Turn on client reminders

Go to Settings → Notifications and enable “Text clients a reminder before their appointment”. Reminders are sent from your Scheduley number automatically.

Pick the timing

Choose how far in advance the reminder goes out. An hour before works well for most businesses; day-before suits longer appointments.

Easy for clients to act on

Reminder texts include the service, day, and time. If plans changed, clients can text back to reschedule or cancel; the AI handles it and your calendar updates on its own, often freeing the slot in time to fill it.

Booking confirmations, too

Clients also get a confirmation text the moment they book. The confirmation and reminder each have their own on/off switch under Agent → SMS Auto-Replies, where you can also see the exact message each one sends and adjust the reminder timing.

Alerts for you

The same Notifications page holds your own alerts: team members get texted when a booking lands on their schedule, and “Text me the moment a call sounds urgent” pings you instantly when your agent flags an emergency mid-call. The call also gets a red Urgent badge in your calls inbox either way.

Morning briefings

Each morning your Concierge posts a short good-morning note in its inbox thread: today’s schedule, yesterday’s bookings and calls, and who’s waiting on the waitlist. It stays in the app (an unread dot on the Concierge row and a note in your notification bell, never a text), and it’s toggled in the Notifications panel at the top of the Concierge window, not here. The full map of every alert Scheduley sends you is in Notifications: how Scheduley keeps you in the loop.
