Skylight is known for the physical touchscreen on the kitchen wall, with an app and a Plus subscription. Lovely, but a sizeable investment. Honest comparison (checked July 2026).
| Feature | Planninn | Skylight |
|---|---|---|
| Shared family calendar | Yes | Yes |
| Works on your own phone | Yes | App yes, core experience = display |
| Physical wall display | No (app) | Yes |
| Tasks & groceries | Yes | Yes |
| Teams & clubs | Yes | No |
| Data stored in the EU | Yes | US |
| Price | Free to start, €19.99/yr | Hardware $ + Plus ± $39/yr |
The Skylight display is an eye-catcher: always visible in the kitchen, great for kids with chores and a central family point. If you love physical hardware, that's a genuine plus.
Planninn needs no $200+ screen and no ongoing Plus subscription — it runs on the phone everyone already has. You get calendar, tasks, groceries and team planning, with EU storage, for a flat €19.99 a year.
Want a physical family screen on the wall and the budget fits? Skylight is fun. Want the same overview without the hardware spend, on any device? Planninn makes more sense.
