Velani vs Psst

You're not at the start. You're not at the finish line. You're in the middle, where life actually happens. The morning rush. The overlapping schedules. The "did anyone grab groceries?" messages that never get answered. The middle is messy and loud and nonstop, and no one is coming to organize it for you. Velani is one place where your household stays anchored. Shared calendars, tasks, notes, and conversations, all in one secure space. No outsiders. No spam. No friend requests. Just your people, finally in sync. And if it is just you? Velani is still for you. One person with a life that needs managing is a household too. Appointments, errands, reminders, and the mental load of keeping it all straight. Velani gives you one calm place to hold it so nothing lives in your head or scattered across ten apps. It does not matter if Velani is just for you, you and your partner, your kids, your whole family, or you are helping care for aging parents and in laws. Solo or surrounded by people. However your household looks today, Velani is built for it. THE CALENDAR IS FREE See everyone's schedule in one place, or just yours. Week view puts the days ahead front and center. Filter by person or see the whole household at once. Real time updates so nothing slips through. Weather on every event so you are never caught off guard. Add checklists to events for packing, errands, and what to bring. Maps come to events. Start typing a location and pick from live suggestions — no more typos or vague addresses. Event details show a map preview, and one tap opens directions in Apple Maps or Google Maps. Connect Google, Apple Calendar, or Outlook if you already live there. YOUR HUB Velani opens on Hub, your home base. Swap between members on the carousel, see today's events, tasks, and notes at a glance, and use quick actions to add an event, task, or note in one tap. Tap into any member's week without asking. Stay in the loop without the group text chaos. The Family Map lives here too. Opt in to Location Sharing and see where your household is — a live map on your Hub, and a full-screen map whenever you need it. Sharing is completely your choice: pause anytime, turn it off, or hide the map on your device. Velani shares only your latest spot — never a movement history. Save places like Home or School and get alerts when family arrives or leaves. TASKS Create a task. Assign it, or keep it for yourself. Everyone knows what is theirs. Checklists and visual progress keep things moving. Notifications when you are assigned or when something changes. No more "I didn't know that was mine." NOTES Everything you or your family needs to remember, in one place. Doctor info, school details, packing lists, babysitter instructions, and more. Tag members, pin what matters, and choose who can see each note. THREADS Household chat that stays with your household. Share photos. Run polls. What is for dinner? Vote on it. Keep conversations in Velani instead of buried in texts. HOME SCREEN WIDGETS Glance at upcoming events from your Home Screen. Member photos and real calendar data, with privacy built in. PRIVATE BY DESIGN Your household's information stays with your household. No ads. No data selling. No strangers. Just the people under your roof. Location sharing is opt-in, and you stay in control — pause it, turn it off, or keep your spot private while still seeing everyone else.

Psst is a shared shopping list that remembers what things cost. Photograph a receipt and the lines come back structured, each one showing a crop of the actual row it was read from. Add tomatoes next week and it tells you what they cost last time, and where. Underneath it is a proper shared list, at home and at work. Everyone sees every change as it happens. No more screenshots of a notes app, no more "did you already buy the milk?" texts. WHAT YOU CAN DO - Photograph a receipt and it files every line with its price and shop. - Make a list for anything: groceries, chores, packing, errands, a project, an event. - Share it with family, a partner, roommates, or your team, free, with real collaboration. - See changes live as people add and check things off. - Assign items to people, with reminders that actually fire. - Sort by what's due today so the right things float to the top. - Search across every list to find an item fast. - Works fully offline: add and tick items with no signal, everything syncs when you're back. WHAT IT REMEMBERS, AND WHEN IT KEEPS QUIET Reading a receipt is the easy half. Most of the work went into refusing to report a price change it cannot stand behind. - Lines it is unsure about are marked for you rather than quietly saved. - Every line shows a crop of the row it came from, so a correction is a glance instead of a re-read of the paper. - Two prices measured in different units are never compared at all. A 500g pack against a per-kilo price makes a clean, credible, entirely invented "up 100%". - Comparison is on unit price, never the line total. Buying the 2kg bag instead of the 1kg one is not a price rise. - Price history is built from your own receipts. It is not a price comparison service and knows nothing about shops you have not shopped at. REAL COLLABORATION, BUILT IN (AND FREE) Most to-do apps are made for one person, with sharing bolted on later. Psst is built to share from the start, and the depth is free: - Roles: invite people as editors or viewers, so the wrong change can't happen. - Activity feed: see who added, checked off, or edited what, and when. - Comments on any item: decide right next to the task, not in a separate chat. - Approvals: turn them on and a collaborator ticking something off waits for the owner to approve it. - Live presence: see how many people are in a list, and who is editing an item as they type. BUILT FOR THE WAY YOU ACTUALLY PLAN - Couples: a shared grocery list, errands, the move, the trip. - Families: the running shopping list, the chore rota, the school run, the meal plan. - Roommates: who's buying what, shared bills, the cleaning schedule. - Work and teams: a lightweight shared checklist without the project-management overhead. - Travel and events: a packing list everyone adds to, a day-of run sheet. MORE THAN A CHECKLIST - Due dates and reminders, including recurring tasks (daily, weekly, monthly). - Sections to group items, plus a board view when you would rather see columns. - Calendar sync so due dates land where you already look. - Quick-add that understands plain language. - Themes, and unlimited lists on Pro. PRIVATE BY DEFAULT Your lists are yours. A list is only visible to the people you share it with. No ads, no tracking, no selling your data. Free to use with real sharing, not a crippled demo. Go Pro, or grab the one-time lifetime deal, when you want unlimited lists and more collaborators. Stop texting each other your to-do lists. Make one in Psst, share it, and watch it stay in sync. Psst Pro and Psst Family are auto-renewing subscriptions. Payment is charged to your Apple ID account at confirmation of purchase. The subscription renews automatically unless it is cancelled at least 24 hours before the end of the current period. Manage or cancel it any time in your Apple ID account settings.
