Offdays works best when you use it as a planning layer, not just a date checker, because the real value comes from seeing how leave allowance, public holidays, and possible breaks fit together.
Key facts
- Start with the dates that are fixed before you book anything else
- Compare several break patterns rather than committing to the first option
- Keep some allowance unassigned so the plan can adjust later
How to set up your year
Begin by marking the public holidays and the personal commitments you already know about. Once those are visible, you can see where a small number of leave days creates a longer break.
Why Offdays is useful
The app makes it easier to compare scenarios quickly. That matters because the best plan is usually not obvious from one date alone, especially when several weekends and substitute holidays are close together.
How to plan around it
Use Offdays to map the strongest longer-break windows first, then protect some flexibility for trips, family plans, or workload changes later in the year.
