Help

How can we help?

Most questions here are about a provider being awkward rather than about busywait. Either way, the guides below cover it — and a real person reads the support address.

Connecting Google Calendar

Personal Gmail and Workspace accounts, the scopes we ask for, and what to do if your admin restricts third-party apps.

Connecting Outlook

Microsoft 365 and Outlook.com, plus the consent prompt your tenant may show the first time.

Connecting iCloud

Apple requires an app-specific password rather than a normal sign-in. Two minutes, and it only has to be done once.

CalDAV and everything else

Fastmail, Proton, Nextcloud and self-hosted servers — what URL to use and how to check it before you save.

Sync direction and sharing more than busy

Choosing between Mirror and Push, and exactly what changes when you switch titles, guests or meeting-vs-focus on for a particular sync.

Booking links and rules

Buffers, minimum notice, daily caps and availability windows, and which calendar a confirmed booking lands in.

A slot did not appear

Almost always a rule doing its job. The usual suspects, in the order worth checking them.

Account, export and deletion

Getting your data out, disconnecting a calendar, and what deleting your account actually removes.

Billing and plans

Upgrading, downgrading, invoices, and what happens to your syncs if a payment fails.

Wondering exactly what data we hold? That is on What we store. For the formal commitments behind all this, see the Support Policy.
