Why Use a Shared Calendar with the Whole Family?

Whatever your family pattern, family life requires organization! There is nothing like a practical and useful tool for everyone: the shared calendar! Free, accessible online and available on all smartphones, why has the shared diary become the best "friend" of families and an efficient "relay" to relieve one's mental load?

Benefits of an online shared calendar

Easy to access (everything is online), centralized (only one tool but full of possibilities) and accessible to everyone (parents, grandparents, nanny, etc.), the shared calendar allows to better distribute responsibilities! The organization no longer relies on one person (the famous mental load!), but on all users connected to the family schedule.

The online calendar is easy to access

Today, online calendars are downloadable on most stores in free or paid version (under iOS on App Store, Android on Google Play, etc.), and available from any smartphone, computer or tablet. At home or on the go, at work or on vacation, the online calendar is always at your fingertips! You can check in real time if dad will be available for the pediatrician's appointment, block a lunch with grandma for the kids' birthday, and even book a time slot for self-care!

It can be available to everyone

The whole family can check the schedule! As soon as a user schedules an event, everyone knows about it. Activities, appointments, deadlines and changes are visible at a glance.

Of course, you remain the "master of the game" - commonly referred to as the "administrator" - to add or remove people and manage access rights (full access, access for consultation, edition, etc.).

A centralized space

Contacts, documents, lists, maps, everything is centralized in the online family calendar to facilitate the organization of activities and appointments. The online calendar also allows you to add important events, such as birthdays or dates to celebrate (mother/father's day, wedding anniversary, etc.). Simply create alerts to prepare for the event, and attach other features such as lists of gift ideas, useful numbers, meal planners, … Oops I forgot" will no longer be part of your vocabulary!

When the shared calendar is well used, it is noticed that responsibilities are better shared. It is also a good way to encourage dads to be more involved in the family's daily life, thanks to better communication and less tension!
