    Shared family calendar & planning

    Plan a shared family calendar with clear responsibilities and helper availability.

    Create the household plan, keep coverage and transport separate, and use shared availability signals when choosing who can help. A schedule screenshot or photo can become several items for review, while the Schedule Conflict Warning highlights overlapping bookings for the same child.

    Create your household See the Calendar workflow

    Parents plan the household. Helpers respond to the assignments and requests they are allowed to access.

    Cover needed

    Coverage

    Choose a Parent or request a linked Helper.

    Pick-up

    Transport stays separate from event coverage.

    Interactive example only. It switches between two synthetic account views and does not create a Calendar entry, send a request, change access, or connect an external calendar.

    Detailed product walkthrough

    See how one Calendar entry becomes a shared handoff.

    The product example above separates the Parent and Helper views so the response never looks like a Parent confirming on someone else's behalf. The activity, coverage, and transport remain distinct parts of the plan.

    Ordinary Calendar entry

    Create the school run, appointment, sport, or family commitment in the household Calendar.

    Linked Helper response

    A request remains pending until the invited Helper accepts or declines it.

    Separate transport

    Bring and Pick-up can be assigned or requested independently from coverage.

    Screenshot or photo planning

    Turn one schedule into several planning items.

    Choose a screenshot from your phone or take a photo of a printed schedule. LoopUsIn prepares a list for you to check and edit before anything is created.

    Choose the schedule

    Use a screenshot from a message, website, or digital calendar, or take a clear photo of the printed page.

    Check every item

    Review each name, date, time, and location. Correct anything that needs changing.

    Choose where it belongs

    For each item, choose Family Calendar, My Calendar appointment, Parent reminder, or Don't save.

    Confirm the list

    Confirm only when the list looks right. Nothing is created before you confirm.

    Schedule Conflict Warning

    See when two bookings for the same child overlap.

    A Schedule Conflict Warning highlights when two active Family Calendar bookings for the same child overlap. It is information, not a block: you can still save.

    Choose Review conflict to compare the bookings. Edit or remove one to resolve the overlap, or keep both and choose Mark as reviewed. This hides the warning for the household. LoopUsIn never changes either booking automatically.

    This warning checks bookings for the same child. It does not compare different children or expose private connected-calendar details.

    Plan the week without over-sharing

    The household plan and your personal availability have different jobs.

    Family Calendar keeps shared commitments in view. My Calendar brings together your responsibilities, lightweight appointments, and the Event workspaces that involve you—without turning one type into another.

    Useful calendar views

    Use Month for the shared overview. Week and Day add timing detail when those views are available to your household.

    Recurring routines

    Set a repeat pattern for a new event, then choose carefully whether an edit changes one occurrence or the whole series.

    Private by design

    Connected-calendar items remain private. The household receives busy information for planning, not titles or details.

    Connect calendars in both directions.

    Choose selected LoopUsIn entries to sync out to Google or Outlook, and import private Google Calendar busy time into My Calendar for better availability signals.

    Open the calendar connections guide

    Choose a Helper with useful availability signals.

    LoopUsIn can review the availability signals a Helper shares and connected Google Calendar busy time. This is advisory; private titles and details remain private.

    Which planning item fits?

    Use Family Calendar for a child or household commitment, My Calendar for your own appointment, and an Event workspace for a coordinated occasion with its own planning tools.
