Never call anyone at 3 AM again.
Orbit shows when your friends and family around the world are awake, so you always call at the right time.
Everyone glows in the colour of their sky:
- Morning
- Day
- Sunset
- Night
Free. No ads. No tracking.
Closer, across any time zone.
Small things that make living far apart feel a little less far.
Best time to call
The best time to call, found.
Tap anyone to see the next time you're both awake, shown in both your times. Turn on a nudge and Orbit lets you know when they're up.
Pings
Never wake anyone up.
Leave a ping instead of buzzing them at 3 AM. They'll see it when they wake. Orbit even shows when they're usually up, in your time too.
Travel
New city? They'll know.
When someone travels, their time updates on its own. Their people get one gentle note, and it waits for morning if it's the middle of the night.
Sam just landed in Tokyo.
Distance orbited
Every trip, counted.
Orbit quietly adds up every trip between cities into your lifetime Distance orbited, with milestones from your first orbit of the Earth all the way to the Moon and back. Tap the number to switch between kilometres and miles. It's counted on your phone only.
How far have you orbited?
Call planner
Plan calls across time zones.
Pick who's joining and Orbit finds the times that work for everyone, then adds the call to your calendar.
Families and cities
Your whole family, in one orb.
When a few of your people live in the same city, Orbit tucks them into one glowing orb, so your orbit stays tidy. Tap the orb to see everyone inside. Bringing in a whole family takes one invite link.
Your people in Vancouver are up.Widgets
Their time, right on your Lock Screen.

Meet Lil Orbie
A little friend who feels it too.
Orbie lives on your Home Screen and reacts to your people's day. Excited when someone's about to wake up, a little sad when they head to bed, sleepy when everyone's out.
Psst. Give your orbit a spin.And all the little things.
