As answered by people managing ShellNewHandler and 8Signs.io.
8Signs.io's answer:
Most astrology apps start from your star sign. 8 Signs reads your Bazi chart, the Four Pillars of Chinese astrology: eight characters from the year, month, day and hour you were born. The chart is worked out by a rules engine rather than a template (true solar time for your birth place, the Five Elements, the Ten Gods, hidden stems and luck cycles), and AI then explains it in plain English. You can ask your chart follow-up questions in Seek, see how you fit with other people in Connections, and read 15 parts of your life in Discover.
8Signs.io's answer:
Co-Star, The Pattern and CHANI are built on Western astrology. If you want your Bazi chart, 8 Signs works it out from your exact birth time and place and explains it without jargon. You get a free reading of your chart, a chat where you can ask your chart anything, 15 parts of your life, compatibility with anyone, and in-depth written reports. It works in the browser and on Android, and it is free to start.
8Signs.io's answer:
People who enjoy astrology and want more than a star sign, especially those who have heard of Bazi or Chinese astrology but find it hard to read on their own. Also people who want to understand a partner, a friend, family or a colleague through their chart.
8Signs.io's answer:
8 Signs began with a simple frustration: star signs felt generic, and Bazi, which uses the year, month, day and hour you were born, was mostly locked away in paid consultations and jargon-heavy websites. So 8 Signs works the chart out the traditional way with a rules engine, and uses AI to explain it in plain English, so anyone can read their own chart and ask it questions.
8Signs.io's answer:
Next.js on Vercel for the web app, React Native (Expo) for Android, Supabase (Postgres and Edge Functions) for the backend and the rules-based Bazi engine, Azure OpenAI for the written explanations, and Stripe and RevenueCat for payments.

Use Shell New Handler. Run the portable app and simply untick the items you don't want to appear in your new context menu. Source: about 4 years ago
I've always used ShellNewHandler for this. It's a really simple portable utility that allows you to remove most of the items from that menu. Tested it out on Windows 11 and it's still compatible. Source: over 5 years ago
