Catch Ups

A picnic, minus the who’s-bringing-what thread

Picking the park, watching the forecast and making sure there’s more than six bags of chips. Plynr keeps the whole picnic in one place, so all you need to bring is a rug.

Sound familiar?

Who’s bringing what

Everyone brings dips and nobody brings plates. Splitting the food gets messy fast.

Watching the weather

The forecast changes daily, and moving the date means starting the thread all over again.

Finding the right spot

Shade, toilets, parking and somewhere for the kids to play. Everyone has a different park in mind.

How to plan it in Plynr

1

Pick the day and the park

Send a Poll with a few dates or parks. Everyone votes, and the winner updates your Plyn.

2

Send a Quick Plyn

Add the time, the exact spot and what to bring. Friends RSVP in seconds via the app or on the web.

3

Sort the food

Use the chat inside the Plyn to split mains, snacks and drinks, and let reminders do the nudging.

4

Relive it afterwards

Once it’s done, it becomes a Past Plyn. Everyone adds their photos, and you can keep private notes of the best moments.

Questions

What should you bring to a group picnic?

A rug, shade, plates and cups, a bin bag, sunscreen and water, plus a share of the food. Put the list in the Plyn so nothing doubles up.

How do you split food for a picnic?

Assign categories like mains, salads, snacks, dessert and drinks, so everyone brings something different.

What if the weather turns?

Pick a backup date or an undercover spot when you plan it. If you need to move it, update the Plyn and everyone sees the change.

Can friends RSVP without the app?

Yes. Guests can RSVP on the web without downloading the app.

That picnic you keep saying you’ll do?

Just send a Plyn. Free on iPhone and Android.
