## What is DayRoot?

Good days grow from good roots.

DayRoot plans your day backward from the moment you need to arrive. Tell it
where you're headed and when — it watches live traffic, reads your calendar,
and taps you at three calm moments:

GET READY — a gentle heads-up while there's still time
LEAVE — one clear moment to go, computed from live traffic
ARRIVE — on time. Calm. Rooted.

WHY DAYROOT IS DIFFERENT

• It learns how you actually run. Tend to run late at one place? DayRoot
  quietly pads your buffer there — and trims it back when you're early.
• A real alarm, not just a ping. If your day starts with a drive, DayRoot can
  wake you at your get-ready time — and if traffic turns bad overnight, it
  plans with tomorrow morning's traffic, not tonight's.
• Your calendar, alive. Events with a place get live travel times; video calls and errands without one become simple tasks - never a fake "leave at".
• One root line for the whole day. Trips and tasks grow on a single calm
  timeline. Finish something and it grows a leaf.

CALM BY DESIGN

• No account. No ads. No analytics trackers.
• Your day stays on your device.
• Location only while you use the app — your movements are never tracked.
• Full policy: dayroot.app/privacy
- Battery-friendly by design. No background GPS, no constant polling - reminders are scheduled with the system, so DayRoot sips power even with nudges on all day.

FREE FOREVER

The core magic is free, always: your place, exactly when to leave, adaptive
learning, and a streak that grows with your on-time days.

DAYROOT PRO

Every place you care about, full calendar autopilot, tasks and daily
routines — $3.99/month or $29.99/year.

Good days grow from good roots. Plant one.

### 5/5 — Best Alarm Ever

*2026-07-23*

Finally someone came up with this idea, I used to spend every evening counting when to get up and when to leave, now all I do is just put the time of arrival, location and dont need to set alarm, app does everything for me. Calendar integration is a nice touch as well.

*2026-07-21*

- Repeat tasks: daily, weekdays, or the days you pick.
- Planted tasks stay in your tray after rooting - root the same one tomorrow.
- All-day events show as a calm banner ("day 3 of 5"); long-press to hide.
- Events without an address become tasks - no leave times for video calls.
- Very long routes ask if the address is right.
