pocketplur is the festival app for people who'd rather catch every set than spend the day texting "where are you?" Plan your weekend, find your crew when you get separated, and settle the "who's going to which stage" debate before the gates open. Plan your festival Mark must-sees and maybes from the full lineup. Spot set-time conflicts before they happen, pick which stage to commit to, and see your whole day hour-by-hour. Free time? We'll suggest acts you'd love based on what you've starred. Rally — find your crew anywhere Lost your friends in a huge crowd with no signal? Rally points you straight to them — phone to phone, no cell service needed. How Rally works 1. Add your crew once. Scan each other's pair code — a quick two-way handshake. No phone numbers needed. 2. Get separated. Lose each other in a packed crowd with dead signal? Open Rally. 3. Find them. An on-screen beacon points toward your friend with live direction and distance. Sharpest on iPhone 15 Pro and later (Ultra-Wideband); a guided beacon on earlier iPhones. 4. Stay in touch. Send a text or photo straight to your crew over Bluetooth and peer-to-peer Wi-Fi — no cell service required. Rally is friend-gated: only people you've added can find or message you, and you can block or remove anyone. Messages travel phone to phone; when there's no path, a text can wait briefly on our server, encrypted so we can't read it. Photos only ever travel phone to phone. Decide together Meetups with a place and time, and a group schedule showing every member's picks side by side. Bring your own festival Not in our catalog? Create a custom festival, drop in the lineup, and plan around it like the big ones. Live mode on the day Day-of, the app flips into a now/next view with your next set and your crew's presence at a glance. pocketplur is free — every feature, for everyone. We don't sell your data.
