Calendar and working location
Use the calendar to set your working location, auto-book desks, and let colleagues know where you're going to be
The calendar is a central part of your Calven experience - it’s used to set your working location and see where your colleagues will be on any given day.
When you first start using Calven, you’ll be prompted to set your default weekly working locations. This will set your calendar on a recurring basis - but you can always edit your location for any given day later.
Once your working location is set, you’ll see it reflected in your calendar. Calven uses color to quickly differentiate where you’re working from:
In the mobile app you’ll also see a circular capacity indicator on each day - this is meant to show how full the office will be on that day, based on how many people plan to come in. A full circle means a high-capacity office.
You can also swipe down to expand the calendar and reveal your working locations for the whole month. To change your location for a given day, you either can tap the edit icon on the selected day in the calendar, or use the change button in your pass:
Using the calendar in the web app is very similar to the mobile app. While on the desk booking tab, your calendar for the week will appear in the top right. In web, you can use your pass to change your working location for the selected day:
You can also use the calendar icon to view your upcoming working location for the month, and quickly select a day further in the future:
