Most planners store your plans. Planthology pressure-tests them; against the map, the clock, and each other.
🕒
Leave-by for the whole day
Not one alert for one event; your day as a chain. The first leg starts from home base (or tonight's lodging on a trip), each leg starts where the last one ended, and long gaps route you home in between. "Leave by 11:23 AM · 3h 37m drive" sits between every pair of plans, in advance. A notification tells you when to go, with an optional countdown in the Dynamic Island. And day one of a trip knows the truth: that first long drive starts at home, no matter how far it goes.
🚆
Drive, walk, or take the train
Every plan knows how you get to it. Tap the icon on any travel leg to switch between driving, walking, and transit; the leave-by time, notifications, and countdown all follow. Transit estimates are door-to-door — the walk to the station, the ride, and the walk at the far end — so "take the train to work" is one setting, not three plans. Directions open Apple or Google Maps already in the right mode.
🧺
Errands without a schedule
Some days you just need to hit the gym, see your parents, and grab groceries — whenever. Mark a plan "Anytime" and it sits on the day's Whenever shelf instead of the timeline. Then let the app earn its keep: it finds the fastest loop through your stops from home, checks traffic across the whole day for the cheapest hour to go — skipping times that collide with your real plans — and schedules the loop onto your timeline in one tap.
🚦
Days that actually fit
A calendar will happily book dinner across town ten minutes after a hike ends. Planthology knows the drive times, estimates a hike's duration from its mileage and elevation, and flags tight days in orange and impossible ones in red; before you live them.
✅
Plans with a pulse
A plan is an event, a task, and a place in one. Your day shows what's done, what's up next and in how long, and plans complete themselves when you arrive. Recurring events, overlap warnings, a live progress bar through today; and reminders for things without an address.
🗺️
Trips, day by day
Build itineraries with lodging, flights, hikes, and food. Every day gets a map and drive legs between stops; starting from wherever you're sleeping that night. Import GPX routes or search National Park Service trails to fill in hike stats automatically.
🔐
Private sharing
Share a trip view-only or collaborative. It's end-to-end encrypted, with the key riding only in the invite; the server stores ciphertext it can't read. And a shared trip carries lodging, routes, photos, and done-state, not just time blocks.
✨
A past worth keeping
Month in Review and Trip Review turn your plans and photos into stats, a pin map of everywhere you went, and a shareable card sized for Instagram or Messages. A journal you produce just by living your plans.
📲
Widgets that keep score
The Today widget puts your progress bar, the next leave-by, and the day's route map on your Home Screen — and stays correct past midnight without opening the app. The Errands widget lists the day's whenever-list with tappable circles: check things off right from the Home Screen, and the app syncs up next time you open it.
