Schedule improvements on mobile
June 17, 2025
The Schedules tab on mobile is your home for managing on-call schedules. You can view who's on-call, create overrides, and request coverage. This week, we've refined its design to match other tabs in the app while adding several UX improvements.
The most noticeable change is the calendar view, which now highlights all days you're on-call. Instead of just showing daily information, you can now see your on-call periods across days and weeks at a glance.
As a reminder, you can subscribe to your on-call schedule in your preferred calendar app. Simply go to the web dashboard, select "On-call" in the sidebar, choose "Schedules," then "Sync Calendar" to get a subscription URL for GCal, iOS Calendar, or other apps.
We've also streamlined the navigation bar at the top. The current month is more clearly displayed, and we've relocated the schedules drawer to the right, next to its opening button.
The Cover Requests button has been removed since you can create both overrides and cover requests by dragging on the timeline. But if you prefer, you can still access it by opening the schedules drawer and clicking the "Create override" button at the bottom.
All these are rolling out with version 1.9.14.
What else we’ve shipped
