Bookify v1.2 product update has arrived with the calendar integration features our users have been asking for. Connect your booking system directly with Google and Outlook calendars and give customers easier ways to manage their appointments.
Here’s what you need to know about this practical product update release to your scheduling toolkit.
What’s New in Bookify v1.2 Release Notes?
This latest version introduces three game-changing features:
- Google Calendar Integration – Sync appointments automatically between Bookify and Google Calendar
- Outlook Calendar Integration – Connect seamlessly with Microsoft’s calendar ecosystem
Let’s explore how these new capabilities transform your scheduling workflow.
Google Calendar Integration: Avoid Double Booking
The disconnect between your online booking system and personal calendar is now a thing of the past. With Bookify’s new Google Calendar integration, every appointment booked through your system can automatically appear in your staff’s Google Calendar.
For Admins:
Setting up Google Calendar integration is straightforward:
- Configure your Google Cloud Console credentials
- Enable the Google Calendar API
- Add integration settings in your Bookify admin dashboard
- Choose which appointment details to sync
For Staff Members:
Staff can connect their Google Calendar directly:
- Access their profile in the staff dashboard
- Click “Sign in with Google”
- Authenticate their Google account
- Appointments now sync automatically
For Customers:
Customers gain a valuable convenience feature:
- After booking, they can click “Add to Calendar(s)”
- Select Google Calendar
- Authenticate with their account
- The appointment appears in their personal calendar
Outlook Calendar Integration: Microsoft-Friendly Scheduling
Not everyone uses Google’s ecosystem. That’s why we’ve added Outlook Calendar integration to ensure Microsoft users have the same seamless scheduling experience.
For Admins:
The setup process involves:
- Configuring credentials in Azure Portal
- Registering your application
- Setting integration options in Bookify
- Selecting which appointment data to sync
For Staff and Customers:
Just like with Google Calendar integration, both staff and customers can:
- Connect their Outlook accounts
- See appointments appear automatically
- View complete appointment details in their calendar
Why This Product Update Matters
Calendar integration addresses one of the biggest pain points in appointment scheduling, i.e., keeping different systems in sync. Now, whether your team uses Google or Microsoft products, Bookify ensures everyone stays on the same page.
The detailed sync options let you control exactly what information transfers between systems, respecting privacy while providing necessary context for appointments.
