The shared calendar for your whole life

Your 9am class. That evening shift. Someone's birthday drinks. The gym (supposedly). Your mom asking about Sunday. That thing you said yes to weeks ago and haven't thought about once.

It's all in your head, in about six group chats, and in a calendar nobody else can see. So no, you don't know if you're free Thursday. And you've got no idea if anyone else is. But Howbout does.

Howbout puts it all in one place. Yours, theirs, everyone's. Find the gap and lock it in.

The shared calendar in Howbout showing a full month of plans. Add your work, classes, shifts and birthdays, and share it with the people you choose.

Your time in one place

Everything in Howbout lives on the shared calendar. Your shifts, your seminars, your sister's birthday, the gym class you're definitely skipping.


Stop keeping it in your head. Add it to your calendar and everyone you’ve shared those plans with can see them too, so nobody has to ask.

The availability view in Howbout, the shared calendar app for friends and couples. Instantly see who's free, who's busy and who's a maybe on any date.

Stop asking "when are you free?"

You know exactly what happens. Two people leave you on read, two more ghost you and the one who says any time works then says they’re busy.

Howbout shows you who's free, who's busy and who's a maybe for whatever date you're thinking. Works the same for six friends and a Saturday as it does for you and your boyfriend planning date night.

The plan page for Howbout, the shared calendar app for keeping up with friends. Make plans, see availability, and actually find time together.

Plans that don't die in the group chat

Someone says Friday. Three thumbs up. One "where?". Nobody answers. Then it's Sunday.

Put it on Howbout and it's a real plan. Name, place, time, and all the stuff people were going to ask you anyway. You can see who's actually coming. And Howbout does the reminding, so you're not the group chat's unpaid PA.

The chat inside a Howbout plan. Every plan on the shared calendar has its own group chat for photos, videos, tickets and all the details.

Every plan gets its own chat

The "what time we going". The "where are you". The debrief, obviously.


It all lives in the plan. Photos, videos, GIFs, tickets, that QR code someone sent at 1am and never mentioned again. So no more scrolling back three weeks for a screenshot of a screenshot.

A group page in Howbout, the shared calendar app for friend groups, families and roommates. See upcoming plans, group availability and your bucket list.

Keep up with all your groups

Your friends. Your family. Your housemates. Your run club. You and your girlfriend. 

You've already got a group chat for all of them. Now they've each got a calendar too.
 

Privacy settings in Howbout, the shared calendar app for friends. Choose who sees each plan, share with Close Friends only, or just show as busy.

Keep the private stuff private

Some plans, you’re happy with everyone seeing. Others? Just the girls. But some (like the 2nd date you haven’t told anyone about), that’s just for your eyes only. 


You decide, everytime. Friends, Close Friends or just you.

So you're not losing details, you're not double booking, and you're not standing outside the old place texting "here?" to nobody.
