Things you love straight to your calendar. Wanna know... Check Calio! Art exhibitions, talks, or sports fixtures with Calio it's easy to get events you love straight to your calendar app!
Hello @latifbaluch1@andrey88@mmichellejh@ramy_alkadhi@narayan07feb please tell us more about this project. I'd like to know what you think are the most exciting features. I'm so stuck in my ways with Google Calendar but open to considering alternatives if I feel they add value.
Hey @abadesi
We are very design focused, trying to make a calendar more visually appealing. The big difference with Calio however, is the social/personal element.
Connect with friends/family - All users have a profile, allowing you to easily connect with others, and share events. (We feel that Google email invites are so corporate!)
Engaging events - Our event pages are much more engaging and interactive. You can add your own picture, get friends to vote for the venue etc.
Chats - Every event has its own individual chat for attendees (you don't need a new Whatsapp group every time!)
Scheduling - We also have a scheduling feature, so you can send multiple dates/times to the group.
Your friends don't need the app - You don't need to force people on to the app! You can send them a link and they can respond online.
As @ramy_alkadhi just mentioned we are also launching two new features in the coming months.
Cal Sync - So we'll sync with Google, Outlook etc and Facebook
Brand Accounts - You can follow your favourite brands/DJS etc to see upcoming events, and buy tickets. Straight to your calendar!
Please check it out if you get a chance and we'd love to get your feedback :)
Thanks,
Co-founders,
Latif & Ramy
@thatakke Thanks so much. Our brand approach is to make events more personal, so they can live within your own personal calendar, which you can then share with friends. We will start rolling this out at the end of the quarter, so stay tuned! Any other feedback is much appreciated :)
I started using it when we wanted to plan a re-union with my ex-colleagues. We were trying to use a WhatsApp group which turned out as a pain in the neck. Our main issues on W'app group were:
1. Not everyone spoke up / told what place and time they preferred
2. Few spoke a LOT
3. It was difficult to get all suggestions organised (We were 16 of us trying to organise a meetup).
Someone found Calio and created an event with the top suggestions included, we all voted and actually ended up meeting. We use it regularly since.
Pros:
let's you suggest options, let's people choose / vote for time
Cons:
Not everyone is on the app yet - but that can be easily solved I guess
