How to book meetings in real time from the mobile app

With the Calendly mobile app, scheduling meetings becomes faster and more convenient, allowing you to book directly from your device in real-time.

For example, you can: 

  • Instantly schedule follow-ups: Book follow-up meetings on the spot, without navigating through the full booking flow, helping you keep momentum with clients.

  • Respond quickly to urgent requests: When you’re on the go and receive a last-minute meeting request, you can book it instantly without needing to return to your desktop.

  • Enhance client relationships: Lock in next steps, such as a demo or troubleshooting session, in real-time as you wrap up conversations—whether over the phone, in person, or virtually.

Before you begin

  • You will need the email of your invitee or they will need to be added as an existing contact
  • You will select the meeting time on behalf of the invitee and will not take into account their availability
