a private family planner · made in nz · out now on ios & android
Pamily is a family planner that runs on your device — no account needed, never any ads. Everything you write — birthdays, school pickups, the shopping list, the note on the fridge — stays on this phone unless you choose to sync, and synced data is end-to-end encrypted.
free · iphone, ipad & android · no account needed
no ads. no data sales. no login.
Your family's content — calendar, tasks, notes, members — never leaves the device. When you delete the app, every byte goes with it.
Anonymous crash reports and screen-view counts are sent to Google Firebase so we can fix bugs and prioritise what to build next. Diagnostics never include your personal content. Turn both off in Settings → Privacy. Full breakdown in the privacy policy.
everything shared with the whole pamily
Hero card, weekly mood, four bento tiles (next event, top task, next birthday, fridge notes), today's timeline — plus a morning summary at the hour you choose and a home-screen widget with today's tasks and the next event.
Day, week and month views in each person's colour. In the Day view, tap a time to add an event or hold one to move it. Birthdays show up every year, double-bookings get flagged, and "Just mine" hides everyone else's plans. The week's meal plan sends its ingredients to the shopping list.
Follow school, club and holiday calendars by link and they keep themselves up to date. Show your phone's own calendars next to the family's, copy family events into one, or import and export .ics files — all one tap from the Calendar tab.
Share a photo, a PDF or a forwarded message into Pamily and it picks out the dates, ready to add as events and to-dos with one tap. The reading happens on your device, and anything you don't add is kept as a note on the fridge.
On phones with built-in AI, ask what's on or what's due, or just say what to add — out loud, if you'd rather not type. It runs on your device, nothing leaves it, and nothing is added until you tap.
Bucketed by today / this week / later / done. Assign one person or several, mark urgent, set due dates. Chores repeat on the weekdays you pick and rotate through the family, and reminders carry Done & Snooze buttons.
Every household member with their own colour, role, avatar and birthday. Quiet Wins each week shows who's been carrying the load.
A digital fridge. Pin the important ones, snap photos and PDFs straight onto it — even shared from other apps — and turn any note into a tickable checklist. The shopping list lives here.
Track Netflix, school fees, sports clubs. End-of-year rollup of what your family did: events attended, tasks closed, busiest weeks.
optional · subscription · end-to-end encrypted
your cloud. your keys.
On the Personal plan the storage backend is your own iCloud or Google Drive — we don't host your data at all. On the Family plan we host it for real-time sharing, but we literally can't read it: everything is end-to-end encrypted on your device with a key that never reaches our servers. Either way, ciphertext only.
The subscription pays for ongoing development, not for cloud storage — that's already yours. Cancel any time in the App Store or Play Store; your data stays readable. No lock-in.
accessibility
Text scaling up to 2.0×, large tap targets everywhere, VoiceOver & TalkBack labels on every control, WCAG-AA contrast, reduce-motion respected on every animation and transition.
adaptive
Phone, tablet, desktop and foldables — the tab bar becomes a navigation rail on bigger screens, and the fridge becomes a multi-column pinboard.
localised
18 languages, from English, Filipino and Spanish to Japanese, Hindi and both Chinese scripts. Locale-aware dates, weekday strips and number formats.
backup, on your terms
Export an encrypted backup to iCloud, Google Drive, AirDrop, USB — anywhere you trust. Restore on any device by importing the file.
wipe in one tap
Settings → "Wipe data on this device" clears every member, event, task, note, and saved setting. No undo, no exceptions.
made quietly
Built by one developer in New Zealand. Not venture-funded. Will never sell your data, because there's nothing to sell.
