Announcing the New “Look Busy” Calendar Feature

Configure "Look Busy" in Calendar

What's New?

We are excited to introduce the "Look Busy" feature, designed to help you appear more in demand by hiding a percentage of your available slots on the booking widget. This strategic feature creates a sense of urgency for bookers, encouraging them to secure their appointment slots quickly.

How Does It Work?

Once you enable the "Look Busy" feature and set a percentage of slots to hide, that percentage is randomly hidden from the booking widget.

Example: If you have four time slots available in a day and choose to hide 50% of them, your bookers might see only two available slots.

As bookers schedule new appointments, the number of visible slots remains constant until the actual number of slots available matches the number being shown. At that point, the widget displays the actual available slots.

Supported Calendar Types

  • Event Calendar
  • Round Robin Calendar
  • Collective Calendar
  • Service Calendar

Please note that the "Look Busy" feature is not currently applicable for class bookings and service menus.

How to Use?

  1. Go to Calendar Settings and select the desired calendar.
  2. Navigate to the Availability tab.
  3. Locate the Look Busy option.
  4. Turn it on and enter the percentage of slots you want to hide.
  5. Click Save.
