About

RanPlan

Features
Read full description

Most planners assume you get up at the same time every day. RanPlan schedules from the moment you actually wake. Set a task for two hours after waking instead of 9:00, tap I WOKE UP when you get up, and every flexible task resolves to a real time. Pills two hours after waking becomes 9:20 today and 11:40 tomorrow. "Take these two hours after you wake." "Second dose eight hours after the first." Instructions like these are relative to waking, and a calendar cannot hold them, because a calendar only knows clock times. The usual workarounds are an alarm that fires at the wrong time, or doing the arithmetic yourself every morning. Built for shift workers, anyone on timed medication, people whose sleep does not keep to a schedule, and new parents. Free Fixed-time tasks, daily and custom repeats, one-off reminders, notifications and the full calendar. No time limit. RanPlan Pro Wake-relative scheduling Reusable routines I WOKE UP on the Lock Screen and in Control Centre Widgets, Shortcuts and Siri Alarm sounds that play through Silent Mode on iOS 26 and later Free for seven days, then Monthly $4.99, Yearly $29.99 which is $2.50 per month, or Lifetime $59.99 paid once. No account, no server Your tasks stay on the device and the app works in Airplane Mode. There are no ads on any plan, free or paid. RanPlan does measure whether its own ads worked, which means a device identifier and whether you subscribed can be shared with the ad platform. iOS asks your permission for that, and saying no changes nothing about how the app works. Subscriptions renew automatically unless cancelled at least 24 hours before the end of the period. Cancel any time in Settings. Payment is charged to your Apple Account on confirmation of purchase. Any unused portion of a free trial is forfeited when a subscription is purchased. Terms of Use: https://ranplan.app/terms Privacy Policy: https://ranplan.app/privacy
