Know the good days ahead, and who to spend them with.

Days Like These is an app for the things you love doing outside. It watches the forecast and tells you three to seven days ahead when a good day is coming — time to take the day, and time to get your people in.

Saturday · 4 days out

looks like a beach day

Looking likely

24°C at Princess Bay, dry all day with a light breeze. Sun from mid-morning, so worth taking the shade tent.

Aroha and Sam are free.

Example alerts. Your days, your spots, your crew — and only the days we genuinely think will happen.

How it works

From “we should do that sometime” to an actual plan.

Two minutes of setup, then it does the remembering for you.

Setup, in your words

Tell me when Princess Bay has a warm, dry beach day for the kids.

A parent, planning a family day out

No units to convert and no thresholds to set. That sentence is the whole setup.

And it learns from you

Tell it a day was a good one and it edges closer to your version of a good day — not a shared setting everyone gets.

  1. Tell it what you love

    Pick two or three things that make a good day for you — a surf, a bush walk, a beach day with the kids, an afternoon in the garden. Or name your own.

  2. It watches the days ahead

    We keep an eye on the next week at your spots and check it against what you actually care about. Waves, wind, sun, rain, temperature, cloud — in the words you’d use yourself.

  3. You get a heads-up in time to plan

    Three to seven days out, you hear that a good one is lining up. Early enough to ask for the day, block it out and sort the rest — not a forecast for right now, but a decision you can actually make.

  4. Bring your crew

    Share the day with the people you’d want there. They don’t need the app to say “I’m in” — the invite opens in a browser.

Your kind of day

Not just the sports.

The best day of your week might be a picnic, an afternoon in the garden, or a clear night with the telescope out. Adventurous or completely ordinary — it all counts, and you can name your own.

For the ones with jobs

The whole point is the notice. A good day you find out about on the day is a good day you’ve already spent at work.

For the ones who organise everyone else

You don’t need to be across the forecast, or the swell height, or the wind direction. You just need to know it’s on — and who to ask.

For every kind of day out

A summit and a vege patch both count. We won’t nudge you about the days that don’t happen, and we won’t oversell the weather.

Honest confidence

We tell you how sure we are.

A forecast days out is a bet, and we’d rather show you the odds than pretend there aren’t any. Every call comes with the same three words, in the same order, every time.

Worth watching

Something’s in the mix. Too far out to plan your week around, but we’ll keep an eye on it and tell you if it firms up.

Looking likely

Good enough that it’s worth protecting the time. We’d start mentioning it to people.

Lock it in

As sure as we get, days ahead. Take the leave, book the ferry, tell the crew it’s happening.

And when we get it wrong

We called Saturday wrong — the wind came up by ten. We’d rather say that plainly than explain it away, and the miss is what our next call learns from. Next good window looks like Tuesday.

Questions

The short answers.

Where do the forecasts come from?

We compare several forecast models for each of your spots, rather than trusting just one. When they agree, you’ll hear it in the confidence word.

Where does it work?

New Zealand first. We’re opening region by region, starting in Aotearoa. Somewhere else? Join anyway and pick “Somewhere else”.

iPhone or Android?

iPhone first, with Android soon after. Join either way and we’ll email you when there’s a version for your phone.

What does it cost?

It’s free at launch.

What happens to my email?

We use it to invite you in and tell you when your region opens. We don’t sell or share it. Email privacy@dayslikethese.app any time and we’ll delete it.

When do I get in?

We’re letting people in a small group at a time, region by region. We’ll email you when it’s your turn.

Get the first good days.

We’re opening in small groups, starting in Aotearoa New Zealand. Add your email and we’ll be in touch when it’s your turn — nothing else, no noise.

What’s your good day? optional, pick any

We keep your email, activities and region on a Cloudflare server to run this waitlist and invite early testers, and never sell or share them. Plausible counts visits without cookies or identifying you, and there’s no ad code here. Email privacy@dayslikethese.app to be deleted any time.
