PalnaEvery feed, nap and vaccine. In your language.
Palna remembers the last feed, the next vaccine and tonight's medicine, so you don't have to. Log in one tap, share with the whole family, and keep going when the internet or the electricity doesn't.
Palna gives general information from the WHO, NHS, CDC and Pakistan's EPI. It is not a medical device and doesn't replace your doctor. In an emergency, call Rescue 1122 or Edhi 115.
Made for Pakistan
Not a foreign app translated later. Built here, for families here.
Most baby apps assume a US vaccine schedule, American food and a steady connection. Palna starts from how babies are raised in Pakistan.
English, Urdu or Roman Urdu
Every screen in proper Nastaliq Urdu, right to left, or in Roman Urdu for WhatsApp-style reading. Each family member picks their own.
Pakistan's EPI schedule
BCG at birth through Measles-Rubella and Typhoid at 9 months, with due dates worked out from your baby's birthday and reminders the day before.

A starting-solids guide with the foods you actually cook: daal, lauki, chikoo, qeema and dahi, with how to prepare each for your baby's age.
Works in load-shedding
Everything is saved on your phone first. No signal, no electricity, no problem: it syncs to the family when you're back online.
1122 and Edhi, one tap away

Heat and summer advice
Keeping babies cool in 45° heat, when a breastfed baby doesn't need water, and the signs of dehydration to watch for.

Questions
Frequently asked
When can I download Palna?
Palna is in final testing and coming to Google Play and the App Store soon. Email hello@palnacare.com and we'll tell you the day it launches.
Does it work without internet?
Yes. Everything you log is saved on your phone first, so Palna works in load-shedding, on a weak signal or with no data at all. It syncs with your family when you're back online.

It follows Pakistan's Expanded Programme on Immunization (EPI). Schedules change and can differ by province, so always confirm dates with your vaccinator or child specialist.
