# A band scheduling app that actually works for musicians

A band scheduling app that puts gigs, rehearsals and member availability on one shared calendar. Stop chasing responses in group chats. 14-day free trial—no card required.

## Scheduling a band by group chat is chaos

You propose a rehearsal date. Three people reply, one goes silent, someone else suggests a different day and by the time you reach a decision the thread is 80 messages deep.

Shared calendars help with the "what" but not the "who"—they don't tell you which members are actually free for the date you're considering.

## See availability and events on one calendar

The Band Planned combines a shared gig and rehearsal calendar with member availability. Before you book a date, you can see who's free and who's not—no polling the group chat.

Members log their unavailable dates once. When you create an event, the app flags conflicts automatically so you can pick a date that works before you send invitations.

### Shared event calendar

Gigs and rehearsals with load-in, soundcheck, doors and performance times.

### Availability-first scheduling

Members mark unavailable dates; conflicts show up when you plan.

### RSVPs

Members confirm yes, no or maybe for every event.

### Calendar sync

Add events to personal calendars with one tap.

## Fewer messages, faster decisions

Instead of three rounds of "are you free next Thursday?", you see availability at a glance, pick a date that works and move on. The band spends less time coordinating and more time playing.

## Frequently asked questions

### How do members log their availability?

Members open the Availability page and mark dates they cannot make it. The band is considered available by default—members only log the dates they're unavailable.

### Can we sync events to Google Calendar or Apple Calendar?

Yes. Each event generates a calendar link that members can add to their personal calendar with one tap.

### What happens when someone is unavailable for a proposed date?

The app flags the conflict when you create the event so you can choose a different date before sending invitations.
