Square appointment
The best scheduling app
Dated, not keeping up with what businesses need
I’ve been a Square user since I started my business back in 2019 and it was great, it ticks all my boxes except for one very specific, very important function that every other booking software seems to have no problem doing?
It’s 2026. Why is there no cluster booking/minimize gaps feature? If you check out the forums it’s something that has been frequently asked for for YEARS. And yet there’s been zero action, zero effort to make it happen. Instead we get directed to the ‘fake it’ filter, which is not the same. I want to make it so clients are only booking spots that are magnetized to other spots so that I don’t end up with random gaps that I then have to reach out to clients to move around. Because that’s inefficient. I don’t like wasting my time with that, and my clients don’t like me having to correct their bookings every time. I’ve been patient, but I’m done waiting and will be moving to a platform that can do that, since Square doesn’t seem to care about the appointment based service providers using their products.

Almost Ideal
We run a wellness centre with massage, yoga and meditation classes, retail and saunas. Fantastic for the retail side, appointment bookings is a nice flow even for saunas. Contracts work well for intake forms. Be good if the forms could populate info to the clients main profile like cliniko and mind body apps. Ties in well with the Square pos too. The big downfall is forced payments for online classes bookings and unable to discount classes at checkout for walkins. Also cant take payments for classes on square counter register. We have 15 staff so unfortunately we may have to leave square appointments due to the classes not being under our full control. Its a shame.

Constant refreshing!!
Not sure what’s going on. with the square. But it is blogging down my computer and it’s constantly refreshing! I could be in the middle of making an appointment for a patient or checking them out and it wants to refresh, so I have to start everything all over!
This has been happening for the past couple of months, and it’s just getting ridiculous!
