The only difference between ordinary and extraordinary is just that little "extra".

Added the ability to buffer meeting scheduling

I added the ability to create a buffer for when someone scheduling can create a meeting. For example, only allow users to schedule meetings at least 3 days in advance.

Fixed an issue when deleting events via the confirmation email

Fixed meeting confirmation emails

When confirming a meeting, the emails sent out weren't taking into consideration differing timezones between requester and requestee. So now, the requester receives an email with their time/timezone, and same for the person who's having a meeting scheduled with them.

Fixed a bug that wasn't allowing users to reschedule meetings

A small bug wasn't allowing meetings to be rescheduled. Instead, a new meeting was being created altogether, and the old meeting was staying on Google calendar.

Created a new logo for Schedulr

New logo, who dis?

I wanted something cleaner and more simplistic, so I whipped something up in Canva. What do you think?

Added a demo to the home page

Added a fully-functional demo to the Schedulr homepage, so visitors can immediately try it and see how Schedulr works.

Added 12/24 hour time format option

Added the ability to choose your preferred time format to Schedulr, either 12-hour or 24-hour. Makes it easier for those who use the Non-US (or US military) time formats

Added timezone support to Schedulr

Managing time zones is HARD. Don’t let anyone tell you it isn’t 😂. Added timezone support, which automatically detects your timezone or lets you manually set it.

Allow users to manually block off unavailable time

This is a handy feature that allows you to manually set time that you aren't available, on a day-by-day basis. Go to the Availability page and either select one or more available times, or click and drag in the Day view of the calendar, to block off that time as unavailable.

Added ability to set available times

I added the ability for users to set their available times in Schedulr. Set them from the settings page, and others will only be able to schedule between those hours.

Updated privacy policy and terms & conditions

Updated the privacy policy and T&C for Schedulr. Also added a usage policy for Zoom, since it’s required by them to add Zoom functionality.

Added Zoom functionality

Users can now create a Zoom meeting and add it to the invite, with one click. I added the ability to connect to zoom, create a meeting, and paste the zoom link to the meeting.

Added ability for visitors to overlay their own calendars

So this is a feature I've been working on for a couple days. To make scheduling meetings more of a two-way street, I've added the ability for a user to overlay their own calendar over the available times on the calendar they're looking at. This doesn't require signing up for Schedulr to do. That way the process of scheduling meetings around everyone's free time is that much easier.

Completed Schedule/Day view

So I completed the feature that allows the user to schedule via day view. This is part of the major feature to allow users to overlay their own calendars when scheduling.

Added Day Schedule view to calendars

So this is 1/2 of a major feature for Schedulr: adding a schedule calendar view. That way people who come to your calendar can see your availability visually, and select a time that way. This will be important when I eventually add the "Overlay your calendar" feature.

Fixed responsiveness of mobile/desktop layouts

The layouts for mobile were an absolute mess. So I redid them from the ground up. Using Tailwind, my limited CSS knowledge, and a whole lot of patience. But it looks much better now.

Added Google images to profile

A small change. When you login with Google, it automatically imports your Google image into your profile.

Fixed signup via pricing tier on home page

A fix that was suggested to me by a user: When choosing a pricing tier on the home page, the natural flow would take the user to signup, then back to the pricing page to choose a plan. Now, when the user chooses a pricing tier, they're taken to the sign up page and automatically subscribed to the plan they chose.

Added Google Sign in

Since Schedulr primarily uses Google Calendar, it only makes sense that people can sign up and login using Google. So I went ahead and added Google signup/login functionality

Added ability to email available times to others

I just completed a major feature that I've been working on for a few days now: The ability to email anyone a personalized link to your calendar, as well as available times that you select. This is kind of the inverse to sending someone your calendar link and having them go check out what times you're available. It takes some of the work out of their end. Next I want to add the ability for them to overlay their own calendar.

Fixed script to generate available times

This is something I've been meaning to go to for a while. Basically the original code that looks at your calendar and generates availability was including times in the past, for the current day. For example generating times starting at 8am, even though it's 1pm. Fixed that to only include times after right now.

Started adding zoom integration to Schedulr

This one was actually born of a personal need. I’d scheduled a meeting with another maker, and had to manually go create a zoom meeting, and email the link to him. Super annoying. So I started adding zoom integration. With one click it will create a zoom meeting and automatically attach it to your Schedulr meeting.

Started adding functionality to email personalized links

So this is major functionality for Schedulr. I started the process of adding the ability to email people personalized links to schedule time.

So instead of sending them to https://getschedulr.com/ricky to see what times I’m available, directly from the app I can send them and email that contains 2 things:

1.) a bunch of times that I’ve preselected for them to choose from, and
2.) a link tailored to them such as https://getschedulr.com/sergio/ricky/quick-chat that will take them to my calendar with all of my availability.

I’d say it’s about 80% functional.

More details soon!

Invite multiple people to your meetings

Continuing what I started last night, I added the ability to invite multiple people (via email) to your schedule meetings. Invitees will also get an email to the event, and added to the event in Google Calendar

Added functionality to reschedule meetings

Killed 2 birds with one stone today and also added functionality to reschedule meetings. Surprisingly, this was like 10x harder than deleting events. But I got it done 😁.

Now users can reschedule their meetings directly from the link in the confirmation email.
