Connect and subscribe to calendars

Get your appointments on your phone and connect the calendars and booking tools your team already uses. Whatever is busy there, your assistant no longer offers – nothing is double-booked.

14 steps about 5 min

Subscribe to your calendar

  1. Open “Kalender” (calendar) in the menu on the left.

    The account menu with “Kalender” highlighted.
  2. Under “Kalender abonnieren” (subscribe to calendar), each person has their own row, plus one for the whole business. Tap “Abo-Link erstellen” (create subscription link) – or “Abo-Link” if there already is one.

    The “Kalender abonnieren” panel with one row per person; the “Abo-Link” button is highlighted.
  3. On an iPhone or iPad, tap “Auf diesem Gerät abonnieren” (subscribe on this device) – or scan the QR code with the camera. Then “Subscribe” and “Add”: your appointments appear in the Calendar app.

    The “Kalender abonnieren” window with the “iPhone & iPad” tab, the QR code and the “Auf diesem Gerät abonnieren” button, highlighted.
  4. Android: Google only allows subscriptions in a browser on a computer. Copy the subscription address, open calendar.google.com and choose “+” → “From URL” next to “Other calendars”. The calendar then also appears in the Google Calendar app on the phone.

    The “Android” tab with its three steps and the “Abo-Adresse” (subscription address) field with its copy button, highlighted.
  5. Outlook: in Outlook on the web, choose “Add calendar” → “Subscribe from web”, paste the subscription address and click “Import”. The steps for Outlook on Windows are in the “Outlook” tab.

    The “Outlook” tab with the steps for Outlook on the web and on Windows, highlighted.

Connect Google, Outlook or iCloud

  1. Both ways and always up to date: under “Kalender verbinden” (connect calendar), tap “Verbinden” (connect) on “Google Kalender” or “Outlook / Microsoft 365”.

    The “Google Kalender” and “Outlook / Microsoft 365” cards; the “Verbinden” button is highlighted.
  2. Under “Wessen Kalender ist das?” (whose calendar is this?), choose the person and tap “Weiter zu Google” or “Weiter zu Microsoft” (continue to …). Sign in there and allow calendar access – you then come back on your own.

    The “Google Kalender verbinden” window: the person selection and the “Weiter zu Google” button, highlighted.
  3. Done: the connection shows which calendars block times and which calendar new appointments go into. You change both under “Einstellungen” (settings).

    Mara Weiß's connected Google calendar with “Kalender blockiert Zeiten” (calendar blocks times) and “Termine kommen in …” (appointments go into …); the “Einstellungen” button is highlighted.
  4. iCloud: on account.apple.com, under “Sign-In and Security” → “App-Specific Passwords”, create a password – two-factor authentication must be switched on for this. Tap “Verbinden” on “Apple iCloud” and paste your Apple ID and that password.

    The “Apple iCloud verbinden” window with its three steps; the fields “Apple-ID” and “App-spezifisches Passwort” (app-specific password) are highlighted.

Other calendars via link

  1. Does your till or booking software give out its calendar as a link? Look there for “calendar subscription”, “iCal export” or “ICS link”. Tap “Verbinden” on “Kalender-Link (iCal)”, paste the link and choose the person. The assistant no longer offers the busy times from it; we don't enter anything in that calendar.

    The “Kalender per Link verbinden” window: the “Kalender-Link” field with a pasted link and the person selection, highlighted.

Calendly, Cal.com and Acuity

  1. Already using a booking tool? Under “Buchungstools” (booking tools), tap “Verbinden” on the provider, paste your access token or API key and choose whose bookings they are. The window tells you where to find it.

    The “Cal.com verbinden” window with its steps; the “API-Schlüssel” (API key) field and the person selection are highlighted.
  2. New, moved and cancelled bookings arrive right away and block the time for the assistant and the booking page. They are listed under “Übernommene Buchungen” (imported bookings) – and under “Termine” (appointments) too.

    The “Übernommene Buchungen” list with bookings from Calendly, highlighted.
  3. If a booking comes in for a time that is already taken, we still take it over and show it at the top under “Bitte prüfen” (please check) – nothing is dropped. Move or cancel one of the two appointments, then tap “Erledigt” (done).

    The “Bitte prüfen: eine Überschneidung” (please check: one overlap) box with the booking from Calendly and the “Erledigt” button, highlighted.

For developers

  1. Own software or another booking system? Under “Für Entwickler” (for developers), add an address with “Empfänger hinzufügen” (add recipient): we send booked, changed and cancelled appointments there – signed. Bookings come in through “Andere Systeme (Webhook)” (other systems), for example from Shore or Treatwell via Zapier, Make or n8n.

    The “Änderungen an Ihr System senden” (send changes to your system) panel with the “Empfänger hinzufügen” button, highlighted.
