Never Miss an Appointment: Phone Calendar Sync for Service Businesses

Here's a scenario that happens in service businesses everywhere:

A client books a 2pm appointment through your Whizzly storefront on Tuesday. You're out running errands or prepping tools, and you need to see your schedule right on your phone without logging into your store dashboard.

The Phone Calendar Sync powerup connects your Whizzly schedule directly to your phone.


How Calendar Sync Works

When you activate Phone Calendar Sync, Whizzly generates a unique, private calendar subscription link (iCal / Webcal feed).

You subscribe to this feed once on your iPhone (Apple Calendar), Android phone (Google Calendar), or computer (Microsoft Outlook). From that point on:

  • Automatic Updates: When a client books an appointment on your storefront, the booking lands right on your calendar.
  • Complete Client Context: Each calendar event includes the client's name, phone number, booked service, and any notes they provided at checkout.
  • Direct WhatsApp Link: Tap the client's number right from your calendar event to confirm details or say hello.
  • Buffer Times: Configurable clean-up and travel buffers (10, 15, or 30 minutes) ensure you're never rushed between clients.

Supported Calendars

  • Google Calendar: Add by URL in Google Calendar Web or mobile app
  • Apple Calendar: 1-Tap subscribe on iPhone, iPad, and Mac
  • Outlook / Microsoft 365: Subscribe via Outlook Web or desktop

Works natively on any smartphone or tablet with zero separate apps to install.


Activation

Dashboard → Powerups → Phone Calendar Sync. Copy your secure feed URL and subscribe in under 30 seconds.

Available as a modular add-on on Starter, included free in Pro.
