One tap. Plans actually happen. Plan your events and to-dos on one simple timeline. No more group chat mess. No more "what time again?" No more plans that fall apart. FOCUS ON WHAT'S NEXT A busy mind loses track fast. PlanThat shows you one simple timeline, not a long list. Focus Mode cuts through the noise and shows only what matters next. Less stress. More done. ON EVERY SCREEN YOU USE iPhone, iPad, Mac, and Apple Watch. Your timeline follows you, so the plan is always a glance away. The Mac app is built natively for the desktop, with room to see your whole week at once. GREAT FOR GROUPS You shouldn't be the only one who remembers. Share a plan and everyone sees the same thing at the same time. The people you invite don't even need the app. WORKS WITH YOUR CALENDARS The events you already keep in Apple Calendar and Google Calendar show up right on your PlanThat timeline, so everything lives in one place. They stay read-only until you choose to turn one into a full PlanThat plan you can edit and share. MEET AVA Ava is your planning assistant. Ask for what you need in plain words and she suggests plans you can accept or skip. Nothing lands on your timeline until you say so. GET A REAL RSVP Tired of "maybe" and no reply? Send a link and let people RSVP in seconds. No account needed. Now you know who's coming. NEVER MISS A DUE DATE Give any to-do a deadline and PlanThat reminds you before time runs out. A quick "Due soon" or "Overdue" tag keeps the important things in view. KNOW WHEN TO LEAVE See the weather and drive time on a plan, and get a reminder when it's time to go. ALWAYS WITH YOU Keep your next plan on your Lock Screen and Dynamic Island. The details stay with you. SPEAKS YOUR LANGUAGE Fully translated into English, Spanish, Portuguese, French, and German.
