Features
Everything a good travel day depends on.
The plan, the forecast, the light and the people you’re with, tied to the hour you’ll actually be somewhere.
Weather for every stop
Each activity gets the forecast for the hour you’ll be there: temperature, rain, wind and UV. Not just a city-wide average for the day.
Golden hour and sunset spots
Sunrise, sunset, golden hour and blue hour for every day of the trip, with suggestions for the best place to watch the sun go down nearby.
Routes that make sense
See how the day connects on foot, by bike or by car, and reorder stops to cut out the backtracking.
Plan together, live
Invite the people you’re traveling with as editors or viewers. Every change shows up for everyone straight away.
Share the moments
Post photos from the road, follow other travelers and save places for later. Each post can be public, for followers, for trip members or just for you.
Ready without signal
Trips you’ve opened stay on your phone, so the plan is there when the connection isn’t. Sun times are calculated on the device.
How it works
From a rough idea to a day that works.
Start a trip
Add where you’re going and when. Pathway sets up a day for every date, with sunrise, sunset and golden hour already worked out.
Shape each day
Add places, meals and plans. Each stop picks up its forecast, its light and the time it takes to get there.
Go, together
Share the trip with the people you’re traveling with, get a heads-up when the weather turns, and keep the moments worth remembering.

Sample quotes for illustration. Not from real customers yet.
“We moved Sintra to the one clear morning of the week because the forecast was on the stop itself, not just the city. Best call of the trip.”

FAQ
Questions, answered.
Which devices does Pathway work on?
Pathway is an app for iPhone and Android phones. It also runs on iPad.
Where does the weather come from?
Forecasts come from Open-Meteo, and the app shows the source next to the data. If a forecast can’t be loaded, Pathway tells you rather than showing old or made-up numbers.
How are sunrise, sunset and golden-hour times worked out?
They’re calculated on your phone with the NOAA solar algorithm, so they work without a connection. They’re accurate to within a minute or two for a flat horizon, and the app labels them “Calculated”.
Can I plan a trip with friends?
Yes. Invite people to a trip as editors, who can change the plan, or viewers, who can follow along. Changes sync for everyone in real time.
Does it work without signal?
Trips you’ve already opened are saved on your phone, and the app shows when you’re offline. Sun times keep working; forecasts refresh when you’re back online.
Who can see my posts and my location?
You decide per post: everyone, your followers, people on the trip, or only you. Locations can be shared exactly, approximately, at city level, or hidden. Pathway never tracks your location in the background.
Can I delete my account?
Yes. You can delete your account from Settings in the app.
