## What is Coplot?

Coplot is a shared calendar for any group of people who plan together — couples, families, roommates, friend groups, small teams. Think of it like a group chat, but for your calendar.

The signature feature is conflict-aware scheduling: when you go to add an event, Coplot shows you what's already on the day before you commit. If you try to book over an existing event from anyone else in the calendar, you get a heads-up — and they get a notification when you go ahead anyway. No more "wait, weren't you taking the kids to soccer?" texts at 4pm.

What's inside

  • Day, Week, and Month views — readable, fast, and built for the way real groups actually plan
  • Tap any event to see who added it, when, where, and any notes — read-only if it isn't yours
  • Conflict alerts — when someone books over your time, you'll know
  • Reminders — choose 5 min, 15 min, 30 min, 1 hour, or 1 day before; a "starting now" alert always fires too
  • Color-coded events — 10 calm colors, no neon
  • All-day events for birthdays, anniversaries, and travel days
  • Recurring events — daily, weekly, monthly, yearly, until any date
  • Event attendees — tag specific people on an event so only they get reminded
  • Multiple calendars per account — one for your family, one for your roommates, one for your friend group, all in one app
  • Invite codes — create a calendar, share a 6-character code, anyone you invite joins in seconds
  • Real-time sync — events appear on every device within a second
  • Local-only mode — sign-in is opt-in. Don't want a sync account? Don't make one.
  • Light + Dark — full first-class dark mode
  • iOS-native — built with SwiftUI for the way iPhones are supposed to feel

Designed for restraint

Coplot doesn't bury you in features you'll never use. There are no AI assistants, no calendar grids that pretend to be spreadsheets, no event marketplaces, no LinkedIn integration. Just a clear shared calendar, an invite code, and a notification when something doesn't fit.

Privacy by default

We collect the minimum we need to make Coplot work: your email (for sign-in), your display name (so the rest of the group sees who added what), and the events you choose to put in. We don't sell data. We don't run ads. We don't run analytics SDKs. We don't read your real-world location — the "location" field is just text you type. Sign-in is via a one-time code (no passwords). Want to use Coplot fully offline? Skip the sign-in entirely.

Free during beta

Coplot is currently free for everyone. Future paid features may exist; the calendar core will always be free.

Built for the people you actually share life with

Coplot was made because every other "shared calendar" we tried was either built for corporations (and looked it) or capped at exactly two people. Real groups — families, partners, housemates, friend circles — needed something simpler.

## Frequently asked questions about Coplot

### How does Coplot handle scheduling conflicts?

Coplot features conflict-aware scheduling. When adding an event, it shows existing events on that day. If you attempt to schedule over someone else's event, you'll receive a heads-up, and they will be notified if you proceed.

### Can I use Coplot offline?

Yes, Coplot offers a local-only mode. You can skip the sign-in process entirely and use the app fully offline without creating a sync account.

### How are events organized in Coplot?

Events can be color-coded for easier identification. You can also set up recurring events on daily, weekly, monthly, or yearly bases, with options to set an end date.

### What kind of reminders does Coplot offer?

Coplot provides flexible reminder options, including 5 min, 15 min, 30 min, 1 hour, or 1 day before the event. An additional 'starting now' alert is always sent.

### How do I invite others to a Coplot calendar?

You can create a calendar and share a unique 6-character invite code. Anyone you invite can join the calendar in seconds using this code.

### Does Coplot have ads?

No, Coplot does not run advertisements. The developers have stated they do not run ads, and the app is currently free during its beta phase.

### What devices does Coplot support?

Coplot is currently supported on iPhones. It is built with SwiftUI for a native iOS experience.

### How often is Coplot updated?

The latest version of Coplot is 1.0.3, last updated on June 24, 2026. This indicates a relatively frequent update schedule for the application.

## Version history (last 3 releases)

### 1.0.3 — 2026-06-24

Live updates — events your group adds now appear instantly, with a tap-to-open banner. No more closing and reopening to see changes.

Multi-day events — schedule trips and anything that spans several days.

Multiple reminders — set as many as you like per event: a week before, a day before, 30 minutes before, or a custom time.

My Calendar — everyone now has a personal calendar. Choose which calendars you see, and pick which calendars each event appears on. You can also share an event as a simple "Busy" block to keep the details private.

Smarter colors — events you share with someone show a blended color, so it's clear who's involved at a glance.

Tap a notification to jump straight to the event.

New in-app tutorial — replay it anytime from Settings.

Fixes — correct "Added by" names, and the feedback form no longer closes if you swipe by accident.

A big v1.0.2 update covering everything we shipped during beta:

• Multiple calendars per account — one for family, one for roommates, all in one app
• Event attendees — tag specific people on an event so only they get reminded
• Recurring events — daily, weekly, monthly, yearly
• Merged overlay view — see every calendar you're in on one grid, toggle visibility per-calendar
• Event search — find anything by title, location, or notes
• Home screen widgets — today + tomorrow's events at a glance
• Per-member colors — every person in a calendar gets their own color
• Private events — hide details from non-attendees; conflicts still get caught
