New Personal Trainer Scheduling Software Features

FitSW has just released new personal trainer scheduling software at https://www.fitsw.com/scheduler.  This scheduler / calendar adds several new features over the existing scheduler.  Improvements include:

  • Clients can now request appointment times on a Trainer’s calendar and the trainer can accept or decline.
    • Trainers can block off Personal / Unavailable times to prevent clients from requesting times that don’t work
    • Clients can see a Trainers schedule but they will only see their appointments with a trainer.  All other times (Personal or other appointments) just show as Unavailable.
    • Clients can see open times and request an appointment at the click of a button.  Trainers are notified via on their calendar and via email of the request.
    • Trainers can Accept or Decline an appointment request.  Clients will be notified on their own schedule and via email.
  • Day, Week and Month views are all available.
  • New repeating appointment options are now available.

How To Use the New Personal Trainer Scheduler

  1. Access the new scheduler at https://www.fitsw.com/scheduler.
  2. To create an appointment or event double click on the area of the calendar where that appointment should be (on a desktop computer you can also use click and drag.)
  3. Optional: Enter in your unavailable times (utilize the Repeat Event function to make this easier).
  4. Create any appointments you would like for you to have with specific clients.
  5. Let your clients know that they can access their version of the scheduler at the same address with their login: https://www.fitsw.com/scheduler.  They will see any appointments that you have created with them.
  6. If you want them to schedule appointments with you, tell them to find open times on your schedule and double click to create a request.  You will receive an email notification of an appointment request.  If you log in, you will then see these requests on your calendar.
  7. Double click on event requests (they will be green) and you will have the option to Approve or Decline.  Your client will be notified of the decision.  If approved, the appointment will stay on your schedule and turn from green to blue to signify going from an appointment request to a confirmed personal training appointment.  If declined, the appointment will be removed from your calendar.
  8. To edit an appointment, double click on it and make changes.  Your client will see the changes in their schedule and be notified via email.
  9. To delete an appointment, double click on it and click delete.  Your client will receive a notification and the appointment will be removed from their calendar.

  • Can clients schedule and cancel appointments inside the App? Or is that only for when on the website?
    Thanks

      Clients can schedule and cancel appointments on the website from any device including phones and tablets. We currently do not have that capability built into the iOS app, but the client can just pull it up via the website on their phone instead. We are also adding it to the iOS app soon though.

        would be great if you can put more time not only from 5 am to 11pm , 24 hour would be perfect, and if you can make it more stable calendar such as google calendar.

  • Making the calendar link with Apple and google calendars would be a great plus.
