A better view, not another calendar

A home screen widget drawn from the calendar you already have. iCloud, Google, Outlook, Exchange, subscribed school and sports calendars, birthdays. If it appears in the iOS Calendar app, it appears in Daypath. Nothing to switch, nothing to migrate.

Your day, where it actually sits

Today is an arc from sunrise to sunset, with your events on the curve where they really fall. A two hour meeting takes up two hours of sky, the sun on the arc is now, and the hours nobody has claimed stay open and empty.

The month and the year

The shape of your month at a glance, with the moon running its own path beside the sun. Then the year, so you can see whether your days are getting longer or shorter and the exact day the light turns back around.

Anywhere on Earth

Pick any location and the sky, the arc and the horizon are computed on your device for that spot, at any latitude. Daypath speaks the local language and marks the season the way that place marks it, from solstices and equinoxes to the solar terms and microseasons of the traditional almanac.

For most of human history the day was kept by the sun. Waking, working, resting, all of it read straight off the sky. Your body still runs on the sun. You just stopped paying attention.

Days became boxes on a screen, and time became numbers we all agreed to treat as important. Useful, but the day lost its meaning. Daypath is more than a beautiful way to see your calendar. It gives the day back its shape, and permission to leave daylight unspent.
