Nebula vs My Horoscope: an honest comparison (2026)

If you’re looking for a Nebula alternative, or trying to work out what Nebula really costs, here’s the short answer. The two products run on different models. Nebula is an astrology app with a marketplace of live advisors you chat with and pay by the minute. My Horoscope is a flat monthly membership: written readings generated from your birth chart, tarot, dream interpretation, palm reading, and a digital guide named Astra. Nobody live is on the other end.

So pick Nebula if you want a conversation with a human advisor, in a native app, in one of many languages. Pick My Horoscope if you want to know your monthly cost in advance and you’re happy reading on your own. We make My Horoscope, so keep that in mind. Facts about Nebula come from its website, FAQ, and store listings, checked on November 13, 2026.

Nebula is an astrology app combined with a paid marketplace of live advisors, whom it calls psychic advisors, available by chat. The App Store lists the seller as Spiritual Nebula Limited. It runs on iOS, Android, and the web.

The company’s own timeline explains how it got here. It launched its first astrology app for iOS in May 2019, added Android and a web version in July 2020, opened the advisor marketplace in 2022, and in 2025 rebranded as “Nebula: Spiritual Guidance Space.” The store name today is “Nebula: Spiritual Guidance.”

On the free side, Nebula advertises free daily horoscopes, a free natal chart, and compatibility checks. Its app also lists tarot, including a card of the day, and palm reading. The homepage describes “900+ psychics,” and a disclaimer says readings are “for entertainment and self-reflection purposes.”

We couldn’t find a stated calculation basis or house system for its charts, or who writes its horoscope text.

As of November 13, 2026, Nebula has a 4.6 rating from 170,938 ratings on the US App Store, and 4.3 from about 86.6K reviews on Google Play, with more than 5 million downloads. The App Store lists English and 26 more languages. That reach is far beyond ours.

My Horoscope is a web app from a small independent team. It started in the Czech Republic, runs in five languages, and its English version is new in 2026. There’s no App Store or Google Play app. It opens in a browser on a phone or computer, and you can add it to your home screen for one notification each morning.

We publish our method: charts are calculated with the Swiss Ephemeris and Placidus houses, as described on how we calculate your horoscope. Readings are generated from your calculated chart and the day’s transits with the help of AI. We have no live astrologers or advisors. Astra, the guide in the chat, is digital, and members always know that.

The free Seeker plan includes a daily horoscope for your sign, a card of the day, and a dream dictionary. Star ($4.49 per month) adds personal daily, weekly, and monthly horoscopes. Cosmos ($7.49) adds the birth chart reading, transits, and palm reading. Oracle ($9.49) adds dream interpretation and a morning message from Astra. An extra reading is $1.99, and nothing is billed by the minute.

Nebula’s features and prices are as listed on November 13, 2026. Where we couldn’t confirm something, the table says so.

On paper the feature lists overlap a lot: horoscopes, a chart, compatibility, tarot, palm reading. The difference is in who does the reading and how you pay for it, which is what the next sections cover.

Nebula’s core paid service is time with an advisor. On its homepage, advisor cards show prices from “Chat for $2/min” to “Chat for $4.99/min,” and a banner offers new customers “3 Minutes FREE + 80% OFF.” Its FAQ explains that chat is paid in credits, at 30 credits per minute. In the app, the FAQ lists a live chat at 2.99 per minute and a single question at $7.99.

That’s how pricing works for any live service: you’re paying for a person’s time, and the meter runs while you talk. As plain arithmetic, at the homepage rates a 10-minute chat comes to between $20 and $49.90 before any new-customer discount. Nebula’s web subscription, per its FAQ, includes 150 welcome credits and 150 credits every two weeks. At 30 credits a minute, 150 credits is five minutes of chat. We couldn’t confirm that subscription’s price.

My Horoscope charges nothing by the minute. You pick a plan, and the price is the price: $4.49, $7.49, or $9.49 a month. Limits are counted in readings and messages, not time. Oracle, for example, includes 15 tarot readings, 5 dream interpretations, and 40 Astra messages a month. If you run out, an extra reading or 20 more messages is $1.99.

These aren’t the same service at two prices. One is a human being’s attention, live. The other is software that reads your chart. If you do use a per-minute service, it helps to set a budget before you open the chat and to have your question ready.

Nebula describes its advisors as people with years of experience, and the conversation happens live. For a lot of people that’s the whole point. You can explain a messy situation, get asked a question back, and feel heard by someone. We don’t offer that.

Astra is a different thing. She’s a digital astrology guide who knows your birth chart, your current transits, and what you’ve told her before, so you don’t start from zero each time. She doesn’t predict events, she isn’t a doctor or a lawyer, and in a crisis she points to human help.

Nebula’s own disclaimer says its readings are for entertainment and self-reflection. We describe astrology the same way: a tool for reflection, not a forecast of facts.

What do users say? Some recent App Store reviews of Nebula praise specific advisors by name and call the charts and readings helpful. Others mention that credits are expensive, that friend profiles were removed in a recent update, or that an advisor’s predictions didn’t come true. That’s a small sample of opinions, and live readings will always vary with the person you reach.

Beyond advisor chat, Nebula sells subscriptions. The US App Store lists six items named “Premium subscription,” at $2.99, $7.99, $7.99, $29.99, $39.99, and $49.99, without showing the billing period for each. Google Play shows a range of “$0.99 - $299.99 per item.” We couldn’t find subscription prices on Nebula’s website. Its FAQ mentions a 7-day trial on the web and a 3-day trial in the app, so we couldn’t confirm the current trial terms. The same FAQ notes that lifetime plans can’t be cancelled. Before you subscribe, read the price and period on the purchase screen itself.

On data, Nebula’s App Store privacy label declares data used for third-party advertising and data used to track you, including purchases, contact info, identifiers, and usage. Its privacy policy page didn’t load as readable text for us, so we can’t summarize it.

For our part: My Horoscope shows no ads inside the product, stores birth data encrypted on servers in the European Union, and doesn’t sell it. What we collect and which processors we use is in our privacy policy. Our prices are public on the membership page, each with its billing period.

• You want to talk to a person. Live chat with a human advisor is Nebula’s core, and we have nothing like it.
• You want a native app on iPhone or Android, with a web version too.
• You need another language. The App Store lists English and 26 more.
• You want a free natal chart. Ours comes with a written reading, but it’s part of a paid plan.
• You want a community of other users inside the product.
• You’re comfortable with per-minute pricing and know roughly how long you want to talk.

• You want a fixed monthly cost. No credits and no meter.
• You like to read. Daily, weekly, and monthly horoscopes written from your chart, not from your sign alone.
• You want dream interpretation on demand. Describe a dream and get a written interpretation, without booking an advisor.
• You want to know how your chart is calculated. We publish the ephemeris and the house system.
• You’re fine with a digital guide. Astra is software, clearly labeled, and included in your plan.
• You read on a computer as often as on your phone.

A direct price comparison would mislead you, because the two sell different things. If you’d use Nebula only for its free horoscopes and chart, it costs nothing. If you want advisor time, your cost depends on how many minutes you spend. With us, the most you can pay for a plan is $9.49 a month, plus $1.99 for any extra you choose to buy. Plans renew monthly, and you can cancel anytime in Settings.

Bottom line: if you want someone to talk to, that’s Nebula, and it’s a service we don’t provide. If you want something to read and think over, at a price you know in advance, start with our free plan.

Good places to start here: today’s daily horoscope, your birth chart, a free card in tarot reading, the dream dictionary, palm reading, and the membership page.
