Appointments

Scheduling and calendar management

How does the appointment calendar work?

The calendar shows all your scheduled appointments in a clear visual layout. You can view appointments by day, week, or month. Tap on any date to see the details or schedule a new appointment.

How do I schedule an appointment?

Tap the + button on the appointments page. Select a customer, choose a date and time, set the type of appointment (consultation, beauty party, follow-up), and add any notes. You can also set reminders to notify you before the appointment.

What are beauty parties?

Beauty parties are group events where you showcase your products to multiple potential customers. The app lets you schedule beauty parties, track attendees, and create orders for each participant directly from the event. You can also capture consultant signatures for party-related orders.

How do I quickly log a walk-in customer reminder?

Long-press the Calendar tab at the bottom of the screen to open the Walk-In Reminder sheet. Enter the customer's name, optionally add a phone number and note, then select a follow-up date using quick presets (today, tomorrow, 3 days, next week, or custom). The app creates both a customer record and a follow-up reminder in one step.

How do I manage time slots for customer bookings?

Time Slots let you define your availability for customer appointments. Navigate to a customer profile and open the Time Slots tab, or access them from the appointments section.

You can create slots manually by choosing a date, time, and optionally assigning a customer. The AI-powered Time Slot Wizard can also generate optimized slots based on your schedule and customer preferences.

Each slot shows its status (scheduled, completed, or cancelled) and whether it is targeted to a specific customer or open for anyone.

How do guest reviews work for beauty parties?

After a beauty party, you can collect feedback from attendees using Guest Reviews. From the appointment detail screen, share a review link that guests can open in their browser — no app download required.

Each guest can rate the party (1–5 stars), indicate whether they would attend again, say how likely they are to recommend, and leave open feedback. Reviews appear on the appointment detail screen as a summary card showing the average rating, review count, and attend-again percentage.

Tap the card to expand individual reviews with each guest's name, rating, and responses.

What happens when I complete an appointment?

When you mark a party appointment as completed, a quick-action sheet appears with options to:

  • Rate This Party — Navigate to the post-party summary where you can record attendees, sales, new bookings, and a success rating
  • Share Guest Review Link — Generate and share a link for attendees to submit their feedback
  • Maybe Later — Dismiss the prompt and return to it later from the appointment detail screen

This helps you capture important party outcomes while the details are still fresh.

How do I block an entire day on my calendar?

All-day time blockers let you mark full days as unavailable — useful for holidays, personal days, or multi-day events.

When creating an appointment, select Time Blocker as the type and toggle the All Day switch. The blocker spans the full day and appears as a full-width block on your calendar.

All-day blockers also support recurrence, so you can set up repeating blocks (for example, every Monday) to reflect your regular unavailable days.

How does external calendar integration work?

External calendar integration works in two directions:

  • Sync to device — Your app appointments are automatically mirrored to a dedicated calendar on your device. Creating, updating, or deleting an appointment updates the native calendar event.
  • Read from device — The app reads events from your selected external calendars (Google, iCloud, Outlook, etc.) and displays them as busy slots on your appointment calendar. Conflict detection warns you if a new appointment overlaps with an external event.

To set up, grant calendar permission when prompted. Then select which external calendars to monitor in your calendar settings.

How do I run Live Party Tracking during a party?

Open a scheduled party appointment and tap Start Live Tracking. Tracking begins automatically and a running duration timer appears at the top so you can see how long the party has lasted.

While the party is happening you can:

  • Check in guests as they arrive
  • Log product demos and tag each guest reaction (loved, interested, neutral, or not interested)
  • Capture party photos — take them with the camera or pick from your gallery, up to 10
  • Jot quick notes

Everything saves as you go. When the party ends, tap End Party to move on to the Party Summary.

What is the post-party summary and digest?

After you tap End Party (or mark a party completed), the Party Summary screen lets you record the sales made, number of new bookings, a success rating from 1 to 5 stars, and any follow-up actions. Saving marks the appointment as completed.

You can then open the AI Party Digest and tap Generate AI Digest. The digest turns your party data into a written summary with highlights, improvement ideas, product insights, and suggested follow-ups.

Each digest has a privacy level, and you can Share to Team to post it to your network when the privacy level allows it.
