Playly Open in your browser

See when the kids can play.

Playly finds the times your kids and their friends are both free, so arranging a playdate takes one tap instead of twenty texts.

Free. For parents and guardians.

How it works

Set it up once. After that, a playdate is a tap.

  1. Add when your kids are free

    Weekend mornings, Wednesdays after school. Set it once for each child.

    The My kids screen, with each child’s free hours
  2. Connect with families you know

    Scan each other’s code at pickup, or add them by username or from your contacts.

  3. Pick a time and send it

    Playly lists every time that works for everyone. Choose one, add a place, done.

    Choosing a two-hour playdate in a free afternoon
Calendar settings with iCloud, Google and Outlook calendars, each marked with whose it is

Works with your calendar

Turn on calendar sync and Playly skips the times you’re already busy. The iCloud, Google and Outlook calendars on your iPhone all count. Confirmed playdates go straight into your calendar, with a reminder before each one.

Other families only ever see that you’re busy, never what’s in your calendar.

Private by design

Playly is about your children, so it keeps as little as it can and shows even less.

  • First names and free times.That’s all other families see of your kids. No surnames, birthdays or schools.
  • Busy, not what you’re doing.Only the start and end of busy times leave your phone. Event titles never do.
  • Your contacts stay yours.Playly checks which contacts already use it, and keeps none of them.
  • No ads, no tracking.And any family can be reported or blocked. Read the privacy policy.
