If you have a lot of availability but want to appear busier or more in-demand, hide some appointment slots with the new
Appear Busy
setting. When you enable
Appear Busy
, you'll still see your entire availability in the Calendar panel, but clients booking online will only see
some
of your time slots for each day.
CleanShot 2026-01-12 at 10
You set the percentage of each day's slots that are hidden from clients. As the available slots are booked, they're hidden (and are counted as hidden). The number of slots displayed to clients will remain the same until your calendar starts to run out of slots. At that point, only the remaining open slots can be displayed.
Keep in mind that while the number of slots displayed will remain the same each day, different appointment time slots might appear on different days. For example, if you have four available appointment times and want 50% of your availability hidden, a client might see slots available at 9:00 AM and 10:00 AM one day, but 9:00 AM and 11:00 AM another day.
Setting it up
You can set up this new setting within an availability:
CleanShot 2026-01-12 at 10
  1. Click for an availability that you want to modify.
  2. Scroll down to "Appear Busy".
  3. Set it to one of the available values.
As an example, here's how your availability would display on a day with 10 time slots, when 50% of availability is hidden:

You can now offer private bookings with multiple attendees without sharing the time with anyone else. Private Appointment Settings let you keep group bookings exclusive, even when capacity isn’t fully used.
Why It Matters
Many experiences are meant to be private. Whether it’s tastings, tours, or VIP sessions, you may charge per person but still want the entire timeslot reserved for one party. Before, you'd have to set variants for each attendee count and then keep the calendar assigned to all variants. Now you can do this with a one-check setting, no variant workarounds needed. 🙌
What You Can Do
👥 Private Group Bookings: Allow multiple attendees per booking while keeping the timeslot exclusive to one party.
🚫 Auto-Block Timeslots: As soon as one booking is made, the timeslot disappears — even if capacity remains.
💰 Per-Person Pricing: Charge by quantity while maintaining a private experience.
🎟️ Flexible Guest Management: Easily support discounts or pricing based on guest count without using variants.
How It Works
1️⃣ Go to Edit Event, Availability
2️⃣ Enable Private Appointment Settings.
3️⃣ Set your maximum guests per booking — and you’re done! 🎯

Available to all to create private experiences while keeping booking flexible and simple. Perfect for tours, tastings, and premium group events. ✨
Our December release focuses on giving you more control over bookings, clearer communication with customers, and a smoother day-to-day experience across scheduling, reporting, and integrations.
✨ New Features
Private Appointments (1-on-1 Privacy)
You can now hide remaining availability in a time slot as soon as the first customer books. This is ideal for private or one-on-one sessions where you want to prevent additional customers from seeing or booking the same time, even if the slot is not technically full.
CleanShot 2026-01-02 at 23
