Check whether your store is open before you head out. DontGoMart tracks the mandatory closing days of large supermarkets and Costco in Korea, and reminds you before they shut. See today's status at a glance Open the app and the first thing you see is whether your stores are open today, followed by a countdown to the next closed day and a list of upcoming ones. Covers regional schedules Pick stores that close on Sundays or Wednesdays, or regions with their own rules such as Ulsan and Jeju. Costco regular warehouses and the Daegu, Ilsan and Ulsan locations each have their own setting. Lunar New Year and Chuseok closures are included too. Add your neighborhood store If a store isn't listed, add it yourself by choosing which weeks and which weekday it closes, for example the second and fourth Sunday. Your go-to restaurants, too Add the regular days off of restaurants you visit often and see which of them close in the next seven days. Paste a link shared from Naver Map or pick a screenshot of the restaurant's info page, and the closing days are filled in for you. Text in photos is read on your device only. Reminders that fit your routine Get an alert 1, 2, 3 or 7 days ahead at the time you choose, plus an optional reminder the day before that today is a good day to shop. When a closed day is three days away or less, a banner also appears at the top of the app. Home Screen and Lock Screen widgets Keep the nearest closed day, the next two closed days with a countdown, this Sunday's open or closed status, or your restaurants' next seven days on your Home Screen. The Sunday and restaurant widgets work on the Lock Screen as well. Calendar and sharing Browse a full month of closed days in the calendar, and send the news as a card with a two-week calendar and a shopping tip. Cards come in Instagram post and Story sizes, and as short videos. Every feature is free. If the app saves you a trip, you can support development with a coffee.
