Moonlight’s first tarot app is here on iOS!

After weeks of beta testing with our tarot community, we're excited to announce that Moonlight is now available on iOS!
For those new to Moonlight, we're a tarot platform trusted by over 25,000 enthusiasts who love our approach to interactive tarot education and practice. We've been featured in The Guardian, Artnet, Wildhunt, and Hyperallergic for our innovative design and realistic card physics. And now you can experience this anywhere.
What makes tarot special on Moonlight?
"This is such a marvel of an app—intuitive, artistic, insightful, playful, and inviting. I loved the reading it gave me and the way I could either give it my own interpretation or dive deeper with the guidance & analysis tool. Really wonderfully done!"
— R. one of our community members
At its heart, Moonlight is designed to help you practice tarot wherever and whenever you want, while making rituals genuinely your own. We built this app around a few core ideas:
- Bring your own ritual
We're not here to tell you exactly HOW to practice tarot, but guide you in your own discovery. - Easy for beginners, layered for experienced practitioners
Whether you're just starting or you've been reading for years, you can choose your level of guidance. - Supports real artists
Every deck purchase directly supports independent creators. - Built by and for the tarot community
We're practitioners ourselves, developing features that actual tarot readers want.
Beautiful artist-made tarot and oracle decks
One of the things we love about building Moonlight is our partnerships with amazing indie deck artists. We’re thrilled to host decks like Gothmancy, Viator Somniorum, Mushroom Tarot, Eldritch Overload, Solar Kingdom, and more. We make carefully crafted digital experiences that honor the original artwork while taking advantage of what technology can offer. We even replicated digital holographic foil!
You can purchase decks through our web platform, and they'll automatically sync to your iOS app for practice on the go. Kind of like a Kindle for Tarot.
In addition to indie decks, the app comes with complimentary classics like Rider Waite Smith and Marseille decks, and a deck of memes we made called “Internet Lore Tarot”.

The team behind the app launch
Moonlight founder Danielle Baskin created this iOS app alongside engineer Elizabeth Salazar. Elizabeth has lived in South Korea and Alaska, makes stunning cakes, and when she's not coding, loves playing video games and gardening.
Danielle is a tarot practitioner and educator with 15 years of experience. She’s also a creative technologist and artist. Her last app was Dialup, the platform that connected strangers all over the world in serendipitous phone calls (featured in New Yorker, NYT, WSJ).
What's next?
This is just our first version! We’re listening closely to what our community wants next and we’re currently developing more features to support your tarot practice as a personal and social ritual.
Also! If you’re asking, “Android, when? International iOS, when?” It’s on the roadmap!
Ready to try it?
Moonlight has been serving the tarot community since 2023, and we're excited to bring that same care to iOS. Whether you're a tarot student or a professional looking to deepen your practice, we've built something we think you'll love.
