Available

Available turns the calendars already on your iPhone or iPad into a list of the dates you are free, ready to send to anyone who asks when you can do something. It reads the calendars you choose, works out which days are clear, and writes the list the way a person would write it: "All except 4, 9, 15-17" rather than a wall of dates. YOUR DATES, READY TO SEND • As text for an email or a message, as a PDF, as a picture for a group chat, or as a link. • As a list or as a calendar. The PDF, the picture and the link can show either. • The PDF can carry your own letterhead: type your name and details, or use your own Word document with {INSERT DATES} in it. ONE DATE THAT SUITS YOU BOTH • Ask someone else for their free dates, from the app or from within Messages. They answer in one tap, from their own calendar, and only the dates come back. • They choose how much of what you asked for to send. Dates stop being shown a week after they are sent, because a calendar moves. • Their answer is sealed to you, and only your own devices can open it. Nobody the message passes through can read it, and there is no server to hold it. • Your list becomes the dates you are both free. Their dates are kept on your device until you clear them, and for a month at most. • They do not need to have bought the app to answer you. THE WAY YOU WORK • Read as many calendars as you keep, from any account on your device: iCloud, Exchange, Outlook, Google. • Send the dates you are free, spelled out, or as "All except" where that reads shorter, month by month. • Whole days, or half days when only a morning or an afternoon is free. • Tap a day to see what is in it, then tap it again to make it the opposite of what your calendar says. • Tell an entry to leave you free, or to cost you the day, every time it comes round. • Words such as "tentative" can be told to leave the day open. WHEREVER YOU ARE • Send without leaving Messages: the Available drawer puts your dates straight into the message you are writing. • Siri and Shortcuts: ask for your dates, or have a shortcut email them every Monday to whoever needs them. • Set it up once. Your letterhead and rules follow you to your iPad and Mac through your own iCloud. PRIVATE BY DESIGN Your calendar never leaves your devices. There is no account and no server. Your settings are kept on your devices and in your own iCloud, and you can turn that off. Free for a fortnight. After that, one payment or a month at a time, whichever suits. Reading your dates and changing them stays free, and answering someone else's request for dates is always free.
