Pendul

Know when to go.

Pendul watches the road between your places and shows the next three hours at a glance — so the cheapest moment to leave for work, or home, is obvious.

Free · iPhone · iOS 17 or later · no account required

What it does

One question, answered the moment you open it

When should I leave right now? Pendul sweeps the next three hours of departure times, asks Apple Maps for the traffic-aware drive at each, and surfaces the quickest one.

The next 3 hours at a glance

One screen, no typing. Pendul sweeps twelve departure times across the next three hours and draws them as a single, readable curve — the shallow, quick times stand out from the deep, slow ones.

Traffic-aware, from Apple Maps

Every drive time comes from Apple Maps with live traffic, asked fresh for each departure. The cheapest moment to leave is obvious at a glance.

Knows which way you are heading

To work in the morning, home later — inferred from where you are. Set your two places once and Pendul takes it from there.

Calm by design

A quiet interface with a little delight on every screen. Slide across the chart to see exactly when you would arrive.

A look inside

Built to be read in a single glance

Leave now, or wait?

The big number is the drive if you go right now. The curve below is the next three hours.

Private by design

Nothing about where you go ever leaves your device

Every departure time is computed on your phone with Apple Maps. There are no accounts, no tracking, and no umage servers — your home and work places are stored only on your device.
