TidyCal is off to a good start

With TidyCal being such a new app I'm sure there will be updates over the next several months to address most concerns that early adopters have. The app is a great value for the cost of two months on Calendly, you get most of the features that are needed to let clients schedule meetings. The roadmap published by TidyCal shows just about all their wishlist features crossed out so I'm hoping there will be more updates in the near future.

The things I love about TidyCal:
❤️ The UI is super easy to learn and everything works exactly like I would expect it to
❤️ It includes unlimited booking types without an upsell
❤️ It can read MULTIPLE calendars tied to a single Google calendar. I have several shared with me and not having to add the events to my personal calendar makes TidyCal worth it alone!

As for the things I'm hoping they update:
🛠 There is no master availability calendar. Every event has its own availability, which is a PIA when I need to change something.
🛠 There is no cutoff for how far out someone can schedule. I prefer to only allow meetings to be scheduled out 7 days so the client doesn't forget.
🛠 There is no option to send an automated text reminder
🛠 The app needs to allow for the schedule to select multiple ways to connect for the meeting (phone vs zoom)
🛠 I'd like to see more options to do screening questions in the booking.

Overall, the tool is off to a great start. None of the missing features are critical to me, so I've fully converted to TidyCal. If you need one of those features that's missing, I'd suggesting holding off on switching until they get them built out.

Thanks SO much for your detailed review, scott683! Lots of great feedback here as we continue to improve our app... we're still only a few months old!

For this one: "There is no cutoff for how far out someone can schedule. I prefer to only allow meetings to be scheduled out 7 days so the client doesn't forget."

We actually do have this threshold option in your Profile: https://tidycal.com/profile. Scroll to the bottom, and you'll see it. 🔥
