See your bookings in your phone calendar

Subscribe from Apple Calendar, Google Calendar or Outlook so your appointments sit alongside the rest of your day.

Your appointments can appear in the calendar app you already use, updating on their own. It is read-only: editing an event in your calendar app changes nothing in Booked.

Turn it on

1. Open Dashboard → Calendar and scroll to Calendar subscription.
2. Click Turn on.
3. Copy the address, or click Add to calendar if you are on the device you want it on.

Treat the address like a password

The link has to work without a login, because no calendar app can sign in. That means anyone who has the address can read your bookings, including client names, phone numbers and any notes on the appointment. Do not post it anywhere shared.

If you send it to the wrong person, or lose the phone it is on, click Get a new address. The old one stops working immediately — you do not have to ask anyone to forget it. Turn off goes further and leaves no working address at all.

What you will see

Each appointment shows as Client name — Service, with the staff member, phone, email, booking reference and any notes in the event details.

Cancelled and no-show appointments stay in the feed marked as cancelled, rather than vanishing — otherwise they would sit in your calendar forever, since your phone has no way of knowing they were called off.

The feed carries 30 days back and 180 days ahead. Older history stays in Booked; it is not synced, so a shop with years of appointments does not drag all of it onto a phone.

How often it updates

Your calendar app decides, not Booked. We ask for every 15 minutes, and Apple roughly honours it. Google can be much slower — sometimes only every several hours — which is a Google limitation with no setting on our side. If you need to know about a booking the moment it lands, rely on the notification, not the calendar.
