FamCal Nepali Patro for the whole family

Your bhittepatro, for the whole family.

FamCal is the calm Nepali calendar — the digital बित्ते पात्रो. Bikram Sambat dates beside English, the day's panchang computed right on your phone, festivals and holidays colour-coded, and the family tools that actually help — without the clutter of every other patro app.

Free, on iPhone and Android — store listings are rolling out now. Write to us and we'll send one email the day it's live, nothing else.

The idea

A real wall calendar, in your pocket.

A bhittepatro hangs on the wall: you glance, you see the date, the tithi, the festival — and you move on. FamCal keeps that calm. The depth is there when you want it, never in the way when you don't.

Two calendars, one glance

Bikram Sambat and the English (AD) date, side by side — a Today page that reads like a tear-off, and a month grid that reads like the wall.

Panchang, computed offline

Tithi, nakshatra, sunrise and sunset, rahu kaal — calculated right on your phone from astronomical data, for any year, with no internet needed.

For family, near and far

Set up a parent's phone from abroad, keep their world clock on your dashboard, and send reminders that land on the right calendar at the right time.

What it does

Everything a patro should be. Nothing it shouldn't.

The Nepali calendar, done properly — and a handful of family tools that earn their place on the screen.

Nepali Patro & English, together

Every day shows the Bikram Sambat date and the AD date at once — Devanagari numerals, weekday in Nepali and English.

Daily panchang

Tithi, paksha, nakshatra, yoga, karana, sunrise/sunset and rahu kaal — the full day's reading, with a "see detail" for the rest.

Festivals & holidays, colour-coded

Red for public holidays, saffron for festivals — on every cell — plus a countdown to the next big one, like Dashain or Tihar.

BS ⇄ AD date converter

Convert any Bikram Sambat date to English and back — for forms, birthdays, anniversaries and paperwork, in a tap.

Reminders that follow the tithi

Recurring events the Nepali way — every Ekadashi, Purnima or Aunsi, a shraddha on its death-tithi, a birthday by its tithi — each next date computed for you.

Set up a parent's phone from abroad

Create their account, timezone and clocks for them; they tap one code and they're in — no typing, no sign-up, no login screen.

Care-reminders for family

Set a reminder straight onto a connected member's calendar — medicine, a doctor's visit, a bill — and it shows up on their phone.

World clocks & weather

See the live time and weather where your family lives, and push a clock straight onto their dashboard when you move.

One tap to call your family

A contact card per person with big Call, WhatsApp and Viber buttons — and a hint of whether it's a good hour to ring.

Home-screen widget

Today's date, tithi and festival on your home screen — the truest bhittepatro moment, without opening the app at all.

Elder Mode

Big type, maximum contrast, one-tap calling and a "Read today" button that speaks the date, tithi and festival aloud.

Free, no ads, no tracking

No advertising, no behaviour tracking, no analytics empire. The calendar works offline; only your family stuff ever syncs.

A quick look

Calm to glance at. Deep when you need it.

FamCal's month view: a Bikram Sambat grid with the English date under each day, holidays in red and event dots in saffron.

The month, like the wall

A full Bikram Sambat month with the English date tucked under each day. Saturdays and public holidays stand out in red, festivals in saffron, and a dot marks the days you have something on.

  • BS and AD dates on every cell
  • Holidays, festivals and your events, colour-coded
  • Tap a day for its panchang and what's happening

Your family, in their own time

Keep a live clock for everyone you love — Kathmandu, Sydney, New York — with the local weather alongside. When you move, push your clock onto your parents' dashboard so they always know your hour.

  • Live time and weather, by city — no GPS
  • Push a clock to a family member's phone
  • A reachability hint: a good time to call, or not

Your calendar. Your family. Your data.

The panchang is computed on your phone, so the calendar works with no internet at all. There are no ads and no tracking — we never build a profile of you. Only the things meant to be shared — your events, clocks and family connections — ever leave the device, and you can delete your account and everything in it, in the app, any time.
