A Smarter Scheduler, Designed for Real Workflows

Scheduling is central to running a successful service business—but it shouldn’t require constant workarounds or manual effort. Whether you're checking your calendar, managing a front desk, or overseeing multiple locations, your team needs tools that adapt to the way they work.

MyTime’s Scheduler is built for flexibility, speed, and accuracy at scale. These latest enhancements go even further—eliminating friction, improving visibility, and making it easier to manage appointments across any role or environment.

Backed by a Complete Platform

Scheduling isn’t just a task—it’s where staff, services, resources, and client expectations intersect.

That’s why MyTime’s Scheduler is fully integrated with the rest of our comprehensive franchise management platform, connecting appointment logic to your client management, staffing, marketing, and point of sale. These latest updates build on that connected foundation, targeting high-impact areas where speed, clarity, and adaptability matter most.

Navigate the Calendar with Confidence

Scheduling doesn’t look the same for every role or location. Whether your team needs to review availability, manage capacity, or coordinate shared spaces, MyTime’s flexible calendar views help them see what matters and take action faster.

What’s New:

  • Agenda View on Mobile

    Staff using the iOS Scheduler app can now view their day in a scrollable, mobile-optimized format that’s easier to navigate and faster to load—ideal for on-the-go teams or high-volume appointment days.

    • Calendar Resource View

      A new layout that visualizes real-time availability of key resources like rooms, equipment, or tools alongside staff calendars. Designed to eliminate resource bottlenecks and reduce manual coordination.

  • Book Faster. Book Smarter.

    Booking should be fast, intuitive, and accurate—especially when your business handles hundreds of appointments each week. These updates reduce unnecessary steps, improve default behaviors, and help teams catch errors before they happen.

    What’s New:

    • Improved Default Start Time

      When booking, the Scheduler now defaults to the next available time based on your account settings—avoiding backdated errors and saving clicks.

  • Conflicting Appointment Warning

    During scheduling, MyTime automatically detects and highlights conflicts in real time—displaying inline messages if a staff member, client, or resource is already booked during the selected time. This prevents errors before they happen and keeps your team moving without second-guessing availability.

  • Search by Pet Name

    Designed for pet care businesses, this feature allows staff to quickly locate appointments using a pet’s name—ideal for high-volume grooming or boarding operations where pets are the primary identifier.

Keep Complex Appointments Seamless

Group visits—whether for families or multi-pet households—can get complicated. MyTime makes them easier to manage, even when adjustments are needed on the fly.

What’s New:

  • Preserved Changes Between Appointment Tabs

    When managing grouped appointments—such as multi-pet or family bookings—each client or pet has their own tab within the appointment window. Now, any changes you make are preserved as you switch between tabs. This eliminates repetitive edits, prevents data loss, and helps your team stay focused on providing a smooth experience for every member of the group.
