-accurate (even had one contradicting itself). Overall, I'll stick to my cards. |
|
[2011-08-11] A Google User: Loved this app until latest update I use the 1x1 widget displaying a card of the day on my homescreen. Now their logo is superimposed over the card image. Reverted to old version. |
|
[2011-08-05] A Google User: Nice n helpful |
|
[2011-07-26] A Google User: Decent app. Good descriptions of cards. Two downfalls: you cant save a reading, even though they claim you can. If hit back button, lose reading. Boo. |
|
[2011-07-14] A Google User: Great app. Update was perfect |
|
[2011-07-12] A Google User: Pretty cool! It would be interesting if users could edit their own divinatory meanings to personalize the app. |
|
[2011-07-09] A Google User: It was ok good reading just.won't save and kept closing randomly. |
|
[2011-07-03] A Google User: Works well, pretty intuitive and a nice clean look. |
|
[2011-06-24] A Google User: Dont install on sdcard if you want to use the widgets - which are great - install on phone instead |
|
[2011-06-23] A Google User: Love this app, soooo much fun!! |
|
[2011-06-11] A Google User: Your app scares me |
|
[2011-06-11] A Google User: Its ok |
|
[2011-05-29] A Google User: Not intuitive for my Motorola cliq. I choose a reading, then cannot seem to open each card. Uninstalled. |
|
[2011-05-14] A Google User: Very accurate with what I've been facing. |
|
[2011-05-14] Daina: Very accurate with what I've been facing. |
|
[2011-05-09] A Google User: Only suggestion I have would be to take readings from the magnetometer that is in nearly ALL new smartphones & Use for a personal reading measurement. |

[2011-04-21] nichelle: I must agree with pixie...everyday im making sure i check my readings and not once have they been wrong....always on point....and from a phone. AWSOME |
|
[2011-04-03] A Google User: I love this app so far every card I have drawn has been dead on .I was surprised since I actually read tarot. I never thought a phone could be good. |

[2011-02-11] A Google User: Why does this app need full internet? For being streamlined, it needs too many services |
|
[2011-02-11] Mack: Why does this app need full internet? For being streamlined, it needs too many services |
|
[2011-02-11] liber: the internet acess provides sharing of readings and access to high resolution images on high end device There is a privacy policy on our website |
|
[2011-02-08] Justin: Kinda... plain. Description says app is suppose to transform the practice into something more, but it lacks everything a real reading is. No soul... |
|
[2011-02-05] A Google User: Won't even open on my hero uninstall |
|
[2011-02-05] A Google User: Poorly designed. No explanations for spreads (or cards, if you need that sort of thing). Galaxy Tarot far superior. |

|
[2011-02-01] A Google User: I didn't enjoy this one as much and I didn't understand the bota spread and there wasnt any explanations of the spreads...although I understand most |
