How It Works

Copy your unique iCal feed URL from SchedulingKit settings. This typically takes under a minute and uses secure OAuth so your credentials are never shared directly.
Add to Apple Calendar
In Apple Calendar, choose File > New Calendar Subscription and paste the URL. Tailor the integration to your specific workflow — most users find the defaults work well out of the box.
Set Refresh Rate
Choose how often you want the calendar to update (every 5 minutes recommended). You control exactly which parts of your scheduling connect to Apple Calendar (iCal).
View Anywhere
Your bookings appear on Mac, iPhone, iPad, and Apple Watch automatically. Once active, the integration runs in the background with no ongoing maintenance required.

Frequently Asked Questions
Is this two-way sync?
The iCal feed is one-way (read-only). Bookings appear in Apple Calendar, but adding events in Apple Calendar won't block SchedulingKit availability. For two-way sync, connect Google or Outlook Calendar.
How often does it update?
You can set the refresh interval in Apple Calendar. We recommend every 5-15 minutes for timely updates.
Will it work on my Apple Watch?
Yes! If you have Apple Calendar on your Apple Watch, your bookings will appear there too.
