Calendly Product Update – Sept 2024
You’re Invited: Calendly’s Better Meetings Virtual Event
Reserve your spot for our Better Meetings Virtual Event Oct. 2 to learn how meeting experts, customers, partners, and even Calendly employees aim to host meetings people actually love to attend.
Join experts from Harvard Business Review, Zapier, Atlassian’s Loom, Typeform, and more to uncover insights into the future of work, practical tips for every stage of your meetings, and learn how Calendly helps leaders collaborate live with others. And our C-level executives will even give you a sneak peek into what’s coming next for our product line.
Most of us love what we get out of a meeting more than the meeting itself: acceptance to a school, our first job, that home loan, the customer deal that took months. Our hope is, by sharing tips and tools, your meetings will perform better so that you can achieve those ultimate goals.
Can’t attend? Register anyway, and we’ll send you the recording.

Mobile App Updates: View Contacts, Mark No-Shows, and More
Over the past few months, we’ve made some major updates to our Mobile App (available free on iOS and Android). If you haven’t downloaded or revisited, please do and let us know what you think like Philip of Zapier did on X:
Talking with you, we’ve learned that sharing your scheduling links and checking your schedule remain top priorities while you’re away from your desk.
Now, you can do that and much more with our mobile-app updates:
Quickly grab a link or QR code to share availability wherever you are
Book meetings in real time, getting an event on the calendar then and there
View & manage your schedule, including rescheduling and marking no-shows
Get alerts on new bookings and meeting changes from our in-app notification center
Update your availability so you only get booked when it works well for you
See contacts & meeting history, with easy access to key context before a call
Join meetings in one click, directly from the app
If that sounds like a lot, it’s because it is. It’s more functionality in your pocket so you can stay flexible and productive wherever your day takes you — the airport, a rideshare, or a conference.

Browser Extension Updates
Based on your feedback, we recently made a couple of changes to our Web Browser Extension. While the ability to offer specific time slots in email was helpful for many, you also had some requests:
I’m happy to share that these updates have arrived. From any event type, click the envelope icon to offer time slots in your emails to customize your date range, time zone, and specific selections. This feature gives your invitee the best scheduling experience – saving them time and clicks when they book with you – and it gives you greater control over your schedule.
Once you lock in your meeting, the work doesn’t stop there. We’ve also updated your past meetings in the Extension sidebar (and in Google Calendar, if you use our Extension integration). Past meetings now come equipped with a “Follow-up actions” button that lets you do things such as send a follow-up email, book the next meeting, or mark someone as a no-show.
From outreach to follow-up, our Extension is the quickest way to Calendly from Chrome, Edge, Firefox, and the Outlook desktop app.
